In news that will shock Albert Square fans, the soap legend, who’s played Ian Beale for 36 years until 2021, has liquidated X L Management, the main vehicle for all his telly earnings.

The 54-year-old put the business into a "members’ voluntary liquidation" on 17 January, where a liquidator is appointed to formally close a solvent company.

Adam is the main shareholder in the firm, with between 50 and 75% shares, with his ex-wife Beverley owning 25-50%. According to the declaration of solvency filed at Companies House, the company’s debt includes owing HMRC £260,720 and accruals £20,012.
