Adam Thomas became a household name thanks to his roles in Waterloo Road and Emmerdale.

At just 17, the actor gained fame for playing Donte Charles on the BBC show drama, before taking on the role of Adam Barton on the ITV soap. Now 36, the ex-soap actor is stepping into a new venture, starring alongside his brother Ryan in the exciting new show, 99 To Beat.

The programme will see 100 contestants participate in physical and mental challenges, aiming to avoid finishing last in each round while competing for a £25,000 cash prize.

Now, let’s take a glimpse into the star’s home life, featuring his devoted wife and talented children.

Outside of his career, Adam is happily married to his wife Caroline Daly, who he began dating back in 2008. The pair tied the knot in 2017, marrying in a stunning ceremony in Delamere Manor, Cheshire, surrounded by their loved ones.

Caroline, a professional dancer and owner of the ABCD School of Dance and Drama, has had a successful career in the arts. She and Adam first crossed paths in 2007 when he was 19 and starring in Waterloo Road.

With the couple recently celebrating their seven-year anniversary, Thomas previously opened up about their strong bond. While appearing on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2023, the dad-of-two confessed he had missed his wife dearly, and said that they had no concerns that the show’s infamous curse, which causes couples to split up, would affect them.


He admitted: “Absence definitely makes the heart grow fonder because I’m constantly ringing her going, ‘God, I love you so much’.” He added: “She just rang me, crying, going, ‘You don’t know how much it means.’

“I’m so used to being at home all the time as well. We are definitely missing each other. It’s the biggest emotional rollercoaster you could possibly ever imagine. I never in my wildest dreams thought that it would be as tough as it is.”

In September 2023, the Emmerdale actor opened up about battling a secret health issue – rheumatoid arthritis. It had been a tough year for him, but he was incredibly grateful for the support of his family.

Adam shared a post on his Instagram at the time, saying: “Big thanks to @carolinethomas23 and the kids for sticking with me through this journey. I know it was challenging at times, but hopefully, we were heading in the right direction!”

Their kids are already proving to be pretty talented too, frequently featuring on their parents’ Instagram. Teddy is following in his dad’s footsteps, landing a role in Waterloo Road, while Elsie is already taking the dance world by storm, winning competitions.
