After starting his career as Duncan in Byker Grove, Dec has gone on to carve out an impressive media career, presenting some of the biggest shows in the UK alongside his best friend Ant McPartlin.
As we gear up to watch him host yet another hit ITV show, with a line up including Tulisa, Coleen Rooney and Oti Mabuse, many viewers are keen to learn more about the Geordie icon.
Here’s everything you need to know about Dec from his age, where he’s from, his wife and children and his height.

TV favourite Dec was born on the 25th of September 1975 and celebrated his 49th birthday in 2024.
To mark this occasion, Ant shared a funny video with his bestie in which he gifted him a novelty birthday card which played a song for hours on end!
Who is Dec’s wife?
Dec is married to Ali Astall, with the pair tying the knot in 2015. Ali worked as Dec’s manager for more than a decade before the couple decided to embark on a romantic relationship in 2014.
Speaking about his wife, Dec told Express.co.uk: “We always hung out. When she was single and I was single we’d go out for dinner on Valentine’s Day together.
“Last year we went out as a couple. It was a little strange because we’ve had a working relationship for so long.”
How many kids does Dec have?
The TV star shares two children with his wife Ali. He is father to Isla Elizabeth Anne, born in September 2018 and son Jack Anthony Alphonsus in July 2022.
Dec opened up about becoming dad in his and Ant’s book ‘Once Upon a Tyne’, revealing: “Becoming a dad has completely transformed me.
“At first, like all expectant parents, I didn’t truly understand how much it was going to change me. I just thought it was another little person coming to live in the house… It opened up a whole other side to me, a side I didn’t know existed.”
What is Dec’s net worth?
Dec is estimated to be worth an impressive £31.1million, according to the Express. As well as his extensive presenting portfolio, Dec also co-owns production company Mitre Television with Ant, which produces the shows they work on.
The father-of-two is also owner of Hurley Promotions Ltd and Deecourt, which looks after his various brand partnerships.
