Mr. Bean and daughter Lily Sastry
Although Rowan Atkinson is known worldwide for his roles in Mr. Bean, Blackadder, and Johnny English, his private life is also a regular topic of conversation. Rowan Atkinson was married to makeup artist Sunetra Sastry for twenty-five years. He met her on the set of the series Blackadder, where she did the make-up of the actors, in the eighties. The two married in February 1990 and had two children together: son Ben (1993) and daughter Lily (1995). Unfortunately, their marriage broke up in 2015. Soon after, news broke that the Mr. Bean actor had a younger girlfriend 29 years his junior, comedienne and actress Louise Ford. This new relationship generated quite a bit of tabloid fodder. Louise’s ex, comedian James Acaster, was also anything but happy about it. “I was abandoned for Mr. Bean,” James told a show. “I found out a year after our breakup. No one in all history has ever been abandoned for Mr. Bean.”
Rowan Atkinson’s (AKA Mr. Bean) daughter is named Lily Sastry. At first, it seemed that Lily Sastry would follow in the footsteps of her famous father. She had a few small roles from an early age. She was seen next to her father in Mr. Bean’s Holiday and Johnny English Reborn. She also took cabaret and singing lessons to get her showbiz career off the ground. Yet Lily now seems to have chosen to build a life outside the spotlight. Her last time on the red carpet was in 2011, at the side of her father and her mother (then still together.)
