Controversy
Luke Tittensor’s career faced a major setback in 2009 following his involvement in a criminal case. In early 2009, he was charged with grievous bodily harm for an altercation in Rochdale, during which he injured a 16-year-old male, causing a fractured jaw. Luke Tittensor pleaded guilty to the charge and received a nine-month suspended sentence. Additionally, he was sentenced to 200 hours of community service and was ordered to pay £1,000 in compensation to the victim.
The conviction had significant consequences for his career; shortly after his plea, Emmerdale terminated his contract, marking his final appearance on the show in April 2009. The incident received considerable media attention, with fans and industry figures debating the severity of the legal consequences on his career.
Following this setback, Luke Tittensor continued acting but was notably absent from any long-term roles on mainstream television for several years. However, he rebuilt his professional reputation with roles in Waterloo Road, Our World War, and ultimately House of the Dragon.
