Ross Kemp was set to join the Oceangate submersible expedition to film a documentary series - but pulled out over safety fears.
The former EastEnders star cancelled his trip after the expert production company he was working with said it was "not considered safe". It comes after US Coastguard confirmed yesterday that all five people onboard the missing Titan submersible had sadly died.
The vessel, which was travelling to the site of the Titanic wreckage, lost contact with its mothership shortly after launching on Sunday. A huge search effort was mobilised, with rescue crews hoping that the sub was simply stuck, the Mirror reports.
