EastEnders' Scott Maslen poses with rarely seen son who 'looks like his twin brother'

EastEnders star Scott Maslen stunned his fans as he posed with his rarely seen son.

Many were left thinking they were seeing double as the father and son enjoyed some quality time together.

The proud dad jetted off to Barcelona to visit his son Zak, where the duo joked about their likeliness.

Posting on social media, Scott and Zak could be seen walking through the city streets after doing a spot of shopping.

Yet, they clearly have very similar tastes as they both wore navy T-shirts, cream chinos and white trainers.

Acknowledging their similarities, Jack Branning soap star dad Scott wrote: "Twinning with the son."

As they strolled along, Zak, 22, explained how he was the boss for the trip.

"Nice being with dad, in my home not his. He is on vacation so I am in charge," he said as he cheered into the camera.

Scott, 51, captioned the video: "Barcelona with @zakacraka Sure I’ll leave with an empty suitcase as he steals all my clothes again. Love this city…"

Fans were quick to point out how much the pair resemble each other as one wrote: "Look like twins mate."

Scott hit back: "cause he’s in my clobber!!"

" Mini me!! He’s just like the Scott I met all those years ago doing test shoots," added Neil Moodie.

Another fan gushed: " Looking more like brothers then father and son."

"My goodness. Twinning never looked so stylish," commented someone else.

Scott shares his son with famous DJ Estelle Rubio, who is also a music producer and singer.

The couple got together in 1999, welcomed their son Zack in 2001 and tied the knot back in 2008.

Estelle has made a name for herself in the music industry and counts a number of celebs amongst her friends, including including Sophie Ellis Bextor and Ronnie Wood's ex-wife Jo Wood.

Many of Scott's EastEnders castmates attended the couple's wedding, including Rita Simons, Dame Barbara Windsor, Patsy Palmer, Steve McFadden and his former on-screen wife, Samantha Womack.

Their domestic bliss is a far cry from Scott's EastEnders character Jack Branning's turbulent love life.

Jack arrived in EastEnders 2007 as the younger brother of Max Branning.

The character has a reputation for being a lothario and bedded many of the female residents in Albert Square.

He made his name playing DS Phil Hunter in ITV's The Bill from 2002 and 2007, which he left shortly before EastEnders.

The actor has also starred in The Royals and Heartbeat.
