Rupert Sinclair Hill (born 15 June 1978, Southhampton) is an English actor known for several former roles in UK soap operas.
Rupert Hill started with small roles on television. He appeared in one episode of EastEnders as Robbie's half-brother Kevin Bolton, and also played a part in a music video by the band Haven.
Hill subsequently went into the ongoing role of Cameron Davenport in daily serial Family Affairs, a role he played from 2002 to 2004. He was then cast in Coronation Street, originating the role of Jamie Baldwin in 2004.
Hill played guitar in the now defunct band Shepherd's Pi which he formed with former Family Affairs co-stars Sam Stockman and Angela Hazeldine. He now leads a new group called Yellow Dog, who have performed several gigs in Manchester, London and at Bestival on the Isle of Wight.
In April 2007 it was announced by the media that the actor had quit his role in Coronation Street, a move which has left the street without a member of the Baldwin family for the first time in 30 years.
Hill is also part of a small comedy sketch group, Screaming Mess, where he co-writes and performs in many varied comedy sketches and parodies along with childhood friends Jamie Langrish and Marc Norris.
In July 2008, Hill appeared in four episodes of The Bill, playing a small time criminal shot dead during an attempted revenge mission armed with a sub-machine gun.
Hill is in a relationship with Jenny Platt who played his on-screen girlfriend Violet Wilson in Coronation Street. The couple reside in Manchester, where Hill co-owns, and is the landlord of The Castle Hotel, a pub situated on Oldham Street in the Northern Quarter. It was announced on This Morning that Rupert and Jenny are expecting a child together, 24 September 2009. Rupert has become a father to a baby girl named Matilda on Sunday 11 April 2010. She weighed in at 7 lbs 10oz and Jenny and Rupert are said to be thrilled.
