The actress is married to actor and director Bill Buckhurst, who has appeared in several major television shows over the years.

Viewers may recognise Bill as Mr Allcock from EastEnders, a role he played for seven episodes in 2010. His most recent acting credit is the 2017 action film starring Jackie Chan, The Foreigner, in which he played an airport police officer.
Bill has also spent some time behind the camera, having directed five episodes of Hollyoaks last year, as well as the 2018 drama film, Pond Life, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones.
While Sian remains fairly private about her personal life, it is known that the couple share two children, Ben and Archie, and are thought to reside in southwest London.
Sian sometimes shares glimpses of her home life on her Instagram page. In May last year, the actress marked her husband's birthday by posting a sweet selfie of the pair. The caption read: "Happy Birthday to this incredible man! We love the bones of you x."
Chatting about her home life in an interview with the Evening Standard in 2018, she said of Bill: "He's brilliant — we share everything. You just have to make it work, by hook or by crook."
