"It was amazing being on set with my wife and I'm very proud of her."
When it comes to DC Comics, few television series have taken off quite like Arrow. The series, which follows billionaire playboy character Oliver Queen through his evolution to gritty hero Arrow, captured a huge fan following with actor Stephen Amell as its lead.
But for Stephen, the set of Arrow isn't just a workspace. In fact, a very important element from his home life has joined him in front of the camera. That would be his wife, Cassandra Jean Amell, who starred alongside Stephen in his iconic DC role. Here's what we know about his wife and the sweet family they've started together.
They welcomed their first child, a daughter they named Maverick, in 2013. Things weren't always smooth sailing for the duo. They had a public altercation in 2021, but seemingly patched things up and welcomed their son Bowen in 2022.
With Maverick and Bowen to keep up with, the Amells are clearly busy. On social media, Stephen has shared pictures of himself doting on his wife and kids, proudly taking Bowen to a hockey game at one point to "check off a few of [his] Canadian dad prerequisites."
On Cassandra's social media, you'll find more of the same, albeit from a different perspective. She also shares photos and videos of their family out and about, showcasing their grand adventures and the fun they apparently get up to.
