Actor Jon Bernthal was a part of "The Walking Dead" in its earlier seasons, starring as Shane Walsh, Rick Grimes' partner at the King County Sheriff's department and best friend, who begins an intimate relationship with Grimes' wife, Lori. Fans all witnessed his character change drastically from a caring person to a deceitful antagonist in Season 2 where he eventually meets his death at the hands of Grimes. Despite getting killed off early on in the show, Bernthal's character is still regarded as one of the best villains in the series. 

In real life, Bernthal is nothing like his Season 2 character. The actor is a devoted husband to his wife Erin Angle, a trauma nurse, who he met at a local bar, telling Men's Health, "I came over and was just rudely messing around, and I know this is the corniest thing in the world, but when I saw Erin, it was literally like angels were singing. I had never seen anyone so beautiful."

Bernthal is also a family man and has three children with Angle. When speaking to ABC News about becoming the Punisher, a Marvel character who loses his family, for Netflix's "Daredevil," he said, "There's no way I could even begin to tackle this role if I wasn't a father and a husband in my mind," adding, "You realize what it's like to love somebody more than yourself and be willing to give up your life for them in a heartbeat."
