In 2008, Shepherd appeared in Ghosthunting with Coronation Street on the Isle of Man.^[5]

During his relationship with Shippey, Shepherd fathered a son with Sammy Milewski following a one-night stand.^[9] He initially denied paternity of the child at first, however after DNA test proved he was the father, Shepherd began paying child support for his son (born 2011), who has alternating hemiplegia of childhood (AHC).^[10]^[11] Shepherd has never made contact with his illegitimate son, and when asked, tends to say he only has two children, those he has with Shippey.^[12]
