We never actually met him, but he has appeared a lot in flashbacks.

Talking to Jack, she revealed the truth about what really happened to her husband, including why she blames herself for his sudden death.

We found out that during a heated argument about whether or not they should go for another round of IVF, the couple got into a terrible car accident.

Mark was killed instantly, hence why Mel feels she is to blame for him dying.
