Tamzin Outhwaite has fuelled rumours that she has split from boyfriend Tom Child.
The actress, 53, spoke out about ‘not needing the commitment of another human being’ after months of not posting the actor, 33, on social media.
She has been dating Tom, who is two decades her junior, for six years, after they met at a yoga class in 2017.
Tom and Tamzin were last seen looking very much in love on their respective Instagrams in November 2023, but have not been mentioned since.
EastEnders star Tamzin recently said she could relate to her new character Sylvie in Channel 5 comedy drama The Wives.
Tamzin Outhwaite, 53, has fuelled rumours that she has split from boyfriend Tom Child, 33.
The actress spoke about ‘not needing the commitment of another human being’ after months of not posting the actor on social media
She said: ‘I love the freedom that Sylvie has, and that’s something that comes with age.
‘Know yourself, be a free spirit and not need the commitment of another human being.’
Tom moved in with Tamzin and her two daughters, as she previously described him as “the best” stepdad.
Tamzin shares daughters Florence, 15, and Marnie, 11, with ex-husband Tom Ellis, to whom she was married from 2006 to 2014.
The marriage is believed to have ended in 2013 after the 45-year-old Lucifer star confessed to having an affair with actress Emilie de Ravin while they were working together on Once Upon A Time in 2013.
In July last year, Tamzin claimed that the actor had “he abandoned” her and their children and that she was still discovering “more infidelities and lies that he committed” in a quickly deleted tweet.
She wrote: ‘It’s been ten years since my children’s father left us for the last time. I still meet new people at work who reveal to me more of his infidelities and lies.
‘But thankfully my heart and soul are clean and clear and I couldn’t be happier right now.”
She has been dating Tom, who is two decades her junior, for six years, after they met at a yoga class in 2017.
Tom moved in with Tamzin and her two daughters, as she previously described him as “the best” stepdad.
Tamzin rose to fame in 1998 playing fan-favourite Mel Healy in EastEnders, until her exit in 2002.
He then returned to the BBC soap in January 2018, before eventually being killed in a dramatic high-speed car chase with Sharon Watts in November 2019.
Tamzin’s other notable roles include Sergeant Jo McDonagh in Red Cap and Chief Inspector Sasha Miller in New Tricks.
