EastEnders star Tamzin Outhwaite shares adorable rare snap of toyboy boyfriend

EastEnders actress Tamzin Outhwaite has shared a rare snap of her younger boyfriend, Tom Child.

The mum-of-two, 52, returned from Italy to London on Monday when Tom surprised her at the airport.

Sharing a photo of her toy boy, who is 20 years her junior, she gushed: "He picked me up from the airport. Missed my baby love."

The pair look delighted to be reunited in the snap, with the documentary maker grinning in a hoodie and Tamzin, taking the photo, sporting a black leather jacket.

The couple have been dating for four years and enjoyed a trip to the Lake District in 2022, where they got their hiking boots on.

Sharing a photo of the pair, Tamzin looked delighted with life as she snuggled her beau in front of a stunning backdrop.

The seasoned actress was married to Lucifer star Tom Ellis, 44, with whom she shares daughters Marnie, 10 and Florence, 14.

Last year, the mum-of-two added that she was "very happy in her own skin", having admitted she was "controlling" and 'fighting hormonal battles' during her marriage to Tom, who she spilt up from in 2013.

The actor was allegedly caught cheating on his wife with Lost actress Emilie de Ravin before the pair called it quits, although Tamzin confessed that she wasn't "the best version" of herself during the relationship.

Speaking to the The Sun about beau Tom, she said: "I really have never felt sexier, and I think that’s because [Tom] really gets that about me, that I’m in a stage in my life where I’m really comfortable and I’m really happy.

"And I adore him, we have a wonderful time. But if he wasn’t around, I wouldn’t be in the corner, on the floor, sliding down walls, crying.

"I would still have my complete life and he just enhances that, and that’s what’s lovely."

Last year, the actress paid tribute to her partner with a series of sweet tweets in which she said Tom was a "dream stepdad" to her two children.

The New Tricks star explained in her first "gratitude tweet" that her youngest child was ill and that things were 'manic'.

However, she then revealed: "My love has done school runs, vet visits, made dinner, packed lunches, cleaned, dog walks, taken the car to mechanics and generally lightened my load to the max."

Tamzin posted a follow-up tweet addressing the idea that most men would do those jobs, saying Tom had actually done so much more.
