Tamzin Outhwaite, 49, goes makeup-free as she heaps praise on toyboy beau Tom Child, 29

She recently revealed she fears countless relationships will fail amid the nation’s COVID-19 lockdown. 

But Tamzin Outhwaite looked infatuated with her toyboy beau in a loved-up snap uploaded to Instagram on Thursday. 

The EastEnders star, 49, beamed as she heaped on the praise for her partner Tom Child, 29, as they continue to quarantine together amid the ongoing pandemic.

The pair, who have now been dating for two-and-a-half years, both kept it casual in lightweight T-shirts as they gazed at the camera with sunlight streaming down. 

Tamzin shared the heart-felt snap said: ‘This man by my side has cleaned, done home schooling, fed the dog, done the shopping, been my sound engineer, my whole crew for @dun.breedin, acted in this passion project, made me laugh, cooked, and kept our spirits up… EVERY SINGLE DAY! 

‘Perfect quarantine crew along with the kids.❤️ @tc_childie love you.’

The TV star’s post came after she explained fears that a number of romantic relationships may not go the distance as couples isolate together amid the coronavirus pandemic. 

Tazmin – who went into isolation with Tom on March 16 after the couple displayed symptoms – believes the crisis will prove to be a testing time for couples as they spend months locked in together.

She told The Mirror: ‘You do wonder when people come out of ­lockdown how many people will go, ‘That’s not for me.’ Or if others will propose and think, ‘If I can do that, I know I can be with you forever.”

However, when asked by the publication if she believed her own partner of two years had any plans to pop the big question, the blonde laughed as she responded: ‘I am not talking about that.’  

Elsewhere in the interview, Tamzin insisted she’s far from bothered by the 21-year age gap between herself and her personal trainer beau, who she she began dating after meeting him in a yoga studio. 

‘It’s not an issue,’ she said. ‘Once other people get over it, it’s not an issue for them. It’s something if it works, if the energy of it works, your ­connection works then nothing else really matters.’

Tamzin has two daughters, Florence, 11, and Marnie Mae, seven, with her ex-husband, Lucifer star Tom Ellis, 41.

The former couple were married from 2006 to 2014.
