Tamzin Outhwaite reveals daughter cries for her biological dad – as she pays tribute to her toyboy partner
EASTENDERS star Tamzin Outhwaite has revealed how her daughters cry for their biological dad, her ex-husband Tom Ellis.
The actress has since found love again with her toy boy partner Tom Child - who she gushed over for being great with her two girls.
Tamzin, 51, took to Twitter to detail how she had been caring for her youngest daughter Marnie, nine, as she had been unwell.
The former soap star explained that the youngster had been "crying" because she "missed her biological dad" Tom.
She gushed that her beau Tom, 31, had been helping her care for Marnie and older daughter Florence, 13, since they got together.
"Gratitude tweet," Tamzin began. "My youngest is ill, my schedule has been manic - my love has done school runs, vet visits, made dinner, packed lunches, cleaned, dog walks, taken car to the mechanics and generally lightened my load to the max."
Adding how her toy boy did everything with "kindness and a smile", she hit out at her ex for not being around when their daughter was sick.
"He also moved to the spare room so I can sleep with my nine year old to check her temp and give her meds," Tamzin went on.
