Tamzin Outhwaite makes major romance vow as she spills on toyboy split
Actress Tamzin Outhwaite has issued an update on her love life and the major change she is making going forward following her split from ex boyfriend Tom Child last summer
Tamzin Outhwaite has made a life-changing vow following the split from her boyfriend Tom Child after six years together. The actress, 54, met Tom, 33, at a yoga class in 2017 and their love blossomed away from their mats.
However, things were not meant to be between the pair as they went their separate ways last summer. Tamzin has been open about her struggle with love, having previously been married to actor Tom Ellis, 46.
They split in 2014 amid cheating allegations while Tom was filming Once Upon A Time with actress Emile De Ravin. After six years in a relationship with someone two decades younger than her, Tamzin has revealed she is now ready to be on her own.
Tamzin and Tom parted ways amicably and have remained one of each others best friends. Yet, after their split Tamzin has decided to make a huge change going forward in her love life with a very strict rule.
She told Hello Magazine: "He's still one of my best friends, and I adore him. But I had to say: ''I don't want to share a bed. I'm in a phase where I need to be on my own'."
Last year, Tamzin opened up to the Mirror about her newfound single status. 'I'm happy single,' she told us. 'There's a lot on! Life is really busy, throwing a relationship into that is a whole other thing.
"Freedom fills up my cup, freedom to do as you please is a lovely thing. That makes me happy.' Tamzin, who took part in the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special last year, said she is on a quest to challenge herself, build on things that make her happy and 'fill up my own cup'
'I'm just trying to stay open, get out of my comfort zone and do different things to help me grow,' she added. 'I'm on a bit of a mission at the moment. I want to do more things that give you fear because even going through the fear is important. That's where your growth happens as a person.'
Tamzin's change in pace began after the menopause hit while she was trying to juggle her busy life as an actress, a mum-of-two, and a doting daughter to her elderly father who lives 'at the end of the garden'.
She decided to throw herself into wellness, learning breathwork, stepping up her yoga practice and building a sauna in her spare room.
Tamzin said: 'Taking stock, taking a breath and retreating is something I've been learning to do so I can fill up my own cup then come back into my life and do everything that I do, which is keeping up a career, keeping up home, keeping up everything to do with my children and my dad, who lives with me at the end of the garden.
"It's making sure everyone is OK. I'm not a saint but juggling all the plates and a career on top of that can be quite stifling.'

Clothing and accessories brand GAP is renowned for its stylish garments, particularly GapKids and babyGap, which offer high-quality items for youngsters.

Within the GapKids section, they offer a variety of outfits, including this pink Lilo and Stitch cropped hoodie (£30), suitable for children aged 4 to 13 years old. The hoodie, also available in blue, is machine washable and could be the perfect choice for kids, given the current popularity of the franchise and film, according to the Mirror. For Barbie enthusiasts, parents can also snap up this Barbie sweatshirt and skort set (£40).

One reviewer expressed: "GAP clothing line is my choice every day... They are comfortable and look cool to wear! I have always chosen for my kids too since they were a baby till they are grown up." Another customer remarked: " High quality and reasonable prices." "Fast shipping and good exchange policy," commented yet another patron. However, opinions on the brand varied, as one shopper noted: "Good quality and good prices. Just not great." Similarly, another mentioned: "It is hit and miss." An additional review stated: "I couldn't fault the service I've had over the last couple of weeks. I placed three separate orders on different days, and each one came the next day."

'I was at Rod Stewart's Glasto set - there was something special you didn't see'
It was a family affair for Sir Rod Stewart as he returning to Glastonbury for the first time in over two decades. The crowd was packed with fans of all ages - with youngsters watching him power through a 90 minute set with their parents. There was no generation not represented amongst the thousands out in force for his performance. The Maggie May rocker, 80, pulled out all the stops as he headlined the Pyramid Stage for the Sunday Legends Slot - as the crowd lapped up his classics with special guests Ronnie Wood, Lulu and Mick Hucknull. But the real stars of the show were Rod's family, who mingled with fans and supported the legendary singer ahead of his big day. Rod was joined by Ronnie Wood, Lulu and Mick Hucknull (Image: William Dax / SWNS) Just hours before Rod took to the stage, his wife Penny Lancaster put on quite the show herself as she mingled with his fans in the VIP bar. The Loose Women star - and Rod's older sons, dressed in his trademark leopard print - looked every inch the proud family as they laughed and joked with people excited to see their loved one's big moment. Taking selfies with hardcore fans braving the heat to don Rod wigs and leopard print leggings, Penny was in good spirits as she caught up with pals before watching her husband's show. But Penny's work to ensure Rod's set went smoothly started way before today. Speaking to the Mirror ahead of the show, an insider revealed how Rod went to military-like lengths to ensure all went to plan. Already super-fit from swimming lengths in his pool four times a week, the star has been on a period of vocal rest to ensure his raspy voice is firing on all cylinders. Penny has been Rod's rock of support (Image: Getty Images) Says our mole: 'It's been quite hard as Rod is a chatterbox, but he knows he needs to preserve what's his biggest weapon…his voice. Rehearsals have been taking part this week with his whole band at a secret location with Penny a constant presence.' It seemed Rod wanted to give back to Penny while on the Pyramid Stage as he gave a touching nod to his supportive wife. Near the start of his show, he threw in the classic First Cut Is The Deepest. The tune by Cat Stephens was initially recorded by Rod in 1976. And he superbly entertained the crowd with it was again. But for eagle-eyed fans, it appeared as though he gave a sweet nod towards his wife of 18 years, Penny. While singing the line: "I still want you by my side," Rod pointed off stage and gave a wry smile. Rod couldn't have asked for better PR from his wife. If she is any representation of how he treats his followers, they're a very lucky fan base. READ MORE: How to see Glastonbury acts live this year after festival comes to an end Like this story?

Rod Stewart pays subtle tribute to wife Penny Lancaster during Glastonbury Legends set
Sir Rod Stewart took to Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage on Sunday for his Legends set giving a subtle nod to his wife Penny Lancaster as he played one of his hit songs. Glastonbury: Rod Stewart sings classic First Cut Is The Deepest Sir Rod Stewart appeared to pay a heartfelt tribute to his wife, Penny Lancaster, during his lively set at Glastonbury Festival on Sunday. The 80-year-old rocker captivated the massive crowd gathered at the Pyramid Stage in the scorching heat. The Maggie May singer powered through an energetic 90 minute performance, showcasing his iconic back catalogue while also including some timeless classics from other artists. Earlier in the show, he performed the classic The First Cut Is The Deepest, originally written by Cat Stevens and recorded by Rod in 1976, once again delighting the audience with his rendition, the Mirror reports. But it was eagle-eyed fans who spotted Rod's sweet gesture. It appeared as though he gave a heartfelt nod towards his wife of 18 years, Penny. While singing the line: "I still want you by my side," the rock legend pointed off stage and gave a wry smile. Earlier in the day, Penny was spotted posing with fans of her husband. The group, donning wigs to mimic the iconic rocker's signature look, took photos with the 54-year-old. During his electrifying set, Rod was joined on stage by fellow music legends Mick Hucknall, Ronnie Wood and Lulu. He also paid a heartfelt tribute to Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie, who passed away in November 2022, projecting her image on the big screen while performing one of her hit songs. Despite the standout performance, not everything went smooth sailing for the veteran artist. Before LuLu officially joined him on stage, Rod mistakenly introduced her during an earlier segment. While Ronnie Wood appeared promptly, LuLu was notably absent at the time, leading to a brief mix-up. The icon quickly retracted his comments and said 'oh LuLu is coming on in a bit' as Ronnie got his guitar and played for the massive crowd. LuLu did arrive moments later to sing the hit song Hot Legs with Rod in a gorgeous white suit. In another small mishap, Rod seemingly missed his timing during the iconic song Maggie May. The singer seemed to come in far too early as he sang the song, but it didn't stop fans from getting involved in the action. The rendition received the biggest singalong of his set for the large crowd, which was packed straight to the back. Despite the slight errors, Rod's performance was well received overall. One social media user took to X, formally known as Twitter, writing: "Like him or not. Rod Stewart has still got it!! He's a showman, great entertainer, and can work a crowd. You go Rod! ! Big shout out to his Band. #bbc #RodStewart #uk" Throughout the set, Sir Rod was forced to change his outfit multiple times due to the blistering heat. He first started the set in a white shirt and black jacket, before switching to a bright pink suit. He then finished the set in an emerald green outfit, showcasing his love for Celtic.
