Tamzin Outhwaite breaks silence on split from younger boyfriend Tom Child

Tamzin Outhwaite has made a huge realisation about her life going forward following her split with former boyfriend Tom Child.
Tamzin met Tom at a yoga class way back in 2017, and the pair fell in love, embarking on a near-7-year relationship – despite the 21-year age gap.
However, the pair decided to go their separate ways last summer, with the 54-year-old opening up about how she handled the break-up with her 33-year-old former beau. And it seems she was the one who initiated things.

Is Tamzin Outhwaite still with Tom Child?
Tamzin is no longer with Tom, despite them having been in a long-term relationship, and sharing a dog. But for her, there are no hard feelings. And just because she didn’t want to be with him romantically anymore, didn’t mean she didn’t want him in her life.
She opened up about the split on Hello Magazine’s Second Act podcast, and revealed she wants to focus on herself for a while, revealing how she initially brought up the breakup.
Tamzin said: “I just did six and a half years in a relationship with a man 20 years younger than me, who is still one of my best friends. I adore him. We are really close, but I had to say: ‘I’m in my phase where I need to be on my own now. I don’t want to share a bed and I adore you. I don’t want to lose you from my life’. But I wanted to be on my own.”
When Tamzin told Tom this, they looked at the options in front of them, and realised they still wanted to be in each others lives.
She admitted: “We share a dog. What do you do? Not be together and never see each other again? I didn’t want to never see him again. And we’re mates, so it really is great.”
