Former EastEnders actress Tamzin Outhwaite has candidly shared her feelings about being single following her breakup with her younger ex-boyfriend. The 53-year-old star, best known for her role as Melanie Owen in the BBC soap, admitted she's in no rush to jump back into the dating scene.
Life After the Split
Outhwaite, who was previously married to actor Tom Ellis, split from her toyboy partner last year after a brief romance. Despite the end of the relationship, the actress remains optimistic about love but insists she's enjoying her independence for now.
Focus on Family and Career
The mother of two has been focusing on her children and her thriving acting career. She recently appeared in the West End production of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and has several projects in the pipeline.
"I'm not actively looking for anyone," Outhwaite revealed. "I'm happy with my life as it is—my kids, my work, and my friends keep me busy."
Thoughts on Dating Again
When asked if she'd consider dating someone younger again, the actress laughed it off, saying, "Age is just a number, but right now, I'm not even thinking about it."
Fans have praised her for her honesty and down-to-earth attitude, with many taking to social media to support her single journey.
