Tamzin Outhwaite On Being A Single Mother

Tamzin Outhwaite has opened up about how she is coping with being a single mother.

Outhwaite, 43, became a single mother last year after her marriage to actor Tom Ellis came to an abrupt end. She has rarely discussed her personal life since the separation, but in a recent interview with the Daily Telegraph, the actress admits it has been a difficult transition.

She said: "It's tough working as a single parent, but I'm lucky enough to have chunks of time when I'm at home and a huge circle of friends and family, although my biggest extravagance is child care.

"It's not as if I'm struggling financially, my hat goes off to those who have that burden of sorry as well."

Outhwaite and Ellis, 34, first met in 2005 having been introduced by mutual friend James McAvoy. They married the following year and have two children together. Their first daughter, Florence, was born in 2008 and their second daughter, Marnie Mae, was born in 2012.

In August 2013, the couple released a statement confirming their marriage had come to an end. This was shortly followed by speculation that Ellis had been unfaithful to his wife.

The actress has never directly addressed the claims, telling the publication: "I can't talk about it. Of course, there's a part of me that wants to set the record straight, but I don't want to put any more stuff out there on to the internet for my children to end up reading."
