It helps that Tom’s a fitness instructor. He’ll say: ‘You’ll need to sweat today’. “We’ve only been together a year and three months or something. It’s a lovely position to be in, to be appreciated and loved. He makes me very happy.” Tamzin has been with Tom for over a year (Credit: Instagram @glamzin) Tamzin – who reprised her role as Mel in 2018 after initially portraying the character from 1998 to 2002 – recently admitted that her two daughters, Marnie, six, and Florence, 10, are sometimes allowed to tune in to the BBC One show. She said: “When I’m not carrying a gun or a knife, they can watch it. Occasionally, if it’s fun, they can watch it. “They’d rather watch this with us having a chat being ourselves, obviously. And they’d rather watch Dancing on Ice.” Hunter killed Mel’s husband Ray (Credit: BBC) Read More: Danny Dyer punched Lee Ryan in the face when they first met on set The actress also revealed she relished shooting the intense scenes in which she helped her son – who killed her cheating husband Ray Kelly – cover up his murder by burying the dead body. Tamzin admitted she felt like she was in a “horror” movie. She said: “I felt like I was in a horror because there are guns and the lighting is from above and it’s really pitch-back and so you feel like you are in a completely different job, there’s catering in your trailer, it’s lovely!” Leave us a comment on our Facebook page @EntertainmentDailyFix and let us know what you think.
