'I’d just knocked them up on a sewing machine. I thought, "Hang on, maybe I should give this a go properly"'.

Tamzin Outhwaite and her husband Tom Ellis have separated after seven years of marriage.

A representative for the couple confirmed the news to the Mail Online, revealing that the couple will 'remain friends.'

The former EastEnders actress and her husband, who stars in hit show Miranda, have been married since June 2006 and are parents to two young daughters.

A statement released on behalf of the couple read:'Tamzin Outhwaite and Tom Ellis are sad to confirm they have separated.

'They continue to support each other as parents and will remain friends. They ask for sensitivity at this difficult time.'

The couple, who have both starred in EastEnders, got married a year after meeting through mutual friend James McAvoy back in 2005.

It was only in March this year that Tom, 34 revealed how his life changed forever on the day he set eyes on his 42-year-old future wife: 'My life changed in 2005 on the day I met my wife, Tamzin Outhwaite', he wrote in a piece for the Mail Online

Happy families: Tom and Tamzin are parents to Marnie Mae, 1 and four-year-old Florence

'She was in a play called Breathing Corpses with James McAvoy, one of my best mates from drama school.

'I knew who she was and I’d fancied her quite a bit when she played Melanie Owen in EastEnders.

After spotting Tamzin in a bar a few days later, Tom revealed that they pair 'chatted together for the rest of the night.'

'I gave her a lift home and told her I’d love to see her the next day...After just a couple of weeks, I already knew she was the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.'

The couple's split comes just one year after they welcomed their second child, a daughter Marnie Mae Ellis, a younger sister for their four-year-old daughter Florence.

In 2000, Outhwaite split from her fiancé Marty Benson, before embarking on relationships with Ali G's DJ Steve Ellington and snowboarder Jamie Baker.

Ellis has a daughter Nora, from a previous relationship.

Tamzin will be seen next in BBC drama New Tricks, taking over from lead Amanda Redman.

Redman's character, Detective Superintendent Sandra Pullman, will be replaced by the ex-EastEnders star, who will appear on screens towards the end of the new series as DCI Sacha Millard.

She will play the latest new recruit to the show who is in charge of the team of retired police officers looking into unsolved crimes.

She said earlier this year of her new project: 'I'm delighted to be joining the cast at such an exciting time - I've been a huge fan of the show for years - and can't wait to be working with the amazing cast and crew.'

Tom meanwhile has been busy shooting his lead role in ABC pilot Gothica, where he will play Dr Victor Frankenstein alongside Beauty and the Beast's Chris Egan in the modern day supernatural thriller.
