The former 'EastEnders' star - who played Mel Owen on the BBC One soap - took to Twitter to reveal she had to turn everything off in her house due to the issue.

She tweeted: "We have no heating or hot water as we had to call someone out late last night.Gas leak & carbon monoxide too.Have had to turn everything off. (sic)"

Tamzin also revealed her daughter Marnie, eight, had an "unrelated meltdown" and the pair spent half an hour lying down and embracing.

She wrote: "My 8 yr old just had an unrelated meltdown.We spent 30 mins lying down,in a cuddle doing & saying nothing. It was needed.Workout can wait. (sic)"

The 50-year-old star - who also has 12-year-old daughter Florence with her ex Tom Ellis - later updated fans about her heating and hot water issue, revealing they were both back on.

She shared: "Thank you all for your concern. Heating & hot water back on. (sic)"

This comes just two weeks after Tamzin suffered from internet issues, meaning her daughter had missed "vital" homeschooling classes amid the latest national lockdown.

She tweeted: "Ok @virginmedia I really thought we were getting somewhere but after spending another 26mins on hold today, you said my security details are wrong.

"They were correct when I spoke to a human yesterday. My daughter is missing vital classes due to WiFi not working properly (sic)"
