Lucifer's Tom Ellis has established a shiny new life for himself in Hollywood in the years since splitting from ex-wife, Tamzin Outhwaite.
The EastEnders star married the Welsh actor in 2006, just one year after meeting him through mutual friend James McEvoy in London, and went on to welcome two daughters into the world together.
However, the two actors divorced abruptly in 2014, after it emerged that Tom had been allegedly unfaithful in the relationship.
It's understood that Tom, 44, cheated on Tamzin, 52, with Australian actress, Emilie de Ravin, while he was filming the TV series, Once Upon A Time, in 2013.
Tamzin took aim at her ex-husband earlier this week in a now-deleted tweet - claiming she is still uncovering "more infidelities and lies that he committed"

The British actor proposed to the 37-year-old, who has written for Queen America and Tell Me Lies, in 2017, after two years of dating. The pair tied the knot in a woodland wedding ceremony attended by their family and close friends, including Tom's Lucifer co-stars, DB Woodside, Rachael Harris, Lesley-Ann Brandt and Kevin Alejandro.
Since then, Tom has posted a number of shout-outs to Meaghan on his Instagram. In June, he wished his "gorgeous wife" a "happy wedding anniversary" in a caption for a photo of him cuddling her at the gym. "You lift me up on a daily basis so I’m training to do the same to you," he added. "I love you my baby." The gushing tribute came just a couple of months after he treated fans to a glimpse of Meaghan's 37th birthday party, which was hosted by George Clooney's award-winning tequila brand, Casamigos.

As well as bagging a lead role in Lucifer, the Cardiff native has also enjoyed credits in Family Guy, Queen America and Robot Chicken.
On Wednesday, Tamzin revealed that she was is still hearing stories of Tom's alleged cheating that took place during their marriage. In a now deleted Twitter post, the soap star wrote, "Ten years since the father of my kids walked out on us for the final time. I still meet new people on jobs who reveal more infidelities and lies that he committed. But thankfully my heart and soul are clear and clean and I could not be happier right now."
The former EastEnders actress went on to delete the tweet, telling her followers on Thursday: "Thank you all for your messages re my now deleted tweet.I was marking the 10 year anniversary with pride,a feeling of triumph & genuine gratitude.I understand it has triggered some people.For anyone struggling,the most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself."
Tamzin, who shares daughters Florence, 13, and nine-year-old Marnie with ex-husband Tom, is currently dating boyfriend Tom Child, 32. "I really have never felt sexier, and I think that’s because [Tom] really gets that about me, that I’m in a stage in my life where I’m really comfortable and I’m really happy," the actress recently gushed about her partner of four years.
She went on to tell The Sun: " I adore him, we have a wonderful time. But if he wasn’t around, I wouldn’t be in the corner, on the floor, sliding down walls, crying. I would still have my complete life and he just enhances that, and that’s what’s lovely."
