Inbetweeners stars Hannah Tointon and Joe Thomas enjoyed a cute family day out in the sunshine as they headed to a London park on Sunday.

Hannah, 36, and Joe, 40, share a two-year-old daughter together who they welcomed in 2022. On Sunday, the pair took their little one on a relaxed stroll as the family of three soaked up the warm London temperatures. Hannah and Joe were pictured smiling as they appeared deep in conversation as actress Hannah pushed her daughter's pram.

The mum-of-one looked as stylish as ever as she donned a relaxed yet chic outfit. The actress rocked a double denim look and paired it with a classic striped t-shirt.

She finished off the look with a pair of oversized sunglasses. Meanwhile, her other half Joe wore a casual outfit for the chilled out Sunday stroll in the park.

Joe, who played the iconic character of Simon Cooper on the Channel 4 sitcom, appeared to want to lay low as he donned a yellow cap and a knitted navy jumper. The couple first met on the award-winning sitcom back in 2010 before they made the decision to move in with one another just two years later.

On screen, their characters' relationship ended in disaster following a rather awkward scene that saw Joe's character began to continually slap his manhood before exposing himself, resulting in Tara demanding he never contact her again.

However their relationship off-screen has continued to blossom with the pair often keeping their relationship out of the limelight. Throughout Hannah's pregnancy, the couple - who played Tara and Simon on the programme - had been convinced that they were expecting a baby boy after the ultrasound technician accidentally said: 'He'.

However, to their surprise, Hannah gave birth and they were greeted by a baby girl leaving the couple completely speechless.

Speaking on Ashley James' Mum's The Word podcast, Hannah's sister, former EastEnders star and Strictly Come Dancing contestant Kara said: "My sister's just had her first. What's funny is that on Joe's side there's only boys, even during the scan they accidentally said 'he' at one point, so they'd gone along thinking it's a boy.

"Everyone playing the shape game etc said she's having a boy, so when they eventually had a boy, it was really brilliant, but it knocked them for six. So they hadn't even decided on a girls' name, they left it as a surprise."

Since they decided to make their relationship official, Joe and Hannah moved in with one another in Central London and the actor proposed to his fiancée back in 2017.

Speaking about working alongside Hannah during an appearance on Lorraine in 2018 while promoting the comedy film The Festival, Joe said: "I've just got used to it, she's just in everything because my brain is so simple, I was just like 'Yep, there she is'. It went very well, I think."
