Tamzin Outhwaite burst into tears discovering she got less money than expected in mums will

Tamzin Outhwaite has told her followers that she cried when she received less money than expected from her mum's will.

The ex-EastEnders star, 50, opened up to her fans about how her mum Anna's "hard-earned money and assets" ended up in the "wrong hands" at the time, when she tragically died in 2018.

The TV star shared the situation with her followers in an Instagram post, showing off the shepherd's hut in the garden of her new Cotswolds home.

The sweet post came with a warning for fans, as she urged them to get their wills updated to avoid this happening.

"The view from the new shepherd's hut is just beautiful," Tamzin began. "After a tense journey from London, the unveiling of the long awaited hut should have been joyful. Unfortunately myself and two kids arrived crying from a family discussion.

"I used the money left to me when my mum died, which should have been more, but mum didn’t have a current will so her kids did not get what was meant for them.

"BUT, I did manage to get the most beautiful @redskyshepherdshuts for our place in the Cotswolds which has become my passion project, holiday home and business all in one.

"Moral of the story? Get a current will! If not all your hard earned money and assets could end up in the wrong hands."

She added the hashtags: "mumwouldhavelovedthis #stillgratefulthough #hutwithaview".

In the comments section, the star was reassured by her fans.

One person wrote: "She really would have Tamzin. That house would have been Anna’s spot. It is her spot because it’s your spot and she’s there with you every time you go! She’s in every decision you and the kids make. In all of our decisions in fact. Sending you love."

"Congratulations for your project! Wishing you the best time both with your family and business. You deserve," another wrote.

Tamzin's beloved mum died from an aneurysm at the age of 67.

"My mother's death was so shocking," the heartbroken star said in an interview at the time.

"She was my best friend and having her taken suddenly from me was the worst thing ever."
