British actor Tom Ellis is best known for playing Lucifer Morningstar on the Fox-then-Netflix show Lucifer. His portrayal of the character is spot-on—a cocktail of wit, mischief, and a soft spot for Detective Chloe!
So, I was surprised that the actor is a father, not to one, two, or three, but four daughters in total from three marriages/relationships. But I’m more interested in Florence Elsie Ellis—the daughter he had with ex-wife Tamzin Outhwaite.
She’s out of the spotlight, but I dug deep to find as much information as possible about the Welsh star’s daughter. I’m ready to share my knowledge about her life, education, siblings, and more with you!

Florence Elsie Ellis Childhood and Education
Unfortunately, details about Florence’s childhood are scarce across the web, so here’s everything I could come up with:
In 2008, People announced the birth of Florence, two years after Tom Ellis and Tamzin Outhwaite tied the knot. As you can see, the only information released was that the baby was a girl named Florence Elsie.
We didn’t even get a picture to associate with the name. But that’s understandable, as the couple wants to maintain her privacy until she’s old enough to make her own decisions regarding her social media presence.
Another thing I learned is that Florence was born in London, UK. However, she stays with her mother and younger sister in Crouch End, North London.
Tom Ellis used to live with his family in the U.K. Yet, after getting a divorce from Tamzin Outhwaite when Florence was six for his alleged infidelity, the British actor moved to Los Angeles.
He and Florence’s mother share custody of their daughters, so he visits them when he can.
Regarding Florence’s education, no one knows much about where she went to elementary, middle, or high school. I’m sure that information is withheld for safety reasons, especially since she’s still a minor.
Florence Elsie Ellis’s Mixed Ancestry
Florence Elsie Ellis has a British-Italian heritage.
Her father, Tom Ellis, is from Cardiff, Wales, while her mother, Tamzin Outhwaite, has roots in Barga, Italy. Her Italian great-grandfather lived for a while in Glasgow, Scotland, after which he became a naturalized British citizen.
Then, he moved to Fishburn, England, and settled there, marrying an English woman and establishing a family.
Florence Elsie Ellis’s Siblings
Due to Tom Ellis’s adventurous dating life, his multiple marriages and relationships yielded four daughters as of 2024. That translates to three sisters from Florence’s point of view, two of whom are stepsisters from her father’s side.
1. Nora Ellis
Let’s start with Florence’s older sister, Nora, who was born on the 22nd of May, on May 22nd, 19, 2024 (and three years older than Florence).
Tom Ellis had Nora from a previous relationship with Welsh actress Estelle Morgan. They were college sweethearts, so Nora was born after Ellis graduated from The Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow.
Unfortunately, Tom and Estelle couldn’t maintain their relationship after Nora’s birth, so they parted ways.
He and his eldest daughter are pretty close, which I discovered by reading the caption he wrote for the picture he posted on her 18th birthday on Instagram. The actor commented:
“Happy 18th Birthday to my beautiful daughter Nora!!! You have grown into a wonderful young woman, and I am so proud of you. Enjoy sipping a slightly stronger beverage today.” He also inserted three heart emojis!
More interestingly, Nora appeared alongside her father on Lucifer’s season 5B finale, to the delight of fans who went crazy when they spotted her.
2. Marnie Mae Ellis
Marnie Mae Ellis is Florence’s younger sister from Tom Ellis’s marriage to Tamzin Outhwaite, so she’s her full-blooded sister.
I was born on the 1st of August 1st, four years younger than Florence, and I was 12 years old in 2024.
Nothing else is known about Marnie, aside from the fact that she was born only two years before her parents had called it quits. She now lives with Florence and their mother in the U.K.
3. Dolly Ellis-Oppenheimer
The latest addition to Florence’s extended family (or at least, step-family) is Dolly Ellis-Oppenheimer. Dolly was born on the 8th of NovemNovember 8th currently only a few months old.
Her mother is screenwriter Meaghan Oppenheimer, who started dating Tom Ellis back in 2015, which led to their marriage in 2019.
Many Ellis’s Lucifer co-stars attended the lakeside ceremony, including Lauren German, D. B. Woodside, Aimee Garcia, Rachael Harris, and more.
In 2023, Tom Ellis announced the birth of his precious bundle of joy through Instagram. He posted a picture of her in a hospital bassinet, looking down at her with his wife with adoration in their eyes.
His caption read:
“Our daughter Dolly Ellis-Oppenheimer was born on November 8th, anNovember 8the hours of being alive, she single-handedly ended the SAG strike. We love her. Huge thank you to our amazing surrogate.” Again, he added a heart emoji!
Florence Elsie Ellis’s Relationship with Parents
Even the most annoying celebrity gossip websites or magazines don’t have any rumors about Florence Elsie Ellis’s relationship with her parents. Do you know what that means?
Yup. Things will likely cool between her, her parents, and her three siblings, which is always good to know!
I came upon an interview that People did with Tom Ellis in 2016, in which he talked about how his daughters dealt with him being a famous actor. His kids couldn’t be less interested in his rising popularity.
They don’t exactly hate his fame, they’re just unimpressed!
One of the funniest quotes by Tom Ellis pretty much sums the situation up as he said, “My kids are the least impressed about any work that I do, which is quite amusing. Time and time again, if I’m on the telly, I’ll go: “Look, it’s Dad on the telly,” and they’ll sort of look… give it a cursory glance and then carry on with what they’re doing ‘cause it doesn’t faze them at all.”
It’s adorable, though, since they’re die-hard fans of him as a dad but not so much as an actor!
Florence Elsie Ellis’s Parents’ Net Worth in 2024

Of course, Florence still goes to school, so let’s unearth her parent’s net worth until she’s old enough to build her own fortune. (I promise I’ll be there to uncover all the details of her wealth when the time comes!)
Tom and Tamzin are millionaires, having entered the acting industry in 2000 and 1993, respectively.
Tom is allegedly worth $6 million and is rumored to have an annual salary of $1 million, not to mention he got around $50,000 per episode while doing Lucifer.
Tamzin’s net worth is estimated to be $8 million. Her primary source of income is her acting career, especially her role in EastEnders between 1998 and 2019. She also invested in real estate, contributing to her wealth.
The Bottom Line
Florence Elsie Ellis is Tom Ellis’s daughter with his former wife Tamzin Outhwaite. Born to two famous TV stars, I suspect she’ll soon discover a liking for being an actor.
Who knows, maybe she’ll seriously consider pursuing an acting career and grace our screens with her presence!
When she does, we’ll finally know all the details regarding her education, hobbies, and achievements. But most importantly, we’ll get to follow her on social media and wake up to daily updates to satisfy our celebrity obsession.
