Tammin Sursok has revealed that her young children share her bedroom because they are still ‘obsessed’ with her.
The former Home and Away star, who lives in Nashville with her TV producer husband Sean McEwen and their two daughters, Phoenix, 11, and Lennon, six, tells Stellar this week that the arrangement works for their family.
‘My kids are still obsessed with us. We all sleep in the same room. I was so anti sleeping in the same room’ the 41-year-old said.
‘Now everyone and the dog – everyone’s in the same room. Well, everyone’s got their own rooms’ she explained.
‘My 11-year-old has hers, my six-year-old has hers, the dog has her room… but we actually pulled another bed into the room.
‘My 11-year-old [daughter Phoenix] sleeps on that bed. The baby – we still call [six-year-old daughter Lennon] the baby – sleeps in the middle.

‘Sean sleeps on one side, I sleep on the other and the dog sleeps on the bottom. They won’t get out.’
Tammin says she was ‘so antsy in the beginning’ about the arrangement but now feels ‘the march of time’ passing and wants to make the most of these precious years when her kids want to be in her company.
She however admitted that it does make alone time with her husband a little more difficult.
‘People are like, what about intimacy with your husband? We have an office’ she said.
‘[The bedroom] doesn’t have to be the only place you have intimacy with your husband. Anyway, I digress’.
Last year, Tammin appeared on The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show podcast and took a moment to share a few saucy secrets about her marriage.
Tammin revealed to host Jessica Rowe that she has a high sex drive and needs to sleep with her husband regularly.
The topic of sex came up after Tammin admitted she was anxious to take medication for her anxiety because she fears it will dampen her sex drive.

‘I’m a very sexual person and I feel like I don’t want my sex drive to go. Anything to screw it up, we are not going there,’ the Pretty Little Liars star said.
Tammin went on to describe how difficult it is to maintain a sexual relationship with her husband with two small children, joking that the pair have sex ‘for five minutes’ once a week.
‘I can’t even believe I’m saying this, my poor husband’ Tammin joked of her candid confession.
‘We’ve had to lock ourselves in the closet because what are you going to do?’ she went on.
‘You’ve got little kids in the school holidays and it’s Fridays, which is where we try to have sex.’
Tammin also revealed that she views sex as ‘so much more’ than being a source of pleasure.
‘Sex to me is I’m like the most vulnerable I could possibly be with someone. And so for me, I need that to feel connected,’ she said.
‘If we don’t have sex over 10 days, like I’m very mean to him. He’s always like, ‘I can tell, I can tell’. I think it’s just because again, he becomes a roommate to me then,’ she added.
Tammin and Sean tied the knot in a dreamy Italian ceremony back in 2011.
Ten years later, the couple renewed their vows during a romantic beach ceremony on the Gold Coast.
