Personal Life and Girlfriend
Tommy’s father is a businessman by profession, and his mother is a homemaker. In January 2022, Tommy relocated to Brighton from Nottingham and hasn’t looked back. The seaside resort is the perfect location as it’s close to London.
For years not much was known about his relationship status. Over time he’s opening up more. In November 2022, Simons revealed to fans he is dating a girl named Molly and she appeared in a video on 7 May 2023.
