It’s been a good week for Home And Away star Tammin Sursok.
The Australian actress, 39, lives in Nashville with her family and was left in shock on Monday after her eldest daughter’s school was closed during the shooting at The Covenant school.
Now, days later, Tammin has revealed that her family has been placed on a tornado watch as severe storms rage through Tennessee.
Posting to Instagram Stories on Saturday, Tammin filmed herself sitting on the couch at night worrying about the tornado, while her husband Sean McEwen and their two daughters, Phoenix, nine, and Lennon, four, slept.
‘So we’re still under a tornado watch, and my husband is asleep. All my family is sleeping. And I’m sitting here, just stressed out,’ she told her fans with a wry smile.

An hour later, the Pretty Little Liars star returned to Instagram with a video of her newly awakened husband setting up a “makeshift tornado shelter” in their guest bathroom.
