Van Outen and her boyfriend like to golf together. She tells Fit & Well Magazine, “We're like a comedy act on the course, because we do argue quite a lot! I get a good workout, swinging the club is brilliant for bingo wings.”

Van Outen revealed some of her favorite foods and wellness products to Hello! Magazine. She says that she likes to pack and eat granola bars. "Well, I'm always on the go so I don’t eat early in the mornings, I don’t wake up hungry and I'm always rushing around, like now I've just done the school run and then I'm straight into work mode! So that’s why the belVita bars for me have been amazing because I tend to do a lot of driving. I live in Essex and have to drive into London so they’ve got the new baked bar which is just delicious. I just have that in my bag and then whether I'm on a train or in a car, it gives me a chance to just quickly snack on it, then I will have a quick read of whatever script I've got to learn or my notes and itinerary for the day."
4. She Cut Down Her Alcohol

Van Outen tells Hello! Magazine that she has made a lot of changes to her routine. One of those changes is limiting her alcohol intake. "I just really try to start to look after myself,” she says. “So I cut down all my alcohol intake because I have to look after my voice.”
5. She Takes Vitamins

Another thing Van Outen has started to do more of is taking vitamins. She tells Hello! Magazine, “I try to eat really healthy, I start to take more vitamins. I had an injury on Dancing on Ice which was all publicised, so I've had to really make sure to try and take all my fish oils and calcium, because I cut out a lot of my dairy from my diet about two years ago.”
