EastEnders Romance Revealed: Tony Clay Enjoys Luxury Mayfair Date Night With Rarely-Seen Girlfriend Olivia
A Glam Night Out in London
EastEnders favourite Tony Clay, known to millions as Callum Highway, gave fans a very rare glimpse into his private life after stepping out for a lavish date night in London. The actor and his long-term girlfriend Olivia enjoyed an evening inside one of Mayfair’s most exclusive restaurants, CUT at 45 Park Lane.
The couple posed for a mirror selfie inside the luxury venue, both dressed in sleek winter ensembles. Tony reshared Olivia’s Instagram Story with a red heart emoji, a simple but romantic gesture that sent fans into a frenzy. The pair are rarely seen together online, and their appearance offered a welcome look into Tony’s life away from Albert Square.
A Relationship That Stays Out of the Spotlight
Though Tony plays one half of one of the soap’s most discussed on-screen relationships with Ben Mitchell, his real-life romance remains surprisingly private. Olivia last appeared on his Instagram grid back in December 2021, when he celebrated her 30th birthday and wrote:
“Happy 30th birthday beautiful girl. Love you.”
The couple, together for nine years, choose to remain mostly offline and focus on their life away from the cameras. They marked their six-year anniversary in 2022 with a sweet photo at home, seated in their garden with their dog Daisy. Tony captioned that moment:
“6 years. Love you! (and Daisy obvs).”
A Pricey Night at One of London’s Top Steakhouses
Their chosen venue, CUT, is known for serving some of the UK’s most expensive steaks. Some cuts exceed £100, while its Bone-In Tomahawk reaches around £340. The elegant restaurant is described as one of London’s finest, making it a fitting location for a rare public moment between the pair.

From Stage to Screen: Tony’s Journey to Walford
Tony, now 34, trained at the Arts Educational School in Chiswick, earning a BA in acting in 2013. Before joining EastEnders, he appeared in several screen and theatre roles, including a US tour with the Abbey Theatre in The Plough and the Stars.
He first arrived in Walford in January 2018, when his character was involved in a botched heist that left Mick Carter accidentally shot. Tony briefly exited the soap, only to return stronger a few months later. Speaking about his comeback, he told fans he was excited to continue playing “such a lovely role.”
Today, he remains a central figure on EastEnders, though little is known about his life away from the Square—making this date night sighting all the more special for fans.
