Liesl Soards is as upset as she can be with her husband Tom Bins who confessed to making and possessing indecent images of children. Likewise, the comedian is also “bitterly upset” and hopes that his wife and the rest of his family aren’t “further harmed by [his] actions.”
This Liesl Soards Bio explores everything you need to know about Tom’s wife.
Meet Liesl Soards, Tom Bins Wife
Liesl and Tom Bins started their love story back in 2005. She still remembers their fourth date to Cleethorpes clear as a day in September of that year. Fast forward to 6 years of dating bliss, the duo then tied the knot on October 2, 2011.
On their 8th wedding anniversary, Liesl took to her FB to share a picture from the big day, captioned, “I forgot. Normally we both forget? But you remembered this year! Why do I feel portrayed? It’s our thing? We don’t do the couples thing…I think this is our 8th year married? It’s getting serious.”
Also, she added that she loved that particular picture because it looked so romantic “but actually [Tom} was whispering that it was weird seeing me with make-up on, on a beach.”
Thereafter, the duo went on to welcome three kids — Penelope, Henry, and Arthur.
Their oldest, Penelope turned 7 on April 4, 2021. She’s “funny, kind, and sassy with the dirtiest laugh.”
The middle child, Henry turned 5 on August 21, 2022.
Sadly, we don’t know their youngest Arthur’s age.
Now, coming to Tom’s scandal in 2023, it is indeed upsetting to know that a father of three little ones would make indecent images of children. But in his defense, the comedian said that his actions were accidental and occurred while he was under the influence of prescription drugs for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Tom confessed that in 2020, he “downloaded and deleted a very large amount” of adult NSFW content under the influence of Amfexa, a drug prescribed for ADHD. It was an error as they were within files of 18-plus content.
“I had not sought out nor wanted [the images in question]. I have no sexual interest in children, I have taken and passed a polygraph stating I have no sexual interest in children,” he said.
Also, he wants to take “full responsibility” and “punishment” and hopes his family “isn’t further harmed” by his actions.

Liesl Soards Family
Liesl Soards comes from a family of ten. Yes! her parents shared 8 kids. So, this meant they were financially unstable and what money little they had left over went into children’s education.
Sadly, Liesl’s parents have both passed away. Her dad, Arthur Ernest Soards took his last breath when she was 17, and her mother, Marcia Soards, lost her battle with breast cancer in 2011.
Recalling her wonderful mother, Liesl said that she had very old-fashioned views on parenting. She always believed a mother’s place was at home, and she would have been incandescent with rage if Liesl even suggested such a ludicrous idea of leaving a newborn at home to go to work. “She was quite mental. Sorry I mean eccentric as the Police and Neighbor’s used to say,” she added.
But overall, though conventional, Marcia lived life to the full.
So, to pay her a tribute, Liesl joined Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life in 2015 to run and raise £500.
