Career

Tutor began her acting career in 1997, in the film Exposé,[10][11] playing Tiffany Holmes, a Congressman's daughter who is paid off by a donor after being mistaken for an escort, and realizes that she can blackmail people in political circles.[12] Her next role was as Prudence in the 1999 film, No Vacancy. Tutor started appearing in the real estate show, Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles (previously Million Dollar Listing), for its tenth season, which premiered in November 2017.[2] She currently stars alongside Josh Flagg and Josh Altman.[13] She is the first and only current female realtor to appear in the Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles main cast.[1][3][14][15]

Personal life

Tutor was previously married to Jason Maltas for 13 years, and shares two daughters with him. They lived in Brentwood, Los Angeles. In February 2018, Tutor filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences".[7][16] Maltas "initially made appearances on the Million Dollar Listing franchise, but they were short-lived because the couple was already struggling".[17] Tracy later confessed during the eleventh season of Million Dollar Listing premier that the hardest part of the divorce was not getting enough time with her kids. Her sister and sister-in-law are both interior designers, and her former husband is a residential contractor.[18] As of 2022, she is in a relationship with celebrity personal trainer, Erik Anderson, who alongside Tutor, have been recognised by multiple media outlets for their fitness attributes throughout the lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic.[19] According to Tracy on 8/22/23 Jeff Lewis Live, Tracy and Erik are on a break with Erik moving out the previous month.
