Tina O’Brien was flooded with praise as she stepped out with her new man on holiday
Coronation Street’s Tina O’Brien has cosied up to her new partner in a series of sun soaked snaps. The soap star is renowned for her role as Sarah Platt on the long-running ITV show.
Tina regularly shares updates from her life away from the screen on Instagram. Earlier this year, she split from her husband, Adam Crofts, who she was married to for seven years, and shares one son with. The 42-year-old has taken to social media today as she went Instagram official with her new partner, Adam Fadlé.
The happy couple have enjoyed a romantic trip to Zante and shared pictures together against the backdrop of the beautiful Greek sunset. She said: “Sun,sea and a bit of us.”
Tina’s co-stars took to the comments to wish the couple well. Samia Longchambon, who plays Maria Connor, said: “Gorgeous.”
Sally Carman, who plays Abi Webster, posted: “So here for this.”
Other fans took to the comments to wish Tina well as she stepped out with her new man. Hazel said: “Beautiful pictures @tinaob83 & what a beautiful island Zante is, I’ve been there many times.”
Claire posted: “Gorgeous @tinaob83 you look incredibly happy”
Tina also shares a daughter named Scarlett with ex-boyfriend, Ryan Thomas, who played Jason Grimshaw in Corrie. Tina and Ryan got together in 2003, just after she ended a year-long romance with their fellow Coronation Street star and Ryan’s on-screen brother, Bruno Langley (Todd Grimshaw).
Speaking to The Mirror in 2007, she said: “It was five months later when I got together with Ryan and I was worried about it as he’s a friend of Bruno.
“But we worked hard to make sure there wasn’t any tension between the three of us. “Ryan and me are for keeps. I think we’ll be together for ever, fingers crossed. I don’t see myself with anyone else.”
She quit the soap that same year to have Scarlett, and had been planning to return before Ryan talked her out of it.
She told New! magazine: “Maybe he knew he was going to end it and didn’t want the hassle of us working together.”
She did eventually rejoin Corrie in 2015, and Ryan departed the following year, making the move to star in Neighbours. Ryan briefly returned to Corrie earlier this year to play a part in the exit storyline of Eileen Grimshaw star, Sue Cleaver.
