Tina O’Brien – Coronation Street – Age 37

Tina O’Brien was a bright-eyed teen when she first appeared in Coronation Street in 1999. By the time she left, she was a beautiful twentysomething on the arm of her on-screen and real-life boyfriend Ryan Thomas. Unfortunately, the couple, like their characters, didn’t last.

When she made a comeback to the cobbles in 2015, she was already a mother to daughter Scarlett, who she shares with her ex, Thomas. She began building her family in the years that followed. O’Brien is now a mom to two kids and is married to personal trainer Adam Crofts. She balances family life with her role as Sarah Platt on Coronation Street.
