Coronation Street beauty Tina O’Brien appeared on ITV’s This Morning during the week, and fans were in awe of how ageless the star has remained throughout her career.
Best known for playing Sarah Barlow/Platt in Corrie, Tina appeared on the week-daily magazine show to chat about her character’s current storyline.
Chatting to Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary, Alison kicked off the interview by saying: “You don’t normally do daytime and we’re the people that you came to.”
“I absolutely love watching you two. Proper fan-girling right now,” she admitted.
“It’s lovely to have you. I did give Tina a little hug before and I have left my mark… I do apologise,” Alison said, pointing out the makeup mark she had left on Tina’s outfit.

But fans weren’t worried about the makeup stain Alison had left on Tina’s blazer and instead pointed something else out.
Tina first joined Coronation Street in 1999 when she was just 16 years of age.
In 2008 she took a seven-year break before catapulting back onto the cobbles.
And now as her character enters a huge Corrie storyline, fans reckon Tina looks no different from her first appearance at 38 years of age today.
Taking to Twitter to gush about the ageless soap star, one person penned: “Tina O’Brien hasn’t aged in 23 years #Corrie #ThisMorning.”
Another added: “Tina O’Brien just doesn’t age! #thismorning,” while a third said: “Awe, just love Tina O’Brien and her character. Her daughter is so cute. Tina doesn’t look old enough to have a daughter that age.”

Tina’s appearance on This Morning came weeks after she was accused of smashing up her ex Ryan Thomas’ car in a heated 1am row.
The ITV soap stars dated for six years until they split in 2009, and they even played on-screen couple Sarah Platt and Jason Grimshaw.
Earlier on in the month sources claimed that Tina attacked Ryan’s Range Rover at 1am last Sunday (February 27) when a heated row took a terrible turn.
Reports say that a wing mirror of Ryan’s flash Range Rover was broken off, as well as paintwork allegedly left scratched.
Ryan has claimed that his ex was the culprit behind his damaged car.

At the time a source told The Sun: “Ryan and Tina have a fractious relationship. They are not on good terms and that tension boiled over.
“Tina, who was at a pal’s house party, came out into the street to meet him as he drove up. Soon after that his car was damaged with the baseball bat.
“It was quite a disturbing incident and Ryan drove away as soon as he could. They’ve not spoken since and Ryan is furious.”
Tina and Ryan first got together in 2003 and had a daughter together, Scarlett Jacqueline Thomas, but sadly split in 2009.
