Tyrone’s newest squeeze is confusing Coronation Street fans as she appears to have undergone a “personality transplant”.
In Thursday night’s episode, viewers did not recognise Alina when she asked her new boyfriend, Tyrone, for a ride on the motorcycle she bought for him.
She even came to the garage Tyrone works at with a card to congratulate him on getting his motorcycle licence.
But Tyrone has not even passed his test yet.
Alina Pop, played by Ruxandra Porojnicu, has become known for being headstrong, independent and brave.

She was introduced to Coronation Street in a human trafficking storyline that highlighted modern slavery.
She met Seb at the nail bar, who was not aware Alina was living in squalid housing as part of the horrible human trafficking ring.
Seb hatched a plan to help Alina run away and to expose the slavery.

Since Seb, Alina has also coupled with Corrie favourite, David Platt.
Ruxandra said she could understand Alina’s position as she said: “As an immigrant, moving abroad with just £300 in my pocket, I could have been in this situation.
“It is a great responsibility to be the voice of someone who went through this experience and I truly hope this storyline will make a change and will bring awareness in our society.”
On Twitter a fan of the ITV soap said: “Alina appears to be experiencing one of those soap personality transplants”
Another asked: “It is just me or have they changed Alina’s personality?”
A third added: “Why is Alina a completely different person today?”
Viewers were heartbroken when Tyrone split from long-term partner and Cobbles favourite Fiz to become an item with Alina.

Since becoming a couple with Alina, Tyrone has changed his clothes, alarming fans to his own personality change.
Some fans have teased he is undergoing a “mid-life crisis”, despite Tyrone being 38.
Could her personality change be linked to Alina finding out she’s pregnant next week on the ITV soap, which new spoilers have confirmed?
