Tina O’Brien, 41, SPLITS from husband after seven years of marriage as ITV Coronation Street star ditches wedding ring
Coronation Street actress Tina O’Brien has reportedly split from her husband Adam Crofts after seven years of marriage.
The soap star, 41, and personal trainer Crofts, 39, called time on their romance three months ago after growing apart.
A source close to the couple said: “Tina and Adam have ended their relationship and are spending some time apart.”
The pair, who began dating in 2011 before tying the knot on New Year’s Eve in 2018, are said to be “on good terms” despite the separation.

Friends of the couple revealed they remain committed to their family even though their relationship has ended.
The couple moved house at Christmas and have decided to live separately for the time being, according to sources.
Both O’Brien and Crofts have now ditched their wedding rings and unfollowed each other on social media platforms.
The Coronation Street star was photographed yesterday looking downcast as she had a coffee during a break from filming.

She was spotted in Cheshire on Monday afternoon, wearing Adidas trainers, jeans and dark sunglasses while out with her dog – with her wedding band noticeably absent.
Last month, O’Brien flew to Barbados with her daughter Scarlett, while Crofts took their son Beau skiing.
Those close to the couple said their differing lifestyles was a significant factor in their split.
“Adam and Tina lead very different lives – he is really into his fitness, while she really enjoys going out with her mates and having a dance, which just isn’t for him,” a source told The Sun.
The insider added: “It wasn’t an issue at first because they were head over heels, but as the kids have started to grow up it’s become more noticeable.”
Friends explained that Crofts prefers a quiet life, which ultimately clashed with O’Brien’s more sociable nature.
The couple had hoped recent separate holidays might give them time to reconsider, but ultimately agreed splitting was for the best.
Despite the split, the couple remain committed to co-parenting their 10-year-old son Beau.
