Major update in Tina O’Brien street fight case after Corrie star was filmed brawling with teen girls outside £1m home

CORRIE star Tina O’Brien has been cleared over a vicious street brawl with teenage girls.

Police are understood to have concluded that the mother of two, 40, was acting in self- defence near her family home.

Footage obtained by The Sun showed the 5ft 1in actress trading blows and putting a girl in a headlock — as well as being hit herself and having her hair pulled.

Cops have made no arrests and are winding down their investigation into last month’s scrap in Bramhall, Greater Manchester.

A source said: “Police have concluded Tina acted in self-defence and hasn’t done anything wrong. Her version has always been she was defending her home and her family, and that appears to have been accepted.

“Tina is also tiny and not an aggressive person — so is not the kind to be fighting in the street usually. These girls came to her road and to her house, and that’s the only reason she got involved. She thinks they were looking for trouble and — although it was not a good look — in a way she did the right thing.”

We revealed how the actress rushed out of her £1million home in pink jogging bottoms as violence flared outside on a Friday night.

Star seen trading blows

Footage showed Tina — in pink jogging bottoms and a stripey top — grabbing a girl and telling her: “Get away from the f*****g house.”

The star and two others were seen pushing a teen against a VW as another fight broke out yards away.

One clip showed Tina and a girl — said to be around 15 but much bigger than the TV star — trading blows before Tina’s hair was yanked back.

The actress, who joined Corrie as Sarah Platt when she was 16, lives in a cul-de-sac with husband Adam Crofts and her two children.

The fracas was said to have left her “deeply disturbed”, and Corrie bosses offered her time off work.

A source added: “The mum of one of the girls involved thanked Tina for protecting her daughter.”

Tina wed personal trainer Adam in 2018 and they have a son, Beau.

She also has a 15-year-old daughter, actress Scarlett, whose father is former Corrie star Ryan Thomas.

Tina starred on ITV’s Corrie from 1999 to 2008. She then featured on Waterloo Road and Strictly before returning to the cobbles in 2015.

A spokeswoman for Tina declined to comment. Greater Manchester Police confirmed that no arrests had been made and “inquiries were coming to a close”.
