Tina O’Brien ‘Splits From TikTok Star Rory Martin’ Just Weeks After Their Steamy Street Kiss — As She Reconnects With Millionaire Ex
Tina O’Brien has reportedly ended her short-lived romance with TikTok star Rory Martin, just weeks after the pair were pictured sharing a passionate kiss in the street.
The Coronation Street actress, 42, appeared to confirm her new relationship last month when she was seen locking lips with the Northern Irish social media personality before the pair walked away hand in hand.
Rory, who has around 450,000 followers on TikTok, was said to have enjoyed a fun and flirtatious connection with Tina. However, insiders now claim the romance has already fizzled out.
According to reports, the distance between them made it difficult for the relationship to develop into anything serious.
“They live nowhere near each other — he is in Ireland while she is in Cheshire, so it was just too hard to get anything off the ground really,” a source said.
The insider claimed the pair had “lots of fun” together and naturally bounced off one another, but their separate lives ultimately proved too difficult to manage.
As news of the split emerged, fresh speculation suggested Tina had been back in contact with her millionaire businessman ex-boyfriend Adam Fadle.
A source said the actress has been embracing a very different chapter of her life since turning 40.
“Since turning 40, Tina really has been living her life to the fullest and having lots of fun,” the insider said.
“She still looks 20 and has no shortage of men chasing her, but her friends are worried she’s been picking the wrong ones.”
The source added that Tina’s life now looked very different from the years she spent with her former husband Adam Crofts.
“This is a new Tina now,” they claimed.
Tina’s representatives have reportedly been approached for comment.
The actress previously went public with businessman Adam Fadle when they attended the wedding of her Coronation Street co-star Jack P Shepherd.
Their romance appeared promising at first, but Tina later brought it to an abrupt end after reportedly deciding it “wasn’t going anywhere”.
Sources claimed she did not want to continue investing time and energy in a relationship she believed “was never going to last”.
Her direct assessment reportedly left Adam stunned, as he believed the pair had genuine potential and had enjoyed the time they spent together.
Tina made the split clear by deleting all photographs of them from her Instagram account, including images from a romantic holiday in Greece.
Her relationship with Adam came shortly after the end of her seven-year marriage to Adam Crofts.
Tina and Crofts reportedly separated around Christmas 2024 and share a son, Beau.
She is also a mother to daughter Scarlett, 17, from her previous relationship with former Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas. Tina and Ryan dated between 2003 and 2009.
The actress has since appeared determined to enjoy her independence, although friends are reportedly concerned that her recent romances have not offered the stability she may ultimately want.
Her apparent reconnection with millionaire businessman Adam Fadle has now prompted speculation that the pair could be preparing to give their relationship another chance.
