Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien stuns in bikini as she takes break amid on-screen affair and pregnancy fallout

Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien has left the drama of Weatherfield behind her as she was seen sipping what appeared to be a gin and tonic on a sun lounger. The actress has ditched the UK for sunnier climes, despite the recent heatwave in the UK, and looked gorgeous in a number of Instagram snaps.

Tina, who is famed for playing Sarah Barlow in the ITV soap, took to her Instagram Story with a sizzling snap of her enjoying the sunshine while sporting a classic black cross-neck two-piece that showed off her toned abs

Her blonde locks were swept off her face and she was wearing sunglasses as she gave a smouldering stare to the camera for the selfie while holding her drink in her other hand.

It came after she posted a snap of herself sporting a black and white Aztec dress and said she was giving 'holiday vibes'. But all eyes were on her accessories as she looked away from the camera and pulled black her tresses to how of her sparkling drop earrings.

Earlier this month, the soap star appeared to reveal just one of the secrets behind her youthful appearance as she was seen working up a sweat in the gym as temperatures continued to soar across the country. She was enjoying a day away from the cobbles where her character is currently facing the fallout from the reveal of her affair with Damon Hay by her young son Harry.

Tina headed to her local Champneys where she faced a tough workout in the sweltering heat. But she didn't let it stop her and the 39-year-old filmed herself doing some intense skipping after taking inspiration from elsewhere.

The 39-year-old typed alongside the video shared to her Instagram Story with her 510K followers: "Not quite up to @lauren.jumps [crying laughing emoji and love heart eyes emoji] but giving it a good go."

The Rusholme-born star could be seen sporting a white workout bra, which showed off her impressively toned torso, with skintight patterned cycling shorts. She pulled her hair back out of her face so it didn't disrupt her jumping and put on her headphones to keep in focus.

And after getting sweaty in the gym, Tina then filmed herself heading to the empty indoor pool before heading home for a spot of sunbathing and reading in the garden. "Best day off ever," she simply wrote on her Instagram Story.

And while Tina takes a break from Corrie, her character is set to get in a lot more bother as she discovers she's pregnant. During Monday's trip to the cobbles, Sarah will be seen in the Rovers with Dee-Dee Bailey but as she takes a sip of her wine, she baulks and worried she might be pregnant, hurries out. Back at home, Sarah looks at her positive pregnancy test in total shock.
