Just read that Tina O' Brien (Sarah on corrie) has turned 40 today.
I swear she looks about 23 if that. I am in shock !

Botox!!!

Is there a recent photo of her? Not watched Corrie for years but she did always look younger than her years!

Botox!!!

Oh, really?

I just thought she had a very young looking face. Did she start botox lately or has she been doing it long term and that's why she's always looked so young?

I know nothing about how botox works, obviously!

She doesn’t look 23. She looks like a beautiful young woman because she is, but she doesn’t look nearly twenty years younger than she actually is.

Botox!!!

Botox can only do so much you know.

Skinnermarink · 07/08/2023 21:21

I doubt it’s down to Botox, she’s always had a young face and she obviously has nice features and good genes. She doesn’t look 23, that would be silly.

cardibach · 07/08/2023 21:23

She looks late 30s/40 to me, but maybe that’s because I don’t think 40 is irredeemably ancient.

Jifmicroliquid · 07/08/2023 21:24

She’s always looked young for her age. When she was in her late twenties she played a teenager in Waterloo road.

ToTheMax0 · 07/08/2023 21:25

I would have said 23 or 24 if I didn't know. She's tiny as well which adds to the looking young thing I guess.
I don't think she has had botox at all. She just hasn't aged over the years at all.

Botox doesn't really make people look younger.

She has a very girlish face that hasn't changed that much over the years. If I passed her in the street I'd probably guess she was 28-30. Isla Fisher has a similar kind of face and she also looks a good bit younger than her age (47).

CherryMaDeara · 07/08/2023 21:27

She’s a beautiful women but she doesn’t look 33, she looks late 30s.

*23

ActDottie · 07/08/2023 21:28

Just googled her she looks late 30s.

Hivaluegirl · 07/08/2023 21:29

Nah she doesn't look 23. She looks 35ish and clearly just looks after herself, doesn't let men stress her which is the secret to youth

NancyJoan · 07/08/2023 21:30

Botox and fillers. She looks great, but she looks late 30s, which is about right.

JodyMitchell · 07/08/2023 21:30

From that photo It’s really obvious she has had Botox! She looks her age though, because that’s what 40 looks like.

Toomuchleopard · 07/08/2023 21:33

I saw her in Lyon airport in February this year and she really stood out and was very striking looking.

Pinkitydrinkity · 07/08/2023 21:34

She is very pretty and does have a young face, but from these pics I would put her in mid-late 30s. The eyes are always the give away!

I think sometimes too people can look much younger from certain camera angles and in certain clothes.

There is an actress called Pia Miranda - I've just googled her - who was in the remake of Wentworth Prison playing a character called Jodie.

In the show, I thought she looked much younger than her actual age, I think the crappy prison clothes were actually part of that lol.

Now googling her she doesn't actually look that much younger, she's glammed up for awards dos and suchlike. Don't get me wrong she still looks great!

GrandTheftWalrus · 07/08/2023 21:35

I'm 40 next year and thought she was younger than me.

wineschmine · 07/08/2023 21:35

That's a very unflattering picture of her.

She is pretty and has always looked younger than she is.

Tahitiansummer · 07/08/2023 21:38

In real life, it's very believable that she's almost 40.

Oatycookies · 07/08/2023 21:39

She looks great and lovely figure, but she very much looks 40-ish give or take a few years. I’ve just checked her instagram for recent pics.I think the issue is 23 year olds are looking incredibly old now with Botox and heavy makeup etc so it kind of distorts things.
