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 !

She looks 40 to me. But i’m from southeast asi and i get ID’d a lot even though i’m 35.

Johnisafckface · 08/08/2023 01:21

She looks around 40 to me.

Unicorn2022 · 08/08/2023 02:13

She's lovely looking, always looked great for her age. Can't believe she is 40 - wonder if she paid for her own cake?!

YABU for not including a photo 😝 I haven’t watched Corrie since she WAS about 23 and now I have to Google

The photo of her on set is too large to upload I’m afraid.
I did try

She’s looks great but no way does she look 23! I’d have thought mid to late thirties.

I’m sure she’s been posted about before on here by a poster insisting she looked like a teenager. Was that you? 😂

Perhaps it is Tina herself.

Disagree OP. She's lovely but she looks 40

ToTheMax0 · 08/08/2023 08:24

No I am not Tina O'brien!!!!!

Agree with the other Tina in S club 7 also. Without doubt she could pass for late twenties, unbelievable that she is almost 50!

Well she's not a young woman. That's the point.

No, she is a young woman. That is my point.

I saw that I mean what the actual 😳😄

Im a good bit older than my Sister she was 40 this year and to me looks really young 40 is clearly the new 25!

40 isn't young.

I mean you might be 80 and consider it comparatively young, bit it isn't objectively young. It's practically middle aged.

aceofbasefan20 · 08/08/2023 12:38

Theres a lot of ageism in this thread. 40 is hardly decrepit, today is the anniversary of one of my dear friends who died at 33 and I know she would have considered 40 young and would love to still be here.

I think Tina O'Brien does look very young. She has a very pretty face and lovely smile

Murdoch1949 · 09/08/2023 04:45

Actually I saw a photo of her recently and thought that she had aged. She looks good, and looking 40 is not a bad thing.

NancyJoan · 09/08/2023 09:44

I do think that women in Manchester do really take care of themselves in terms of hair, make-up, fitness etc, even when they are not on the telly, so stands to reason that she's been Botoxed/filled/tanned etc. Possibly hair extensions for volume too.

Mumbuns · 01/11/2023 19:37

She looks lovely but yes I would have said late thirties-I’m 38 and look younger than that but I hear it declines rapidly from 42 which I’m dreading 😬

Donkeyseason · 01/11/2023 19:55

I have no idea who she is but from that photo I was not remotely surprised she is 40. She looks late 30s to 40 in it.

40 really isn’t old. Most people have not really started aging much at 40. It’s about 45 onwards that women start ageing really, ime.
