Rory looked handsome in a white tee and jeans, perfectly complementing Tina's lacy white top with stone wash blue jeans. 

They made no secret of their union as they stood in the middle of the street in the clinch before joyfully walking away arm in arm.

The burgeoning romance comes after Tina who is known for playing Sarah Platt, split from her millionaire interior designer ex, Adam Fadlé, 38, in November 2025 

Tina and Adam went public with their romance over the summer when they attended her Corrie co-star Jack P Shepherd's wedding in July.

However, insiders told Daily Mail that she ended the romance after admitting it 'wasn't going anywhere' and that she didn't want to invest energy in something 'that was never going to last'.

Friends claimed her blunt assessment left Adam 'stunned', as he believed the relationship had real potential and relished the time they spent together.

Tina was firm about the split, removing all photos of the couple from her Instagram, including snaps from a romantic September holiday to Greece, making it clear the whirlwind fling had ended.

The relationship came just months after the collapse of her seven-year marriage to ex-husband Adam Crofts, with the pair reportedly parting ways over Christmas 2024.

Tina has been through a tough time in recent months, following the heartbreaking death of her father and her breakup. 

The soap actress shared a post on Instagram late last year, explaining why she had been absent from social media for a while.

The duo went for complementary off-duty looks

'I've been a little quiet on here. My dad recently died. I haven't quite known how to put it into words,' she told fans in the post, which was accompanied by the poignant Cat Stevens song Father And Son.

'My heart is very heavy, but I'm grateful he is no longer suffering. Thank you to everyone who's held me steady through this difficult time.

'I love you. You mean the world to me. xx'

They could not keep their hands off each other
