The Daily Mail went as far as reporting that Tina has signed a new contract.
Well, here at the Coronation Street Blog we've received confrmation that Tina has not been formally approached to return to Coronation Street and that the story about her return to Corrie which first appeared in The Mirror was nothing more than a rumour.
And Tina O'Brien has now posted to twitter the following which confirms she hasn't been asked back to Coronation Street. Shame, eh? I'd love to see her return.

Peeps and lol? Sigh!
Pretty much what I figured, too. She was quoted earlier as saying she'd go back if asked and the papers made a meal out of it.
Dont care one way or t'other. Corrie should not be used as a safety net if actors want to leave and then dont do much else.
She like many others looking to go back to the soap that they felt they were too good for put out the story that they are returning in the pathetic hope that the producers will feel sorry for them and bring them back.
Why don't they give up and find other work or go on benefits like everyone else.
This makes me think they are going to kill sarah and send Bethany to live with Gail- Micky
Oh Anonymous you may be onto something - that would certainly be an explosive event for the Platt family as has been hinted.
I hope I'm wrong as I think it would be waste to have sarah die off screen just to provide Gail with a fresh teenager to cause her havoc, who will probably have an italian accent?, but I just have this feeling. The producers asked her back a while ago, maybe they decided to kill her instead- Micky
That would be an interesting twist but I bet the explosive story that will tear the Platts apart will be little more than Kylie being preggo with Nick's baby - and the two of them hooking up as a couple! Which sonny-boy will Gail stand behind now? Particularly if David tries to kill Nick?
I wish she would return. I miss the character.
I really hope she returns and she is only just saying that to keep it under wraps for the time being. I hope they don't kill her off screen it would be such a waste of good storyline. But i'd love to see her and bethany again
I'm glad she's not returning, never liked the character.
I follow Tina O'Brien on twitter and she has denied this ever happening. She said the first she knew about it was reading it herself in the papers. She is a stay at home mum and happy that way for the moment. I think when Ben Price said there was something that would change the platt family forever he just meant the pregnancy storyline with Kylie. Actors usually aren't privvy to future storylines anyway
I liked her, real glamour
