Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan has said her character Tina McIntyre is still haunted by Graeme Proctor (Craig Gazey) leaving her.
The actress said Craig's dumping her is the reason Tina is struggling to admit her feelings for Tommy Duckworth (Chris Fountain).
Keegan told Soaplife: "She's scared of getting involved with a man again.
"She's still hurt by what Graeme did to her and she's wary of it happening again."
Michelle added: "Tina doesn't trust him 100% because of his laddish ways. She hasn't forgotten how he tried to get off with any woman when he first arrived on the Street.
"She's also worried about spoiling their friendship and losing him from her life."
However, Rovers Return landlady Stella Price (Michelle Collins) persuades her to give Tommy a chance, but Tina catches him kissing another woman.
Keegan added: "For now Tommy's blown his chances. They might make a great couple and could have fun together, but Tina has to be careful she doesn't get hurt."
