Coronation Street’s Sarah Platt, played by Tina O’Brien, has been a staple on the cobbles since her debut in 1999.
Over the years, she’s been involved in numerous dramatic storylines, including a teenage pregnancy and various feuds.
She’s also had her fair share of failed relationships, including scandalous affairs and romances with bad boys. Her most recent relationship was with Damon Hay (Ciarán Griffiths), who is currently behind bars.
Back in the early 2000s, Sarah found herself in a serious relationship with her first boyfriend, Glen Middleham, played by actor Will Haigh. However, he looks completely different now, over two decades after his stint on the soap.
During his time on the show, he famously dated Sarah following the birth of her baby Bethany in June 2000 when she was just 13.
The shocking teen pregnancy storyline was controversial at the time and rocked the nation. While dating Glen, rumours about their relationship spread around school, leading to Sarah ending things with him, reports Leicestershire Live.
He left the cobbles in 2001 and has since quit acting for a completely new career. After his time on Coronation Street, Will Mellor took on roles in popular shows like Holby City and The Peter Kay Thing.
However, at the age of 17, he decided to leave acting behind and embarked on a new career as a mine warfare specialist in the Royal Navy.
During his service, Will spent two years with the Marines, serving in locations such as Africa and Saudi Arabia.
He later transferred to the photographic branch, where he has since received numerous awards for his work.
These days, the former soap star is almost unrecognisable, sporting a sleek brunette hairstyle. Will has swapped his silver chain and jerseys for smart shirts, showcasing a more mature look.
