Tina Reilly

Tina Reilly (also McQueen) is a fictional character from the British Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks, played by Leah Hackett.

Since making her first appearance in August 2006 as part of the McQueen family, Tina has been involved in storylines including sexual harassment and surrogacy.

Tina was killed off in a church explosion on 17 October 2008, shortly after Hackett decided to leave the serial.

Tina briefly appeared in a flashback on 20 November 2014 when the McQueen family remember her half-sister Carmel Valentine (Gemma Merna) at her funeral.

A spokesperson for Hollyoaks commented on the storyline, "Sadly, one of the girls decided they had had enough and told producers that they wanted out.

"[1] Tina was born to Myra McQueen (Nicole Barber-Lane) following a one-night stand with a bingo caller called Marvin.

Myra fell in love with Marvin, but after telling him she was pregnant with Tina, he gave her money to abort the child.

Tina's sisters Carmel (Gemma Merna) and Michaela (Hollie-Jay Bowes) overhear Dom calling Tina "Cathy", a character from her favourite play Wuthering Heights, and assume he is having an affair with Kathy Barnes (Sarah Jane Buckley).

During their joint hen night, Tina and Mercedes, along with Carmel and Jacqui McQueen (Claire Cooper), find an unconscious Clare Cunningham (Gemma Bissix), after she is pushed from a balcony.

Due to injuries sustained in her fall, Tina has an emergency hysterectomy, rendering her unable to have any more children.

When she arrives at the church, Niall makes Myra choose which two children will live, telling her that he will kill the rest.
