Coronation Street's Tina O'Brien has hit back at body-shaming trolls on Instagram.

The Sarah Platt actress was recently photographed enjoying the sun in a black vest top and short denim shorts, which attracted some negative comments from people online.

Tina soon hit back at the remarks, sharing a number of them on Instagram and pointing out that she has a perfectly healthy body.

"Should feel ashamed? And we wonder why people, especially women struggle with self esteem," she wrote.
