A source told The Sun that the soap star is looking into ‘beefing up security at her £1million home’ which she shares with her husband Adam Crofts and her two kids.
They added: ‘Naturally, her number one priority is making sure they are safe and, crucially, that they feel safe.’
A spokesperson for Tina told the Mirror: ‘Tina was the victim of an unprovoked incident outside her home which she has reported to the police.’
Tina lives in a quiet cul-de-sac with her husband Adam Crofts, 38, daughter Scarlett, 15, – whom she welcomed with Ryan Thomas – and son Beau, eight.
