This moment of joy came after Tina was cleared of all blame as police concluded that the actress was "acting in self-defence" when teen girls brutally fought outside of her Stockport, Greater Manchester, home. A source said: "Police have concluded Tina acted in self-defence and hasn’t done anything wrong. Her version has always been she was defending her home and her family, and that appears to have been accepted."
"Tina is also tiny and not an aggressive person so is not the kind to be fighting in the street usually. These girls came to her road and to her house, and that’s the only reason she got involved. She thinks they were looking for trouble and — although it was not a good look — in a way she did the right thing," they added to The Sun.
