Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas is devoted to daughter Scarlett and gets on well with ex Tina O’Brien.

‘We’re on good terms. We talk a lot – we have to, she’s the mother of my child,’ Ryan tells us.

‘When you become a dad, you realise there’s nothing more important in life than your children.’

The actor loves spending time with Scarlett but is also looking for love…

‘I’d like to meet a girl and I could do with some help to find someone who wants to date me,’ the 27-year-old admits, ‘but I’m 100 per cent single.’
