CORONATION Street star Arianna Ajtar has gone Instagram official with her boyfriend after teasing her relationship on social media.
The actress, 28, revealed her mystery man for the first time last year while promoting her hugely successful fashion business.
He modelled some of the items from her range but she kept his identity a secret by cropping out his face.
She’s now posted a cosy photo with her other half on her Instagram story.
The snap shows him with one arm around her as she snaps a selfie.
Arianna runs her own successful female clothing brand.
The actress is best known for playing model Olivia in ITV’s Corrie from 2018 to 2019.
She runs the successful clothing brand Mars The Label, which had an eight figure turn over in 2022.
She launched the multi-million pound brand from her dad’s living room in 2015 with just £3,000, money her late mum had left her.
She created the designs herself and now has a huge team working alongside her from her headquarters in Bolton.
She said: “We are now an eight figure annual turnover brand, which is honestly wild when you bring it all the way back to starting with less than £3,000 in my dad’s living room.
“We’ve come such a long way, and I’ve learnt so many lessons.
“I can’t even believe it myself to be honest. Sometimes I sit there and look at the sales on the website and can’t believe that genuinely it’s mine.”;;
Arianna worked two jobs at The Trafford Centre while setting up the business.
Lockdown encouraged her to focus solely on the company.
She told theManchester Evening News: “I was 19 when I first founded Mars, I just thought I’m going to design some pieces on a kids doodle app, which I still use.
“I’m not a trained designer, with no background in business. I was the seller as well as the consumer at that stage.”;;
However, she insisted she hadn’t turned her back on acting.
She said: “Acting was my passion since I was three. I would love nothing more than to do that again infuture ...
“The initial audition was for a bigger role, but I didn’t get the part, usually I’d be gutted but I just knew that something else would come along.
“Six weeks later, they came back to say there’s this other role. It was a small part, in the grand scheme of things it was blink and you’ll miss it.
“But I’m still friends with the Corrie cast and they take the mickey out of me when they see me still called a Corrie star because I know it was a small role, but I guess it was a big storyline.
“I was only in for a few episodes, but it was honestly one of the highlights of my career, I was so so proud of that, because it was my mum’s favourite programme. My whole life was Corrie so I felt like she sent me that role in a weird way.”;;
