Tina Stewart is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Charlotte Avery.
Tina was Johnny Allen's mistress for 10 years and supported him when his wife and older daughter were killed in a house fire. After making peace with Johnny's daughter Ruby Allen, Tina finally moved in with Johnny, where they seem to have enjoyed some measure of domestic tranquility between crises. She was made uncomfortable by Johnny's having hired an attractive barmaid, Amy, for his nightclub Scarlet, who Ruby later found him kissing, leading to her telling Tina about the whole incident. Johnny openly admitted to having a fling and shocked Tina with his attitude by trying to brush it off as though it was nothing, telling Tina to forget it, and she realised exactly what he was really like, and fled Albert Square for good.

Famous quotes containing the word stewart:
“Anthropologists have found that around the world whatever is considered “men’s work” is almost universally given higher status than “women’s work.” If in one culture it is men who build houses and women who make baskets, then that culture will see house-building as more important. In another culture, perhaps right next door, the reverse may be true, and basket- weaving will have higher social status than house-building.”
—Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen. Excerpted from, Gender Grace: Love, Work, and Parenting in a Changing World (1990)
