D.O.B: Unknown

Occupation: Footballer's wife (its a full time job)

Status: Widowed twice - married to Captain Jason Turner and then Manager Frank Laslett

Lives: In a very big house, in Earls Park

Current man: Tanya is currently falling for new captain Conrad Gates, but theres one problem, he is already married.

Criminal record: Tanya served time in Larkhall Prison for posession of drugs but was later found to have been set up.

Tanya is also pregnant, as she found out at the end of the last series

---------------------------------------------------------------

Was married to Earls Park captain and complete bastard, Jason Turner, until fellow footballers’ wife, Chardonnay Lane-Pascoe, pushed him off a hotel roof. Then married to Earls Park chairman, Frank Laslett, who died of a viagra induced heart-attack. Currently pregnant although the baby’s fatherhood is in question – it could have been fathered by Frank or by current Earls Park captain, Conrad Gates.

More than anything else, Tanya is a survivor; a strong woman who knows what she wants and will do anything to get it. Although she’s fiercely loyal to the few people who have managed to win her friendship, cross her and she becomes the sort of enemy that nightmares are made of – a predator who can pick out someone’s weakness at 100 yards and who is cold, calculating and remorseless in her revenge. She’s also intelligent and resourceful enough to manipulate a harmful situation to her advantage, but this strength is flawed by her belief that without a man and her glamorous lifestyle, she’s nothing. Inside Larkhall, she really will have nothing – no friends, no allies, just plenty of people lining up to knock the darling of the tabloids off her luxury, designer pedestal.
