Brett Oppenheim’s ex Tina Louise is unrecognisable in shocking throwback photos
>
Australian model Tina Louise came into the limelight two years ago after dating Brian Austin Green following his split from actress Megan Fox.
Though the relationship didn’t last, the 41-year-old has become a notable Australian name in Los Angeles, with millions of followers on Instagram, launching several successful businesses and dating a string of famous men.
But despite her newly minted stardom, most fans wouldn’t recognize Tina — who announced her pregnancy with a South Korean millionaire this week — ahead of her Hollywood makeover.

In her mid-2000s, when she was in her twenties, the blonde bombshell was a brunette bikini model on the Gold Coast.
Then known by her real name Tina Wallman, she was a big name on the Australian glamor modeling scene and a favorite of men’s magazines like Zoo, FHM and Ralph.
According to a former friend, Tina was known throughout Brisbane and the Gold Coast and was considered one of the industry’s queen bees at the time.
At the time, she looked very different from her current style of short blonde hair and tattoos, instead sporting long glossy black locks and an unblemished physique.

Tina started her modeling career by appearing in car shows and bikini competitions, including Miss Indy in 2006.
The following year, she competed to win $1 million in Savvy.com’s Search for the Million Dollar Woman composition.
She even pushed the boundaries by sometimes modeling topless, including during a live competition.
Her career continued to climb after that, leading to covers for Zoo magazine and the Czech version of Maxim.
The 41-year-old has become a well-known Australian name in Los Angeles, has millions of followers on Instagram, launches several successful businesses and dates a string of famous men.
At the time, she also had a sizable following on the now-defunct social media site MySpace, and was interviewed by Channel Seven’s Today Tonight about her popularity online.
Tina even broke through as a big name on the poker circuit, appearing all over poker websites and blogs.
When she moved to Los Angeles in the early 30s, the beauty decided to completely overhaul her image.

She cut her hair short and dyed it blonde, lost weight after going vegan and covered her body with tattoos.
In addition to building a significant following on Instagram, OnlyFans, and Patreon, Tina has also used her modeling success to launch several businesses.
She teamed up with former Playboy model Jade Nicole to open vegan Mexican restaurants Sugar Taco in Los Angeles, followed by vegan butcher The Plant Butchers in Long Beach.
Her latest venture is a vegan canned tequila brand called Azucar Tequila.

In recent years, Tina has been associated with a string of Hollywood celebrities, starting with 90210 star Brian Austin Green.
She was then spotted on a beach date with music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, then began dating Selling Sunset star and real estate agent Brett Oppenheim.
Her romance with Brett led to a few minor appearances on the final season of Selling Sunset before breaking up for good.

Tina is now pregnant after enjoying a whirlwind romance with new boyfriend, Sei Moon.
Little is known about Moon, a Korean-born, London-based businessman who runs the luxury hospitality and concierge service Wiser Hospitality Group.
The company is described as “a membership-based consulting and booking platform for luxury hospitality.”
Before opening Wiser Hospitality Group, Moon had a number of award-winning nightclubs in London.

The hotshot Korean earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Imperial College London, before working in finance and fashion before finally settling on hospitality.
Moon describes himself on Linkedin as ‘a creative hospitality visionary with an excellent academic background and a financial foundation’.
A friend of Moon’s from the London social scene described him as ‘a nice guy’.
“He took care of the VIP guest list at popular, high-end nightclubs in London,” the source told the Daily Mail Australia.
“He was a very helpful and nice man and he was very present.”
The former couple had been in a relationship for eight months, but broke up when Brett refused to settle down

Meanwhile, a former friend of Tina told Daily Mail Australia that the OnlyFans model “always had a thing for very rich Korean men.”
“She was dating a few different Korean guys when I knew her,” the friend said.
“She always wanted to have a great lifestyle and find a successful man. She’s also a really great girl and she’s come a long way since modeling in Brisbane!’
Tina and her new beau debuted their romance — and their pregnancy — earlier this week during a beach trip in Los Angeles.
