Line of Duty star Martin Compston's life might be a million miles away from when he lived in Scotland now that he reside in Las Vegas with wife Tianna Chanel Flynn - but he'll always have a special place in his heart for his hometown of Greenock. "I'm very lucky to have a home in Vegas where my wife is from - but I've still got my place in Greenock," the 39 year old explained to OK! when we caught up with him and best pal Phil MacHugh ahead of their new TV show on BBC, Norwegian Fling. "I actually spend most of my time here.
My last four jobs have been in Scotland." Martin - who might be better known as DS Steve Arnott in Line of Duty - tied the knot with Tianna in 2016 at St Joseph's Chapel in Greenock.
They then set sail for America around eight years ago and the couple now share a son together. "Travelling for work, especially with a show like this where we'll be on the road from five or six in the morning can be difficult," Martin said as he explained how he splits his time between Scotland and the US where his wife Tianna is from. "Especially now that we've got the wee one, it's hard on him if we travel a lot.
Even if my wife and son were to travel with me for this show, for example, I don't get to see them much anyway. It can be tough but I'm also under no illusions of how lucky I am to be in this job." Despite being nearly 5,000 miles away from his hometown, Martin appears to have well and truly adapted to Vegas living. "I'm really proud to be Scottish, it's part of my core part of my identity," he said.

Sandra maintains he fell, or jumped, and the film spends much of its runtime chewing over the truth, though never revealing it.
