Alan's reps have since shut down any speculation surrounding his relationship with Tisha, they told Closer Online: "They are 100% not dating!!! They are mates and have been ever since she was on the show."

Following their split, Alan showed off his incredible weight loss transformation and a few months later Lucy-Jo confirmed she had moved on with her new boyfriend on Instagram.

Coronation Street fans will remember Tisha as Steph Britton; during her time on the Cobbles she had a turbulent relationship with Andy Carver, she left for Portugal after she believed her boyfriend broke up with her and her brother Luke was murdered by Pat Phelan.
