After news of their split broke, a source told The Sun at the time: "Alan and Tisha had a lot of love for each other and had really similar interests, enjoying socialising and going on holiday together.
"But they started to drift apart and feel the pressure of making their relationship work get on top of them. They realised they weren't on the same page and splitting up felt like the best option.
"Tisha moved out of Alan's home around a month ago and is throwing herself into work."

"So long as Sienna comes first in all of it, that's all that matters. Sienna's got her mum and dad, and she's also got Lewis [Lucy-Jo's partner] and Tisha. It's just a case that everybody loves her."
He continued: "Of course there will be differences of opinion; so long as we're in that loving way when Sienna is around.
"We don't have a great deal of communication, it's only ever about Sienna and that's all it ever needs to be."
