“What you’d like in terms of family, etc. We’ve never had a proper serious sit down but we’ve discussed the future together.”
Praising her boyfriend’s parenting skills, Tisha added: “He’ll be so amazing. When we were still friends, I got asked to babysit and asked Alan to come along.
“We got there and it was just Alan babysitting. He’s such a good dad; he’s so caring and loving.
“He notices everything and his communication with Sienna is so strong. I would love that for our child if we have one.”
