Alan Halsall and his girlfriend Tisha Merry have set tongues wagging after she was spotted promoting an electronic fertility bracelet on Instagram.
The couple have been dating since the start of the year after first meeting on the set of Coronation Street in 2013.
And since going public at Chesney Brown actor Sam Aston’s wedding back in May, it looks like they’ve gone from strength to strength and some are now speculating that they’re thinking about starting a family as Tisha posed wearing the fertility tracking tech.
“For the last 12 years I’ve struggled to find a natural way to monitor my cycle,” she wrote next to the picture.
“Thanks to @avawomen , their highly advanced sensor bracelet can track your cycle and fertility whilst giving accurate insights into your sleep quality, physiological stress, pulse rate and more.”
According to The Sun, the next step in their relationship may not be so far in the future.
“It’s not gone unnoticed that Tisha has been wearing the electronic band so perhaps they are looking to take their relationship to the next level,” a source said.
