Ellie took to social media to share a picture of them sharing a romantic kiss, captioning it: “2026 with you.”

He re-shared it on his own account as they counted down the seconds to welcome 2026 along with some close friends.

The couple started dating in December 2024, and by May of last year, friends reported that he was “smitten” with her.

A friend mentioned at the time: “Alan and Ellie are getting along incredibly well.

“Things are heating up between them, and they cherish the moments they spend together.

“They’re often spotted together in their local area, and their relationship is the talk of the town.”

Ellie, who hails from Greater Manchester, is a human resources coordinator at Delta Hotels by Marriott Worsley Park Country Club, located in Alan’s hometown of Worsley.

Golf enthusiast Alan is a member of the club, where memberships can cost up to £1,181. The club also features a four-star hotel on-site.

He ended his five-year relationship with co-star Tisha Merry at the start of 2024.

A source close to the couple revealed that Tisha moved out of Alan’s Manchester home in January of that year.

Both Alan and Tisha, who were yoga partners before they started dating, had dropped subtle hints about the end of their romance.

An insider shared with The Sun on Sunday: “Alan and Tisha had a lot of love for each other and shared many common interests, including socializing and traveling together.

“However, they began to drift apart and felt overwhelmed by the pressure to make their relationship work.

“They realized they weren’t aligned anymore, and separating felt like the best choice.”

“They’ve been focusing on their own paths and spending time with their individual friends.”

Alan, who portrays Tyrone Dobbs in Corrie, was previously married to his former co-star Lucy-Jo Hudson, 42, from 2009 to 2018.

The two met on the ITV soap, where their on-screen characters fell in love, and they began dating in real life in 2004.

They briefly separated in 2016 and then divorced in 2018, but the two have maintained an amicable relationship for the sake of their daughter, Sienna.

While appearing on a show in 2024, he stated: “Lucy left Corrie around 2005, and we got married in 2009. We then separated after Sienna was born.

“I cherish what I have, even now that I’m on my own.

“I love being a dad. I’ve never tried dating apps.”
