Coronation Street’s Asha Alahan grows closer to Isla after bombshell admission

Coronation Street: Asha tells Dev that she is dating a girl

Coronation Street’s Asha Alahan (played by Tanisha Gorey) is set for a big shock next week. Although they’ve been a strong couple on the cobbles, fans of the ITV soap have recently seen her relationship with Nina Lucas (Mollie Gallagher) on the rocks.

Tensions first started to occur when Asha was paired with Isla (Emily Dowson) when she started her paramedic training a few months ago. However, Nina was been left feeling put out as the pair grew closer.

As Nina decided to air her frustrations to Asha, her partner reassured her there was nothing to worry about as they were just friends. Although Asha continues to spend more time with Isla, Nina isn’t convinced.

It looks like there’s going to be more drama ahead for their relationship as Isla makes a shocking revelation. Official spoilers for the soap reveal next week the pair decide to meet up and study.

However, Isla reveals she’d rather spend the day with Asha in the Bistro getting drunk. Despite her confusion, Asha agrees and the pair head off to enjoy their day.

After having a few drinks, it seems as though Isla divulges some personal information to Asha. With the alcohol going to her head, she decides to come clean.

Sharing that her ex-boyfriend is pestering her, Isla tells Asha that she’s gone off men and is contemplating going for women instead. At the same time, Nina walks into the Bistro and sees the pair together.

Watching Asha and Isla giggling together, Nina is hurt when she spots them gripping each other’s hands across the table. Knowing their relationship could be in danger, she confides in Shona Platt (Julia Goulding) the next day.

Nina decides it’s time to sit down with Asha properly and explain how hurt she’s making her feel by growing close to Isla. However, she’s unaware Isla has decided to pay Asha a visit.

Finally admitting she has feelings for her which are more than a friend, Isla states she respects her relationship with Nina and suggests Asha swaps mentors. Stunned by the revelation she agrees and swaps partners.

Later on, she tells Nina that she made the decision to switch as Isla has a crush on her. Already unhappy with how close they were growing, Nina’s fears are confirmed.

However, as Asha now knows how Isla really feels about her, could this be the start of an affair? Touching on the storyline earlier this year, actress Tanisha Gorey shared her thoughts.

Speaking to What To Watch, the soap star said: “We don’t need a cheating story. Not everyone needs to cheat in a relationship. But it’s a soap, we need the drama!

“We need something. But cheating should not be on the cards. Let’s hope that’s not the case.”

Asha isn’t the only person in her family with a turbulent love life at the moment either. Her brother Aadi (Adam Hussain) recently split from his girlfriend Courtney Vance (Stephanie Davis) after the pair had an affair behind her husband’s back.

After giving their relationship a go, Courtney quickly learned she enjoyed the life of luxury her husband offered her and left Aadi heartbroken. However, in recent scenes, fans saw him and his friend Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvany) share a steamy kiss.

Is this the start of a new relationship or is Aadi looking for a rebound to mend his broken heart? Viewers will have to wait and see how their new romance develops.
