Alan Halsall has seemingly lashed out at his ex Lucy-Jo Hudson’s boyfriend Lewis Devine after he called his daughter his own.
The Coronation Street actor, 37, appeared to make a remark in response to Lewis’ gushing post following the birth of his and Lucy’s son last week.
Amid his excitement at becoming a new dad, Lewis heaped praise Lucy and Alan’s on six-year-old girl Sienna, with part of his statement reading: ‘Our Sienna is delighted and is already making the best big sister, just like I knew she would!’

In a now deleted Instagram post viewed by The Sun, Alan didn’t appear to take too kindly to Lewis’ use of the word ‘our’ and seemed to hit back at his ex’s new beau.
He wrote: ‘You’re welcome to keep the lying cheating one & call her your own! But not my daughter.’
It’s not known who the Tyrone Dobbs actor was referring to in the first part of his message, but the second part clearly implies he is unhappy about anyone making claims on his daughter.
MailOnline have contacted representatives of Alan and Lucy for comment.

Ahead of giving birth, Lucy-Jo spoke candidly to MailOnline about her ‘difficult’ pregnancy, after being diagnosed with SPD, which typically occurs ahead of giving birth and leaves your pelvic joints soft and stretchy, causing pain in some women.
The star said: ‘It’s been a lot different, I mean people do say that you carry differently with boys and girls and you really do. It’s been a little bit more, it’s been more difficult this pregnancy.’
Lucy-Jo explained: ‘Just with the sickness at the beginning, which was like 24/7, that was quite hard while working, but obviously, I know at the end of the day I am having a little miracle so your body has to do some amazing things.’

She added: ‘I think as well because I’ve already got one, you’re running around aren’t you, so you don’t really stop.
‘I am kind of walking around like a little old woman at the moment, I can’t get out of bed and it takes me a while to sit down then get up, so I am kind of glad I finished [Hollyoaks] just before I started with all this.
‘I am so ready for him to be here now, it’s just getting a little bit more challenging now. I’m not the kind of person who can just lay in bed, I want to be up and doing things.

Lucy and Alan married in 2009 after meeting on the set of Corrie, before splitting in 2018.
