Despite their romantic history, the exes agreed it wouldn&#8217;t be weird to live together as friends. <\/p>\n<p><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"nina lucas, sienna, asha alahan, coronation street\" title=\"Nina Lucas, Sienna, Asha Alahan, Coronation Street\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"4016\" height=\"2631\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/ee4f2040-20f6-4dc4-b763-f04506b7db24.jpg\" class=\"css-0 e1ddfba50\"\/><\/p>\n<p>ITV<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"18\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalspy.com\/tech\/best-tech-deals\/g35899960\/best-streaming-services\/\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.digitalspy.com\/tech\/best-tech-deals\/g35899960\/best-streaming-services\/\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"Best streaming services\" data-node-id=\"18.1\" class=\"body-link css-1gyyefe emevuu60\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Best streaming services<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"22\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Recent episodes have seen Asha dating her colleague Sienna, with their new romance seemingly going well.

But Asha was reluctant to believe Sienna was a thief. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"31\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Their conversation was interrupted by the paramedic who arrived at the flat, with Nina struggling to hide his disdain. She immediately asked Sienna if she&#8217;d seen the money, while Asha tried to play peacemaker between the pair.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"35\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">&#8220;I never misplaced them. I know exactly where I put them, and when you were gone, my tips were gone, too,&#8221; Nina stated. <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"39\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Insulted by the accusation, Sienna denied taking the money and in turn accused Nina of being a &#8220;jealous ex&#8221;.

Nina is such a unique character and I think there&#8217;s so much to do with her. That&#8217;s why I don&#8217;t think her story is over,&#8221; she explained.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"60\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">&#8220;There&#8217;s her art \u2013 when she came into the show, she was really talented. I wanted to explore more of that. Obviously there&#8217;s the brilliant relationship with Roy, too. I think that&#8217;s my favourite part of being at Corrie \u2013 Nina and Roy.
