'Coronation Street' Alan Halsall: 'Tyrone rushes with Kirsty proposal'

Coronation Street star Alan Halsall has admitted that his character Tyrone Dobbs may not be thinking straight when he proposes to pregnant girlfriend Kirsty Soames.

As first reported last month, Tyrone pops the question to Kirsty in an upcoming storyline as he feels guilty after wrongly accusing her of an affair.

Tyrone makes his mistake after his friends Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan) and Tommy Duckworth (Chris Fountain) become convinced that Kirsty is cheating and tell him about their suspicions.



Halsall, revealing what happens when Tyrone confronts Kirsty, told All About Soap: "Kirsty's seething - mainly because she's always stressed she would never cheat on him like his wife Molly did before she died. Kirsty tells Tyrone that they can't carry on seeing each other if there's no truth in their relationship, and she leaves him. He's absolutely heartbroken when she does it.

"He blames himself for ever listening to Tommy and Tina, and is convinced that he's blown his chances with Kirsty for good. Sally urges him to keep fighting for her, so he goes to the police station. Tyrone ends up proposing to Kirsty because he can't think of any better way to cement their relationship. It's all a bit of a rush, but he genuinely does love her."

While Kirsty accepts Tyrone's proposal, Halsall predicted that the drama between them is far from over.

He explained: "There's definitely more to Kirsty than meets the eye, and at the moment we've got no idea why she behaves the way she does. Kirsty's problems could be really deep-rooted, but there's no doubt that Tyrone will get hurt again somehow by her."
