Shower pinching pressure from boiler?

Could my shower be pinching pressure from my heating system?

We inherited what I think is an odd set up when we bought the house over two years ago. We have a pump in the hot press which “drives” water to the en suite shower. The pump I believe was installed separately to increase flow through this paricular shower. All other showers in the house (2) are tritons.

I’ve been wondering about boiler pressure dropping recently (boiler is 5 months old). I restored it to 1.5 bar yesterday evening, this morning it was 1.5bar still before the shower but dropped to 1 bar after. I recon this is the reason one of our rads doesn’t heat unless all others are shut off - lack of system pressure.

I thought there was no relationship between heating and showers? Am I wrong?
