This Morning star Alison Hammond is celebrating her 50th birthday today after a bumper time of late. As well as rising through the presenting ranks to front some of the most watched TV shows in the UK, Alison has recently moved to a dream house in Berkshire, and has even been enjoying a new romance with a handsome toyboy.
Life, it seems, could not be sweeter for the woman dubbed ‘nation’s sweetheart’ by many, after decades in the spotlight following her iconic appearance on Big Brother back in 2002.
Alison has revealed she’s got no big birthday plans this year for her big day, which she shares with beloved son Aiden, 20, after a huge bash at her home for her 48th and Aiden’s 18th. The event, which Alison shared with fans on socials at the time, featured a fireworks display, live bands, two cakes and was attended by the likes of Carol Vorderman and Alison’s This Morning costars including Holly Willoughby and Dermot O’Leary.
But if Alison was planning on hosting some of her telly pals for another milestone celebration, Alison has the perfect pad these days to lay on a proper shindig.
The presenter bought a stunning new home near London last year and, though she’s remained tight-lipped about the exact location, properties in London’s commuter belt can exceed £10million.
She’s shared snippets of the property with fans previously on social media.
In an Instagram story, Alison revealed a huge, luscious and green landscaped garden and patio overlooking the English countryside.
She captioned the video: “Feeling very emotional knowing that without all your support and love I wouldn’t be looking at this view. This is my new garden I would draw as a child but never dreamed it would be a reality. Thank you.”.
Alison sold her previous Solihull home ,where she hosted her last birthday bash, for a reported £700,000, making a profit of around £117,500.
A source from Smart Homes told MailOnline: “[The house] nearly sold three times but never completed because of vendors’ chains falling through.
“It has finally completed just shy of the new asking price of £700,000 and is now off the market. The celebrity owner is delighted.”
And if fans are worried about Alison being lonely in her huge new pad when Aiden is busy with his fledging DJ career, they need not, as she’s loved up with a new boyfriend – David Pullman – who will be providing her with lots of company. Masseur Pullman, 29, has been in a relationship with the star for over a year and the pair went Instagram official last year with a sweet snap, though still tend to keep their romance updates to themselves…
