As she enters the famous baking tent, ITV's This Morning's presenter Alison Hammond talks sweet treats, single life and how it all began in the Big Brother house
From Big Brother wannabe to TV royalty, Alison Hammond’s meteoric rise has been spectacular. Over the last two decades, the bubbly Brummie has won the hearts of fans across the country, thanks to her humour, warmth and talent.
But with filming now in the bag, Alison admits she fell foul of the free cakes on offer in the famous tent.Since she burst onto our screens on Big Brother in 2002, Alison’s star has well and truly been on the rise. This year, the 48-year-old hosted the BAFTAs with Richard E Grant, cementing her position as one of the UK’s most in demand TV personalities.
Working as a holiday rep in Tunisia at the time, she left her job to appear on the show – but ended up losing to pal Kate Lawler. Over the next few years, Alison charmed A-listers such as The Rock, Mariah Carey and Harrison Ford, who she managed to make laugh, despite his reputation as a hard-to-please interviewee. It’s no wonder Alison, alongside Dermot O’Leary, was chosen to replace Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes to front the Friday edition of the programme.
However, she seems happy being single, adding, “I absolutely love my own company. I have no problem with being on my own. In fact, I really quite like it. I think that’s why I struggle in relationships, because I don’t want somebody around me all the time. I absolutely love being on my own. I’ve never felt lonely.”
