Alison Hammond has won legions of fans with her gregarious personality and hilarious celebrity interviews on This Morning.
She emerged as a quick show favourite on Big Brother in 2002, and has continued to build on that success with a TV career that has spanned two decades.
But one thing has alluded the Birmingham-born star, and that's that special someone to grow old and grey with.
