This Morning star Alison Hammond is over the moon after losing an impressive five stone.

The 49-year-old celebrity began seeing 26-year-old Russian masseur David Putman earlier this year, around the time she embarked on her weight loss journey. According to a source speaking with Closer magazine, while not yet engaged, Alison has been shedding pounds in order to fit into her dream wedding dress.

They said: "Alison doesn't recognise her reflection – she thinks it's insane. She's lost almost 5st and is still going strong. She wants to be a sexy bride for her new man."

The insider also shared that Alison aims to shed an additional three stone, as part of an overall goal to be a "healthy version of herself", reports the Express.

On top of slimming down, friends claim that Alison is even undergoing a style makeover by selling her previous size 26 outfits and closely collaborating with fashion stylists. Close sources described her as happier and healthier than ever, saying that "every part of her life" has been positively influenced by her recent weight loss.

It is believed that Alison first encountered David when she employed him for his massage therapy services. The professional connection quickly transitioned into a heartfelt friendship before turning into a romantic relationship.

From 2021 until February 2023, Alison Hammond was reportedly romantically involved with landscape gardener Ben Hawkins. Before Ben, the television personality had been in a relationship with taxi driver Noureddine Boufaied, the father of her 19-year-old son Aiden, and then she experienced a subsequent romance with security guard Jamie Savage.

Following years filled with ups and downs on the dating scene, fans will likely be thrilled that Alison's most recent romantic endeavour seems to be positively influencing the star. A source speaking to Closer confirmed Alison was "blown away" by her fanbase's response to her recent transformation.
