Alison Hammond ‘refuses to be put off by anyone’ amid backlash over relationship

This Morning’s Alison Hammond, 49, is totally smitten with her toyboy lover David Putman.

Despite their whopping 23-year age difference, Alison thinks they’re the perfect match. In a fierce clapback to the naysayers, Alison has reportedly told her mates she won’t let anyone, including David’s mum who’s reportedly not too chuffed about the age gap and Alison’s celeb life, rain on her love parade.

The telly fave and the hunky model have been an item since late last year, but they’ve kept it hush-hush knowing tongues would wag. Despite the gossip and family fretting, sources spill that Alison’s all in for a good time with her man.

One source told Closer: “Alison is not going to be put off her new man by anyone, including friends and especially his mother. Alison argues that David is 26 going on 45, he’s not a teenager, he’s actually mentally more mature than she is.”

They dished further: “Alison knew there would be resistance, and this is one of the reasons why they kept things under wraps in the beginning.” The TV star reportedly first crossed paths with David during a massage appointment. It wasn’t long before sparks flew and by April, they decided to make their relationship public, reports the Mirror.

However, this move invited criticism, particularly from David’s mum Olga who allegedly urged her son to call it quits. Olga is reportedly “uncomfortable” with the fact that her son is dating someone financially stronger than him, which she believes contradicts her “traditional values.”

A source told Closer: “Olga hasn’t said anything that Alison knew wouldn’t come. Alison confided to friends that all they ask is for a blessing. She thinks she should be happy for them and for her son after all, Alison would be if the role was reversed and it was Aiden.”

The insider added: “Alison sees David’s mother’s point of view, but she wants her to know that she doesn’t need to worry they love each other. She thinks it’s sad, but thankfully, David despite loving his mum really loves Alison. She isn’t looking for approval, she would just like the key people in their lives to be happy for them.”

Alison’s lad Aiden has given her new beau the thumbs up, which is a relief for the telly star. She shared: “When they actually met, he really liked him, he really thought he was lovely, so that’s nice. Thank goodness for that! Because normally Aiden hates anybody I date, literally just not interested. And you just know at that point, if Aiden doesn’t like them, this isn’t gonna work.”

Chatter has it that Alison’s smashing weight loss might be because she’s got her eye on slipping into her dream wedding gown. An insider told the mag: “Although she’s not yet engaged, she sees David as The One. It likely won’t be long before they take the next step, so she has her sights set on losing a further 3st and wearing the dress of her dreams.”

Daily Star has reached out to Alison’s reps.
