This Morning's Alison Hammond has hinted that things might not be going well in her love life. The popular ITV star shared a humorous meme about falling for the 'wrong person' on her Instagram stories.
Alison's last public relationship was landscape gardener Ben Hawkins, who she met when she hired him to work on her Midlands home in 2021, but they split last year.
This Morning co-host Dermot O'Leary revealed in June 2022 that the former Big Brother star was seeing someone new as he referred to her as "a taken woman" while they were presenting the ITV show together.
After Dermot spilled the beans, Alison spoke about her boyfriend that November, saying: "He loves me to bits. He absolutely worships me and massages my feet every single day."
But it seems like there could be issues in Alison's love life, reports the Mirror, after she reposted a tweet showing a racoon and dog cuddling and looking very much in love. The original tweet read: "Me in love with the wrong person again." Alison didn't add any comment when she shared the post with her 1.5 million followers.
If nation's sweetheart Alison is single, the Great British Bake Off host is more than okay with it. She once said that she's spent a lot of her life without a man and doesn't feel like she's missing anything.
"I absolutely love my own company," she told the Mirror.
