Alison Hammond is reportedly earning a ‘five-figure sum’ every week after becoming one of the UK’s most high-profile TV presenters.
The 49 year old has come a long way since she first burst onto our screens as a housemate on Big Brother in 2002. She landed a small presenting slot on This Morning that same year, and fast-forward 22 years, she is now one of its main presenters.
But This Morning isn’t the only big TV coup Alison has achieved, as she began her role as a co-presenter on C4’s The Great British Bake Off in 2023. Recently, she made her debut as the presenter of ITV’s For The Love of Dogs, taking over from the late Paul O’Grady, who sadly died suddenly on March 28, 2023, from cardiac arrhythmia.

Alison is also a panellist on I Can See Your Voice and is a team captain on Rob Beckett’s Smart TV, and The Sun reports that the in-demand star is raking in £19,000 per week. Her Alison Hammond Ltd firm has figures that point to Corporation Tax bills of £46,487 and £107,983 for a two-year period and her Happy Hamster Ltd firm has bills of £163,101 and £84,063. The figures point to taxable earnings after expenses of around £2m.

Meanwhile, things are looking up in Alison’s personal life as she is said to be dating Russian masseuse David Putman, who is thought to be around two decades younger than her.
According to The Sun, Alison would regularly book in for massages with David in between her busy filming schedule. Having formed a friendship, soon romance blossomed and the pair reportedly began dating towards the end of 2023.
On Friday, April 19, the loved-up pair seemingly embraced their relationship status as they enjoyed a romantic trip to Port Lympne Zoo in Kent together.

In photos, the This Morning presenter lovingly wrapped her arm around David, who is known to have trained as a body therapist, and boasts a range of skills including “classic, lymphatic drainage, anti-cellulite, wraps, facial massage,” and gazed at him with a huge smile across her face.
David drove the pair around the Lion Lodge at the zoo in a golf cart while Alison took the opportunity to snuggle up to her hunky new beau. Then when the pair got out to explore the giraffe enclosure, they walked in sync with their arms wrapped around each other and David even shot a friendly wave towards the photographer.
