ALISON Hammond looked incredible as she showed off her 13 stone weight loss in a glam gown during London Fashion Week.

Big Brother icon turned TV golden girl Alison, 51, has overhauled her body in recent years and is now proudly reaping the rewards of her hard work. 

Alison looked sensational as she posed backstage ahead of the Vin + Omi “Anarchy” show during London Fashion Week.

The TV presenter was seen in a purple sequinned gown as she stared moodily at the camera.

With full glam makeup and voluminous hair, Alison looked absolutely fabulous.

Alison has spent recent years vehemently denying fat jabs helped her to shed her weight.

How Alison REALLY lost 13st… from £2 trick to breaking scales & toyboy’s role

And we revealed earlier this year that her astonishing weight loss is actually the result of an adventurous gym routine, a toyboy boyfriend and a £2.85 supermarket secret.  

A close pal said: “Alison was mortified when she stepped on the scales in 2020 and her weight was so high the sensor broke. 

“It stopped at anything over 29st, so she has no idea exactly how much she weighed back then.”

The scale shock prompted her to visit the doctor, who confirmed she was prediabetic and needed to slim down or face an early death. 

Now Alison, who is mum to Aidan, 21, works out three to five times a week with her personal trainers Lui Mancini and Ellis Gatfield.  

She combines strength training, boxing and Pilates rather than cardio and when she is busy working she enjoys walking.

But no doubt also helping Alison’s confidence is her lover David Putman, 29, a former Russian model, who she met when she booked in for a massage in 2023.

Alison, previously told how weight loss jabs were not for her because she was “frightened” by “scary” stories surrounding them.

“For a long time now we have wanted to create a fashion company that was affordable and stylish for kids as there is nothing out there stylish for kids who want to feel grown up.

“Fashion changes so quick and we know how to keep on top of it and keep the trends available online. Kids want to feel more grown up and dress grown up and not childlike clothing.

“My Polly kids wear will bring fashion to life for kids with stylist outfits. Amy is the vision, the mother and knows exactly what is on trend, Amy has a huge experience in clothing from years of having her own clothing lines online and in major retailers

However, fans weren’t completely sold on the idea and took to the comments section to share their thoughts.

Another social media user expressed: “She’s a child. Let her enjoy being a child.”

Somebody else said: “It’s all about the money, money, money as the song goes.”

While a fourth added: “Something feels off about this. Sorry but it’s a money making thing and doesn’t seem right.

“She isn’t old enough to do this sort of thing and have the maturity to understand.”

Not all of Amy’s fans felt the same way as one gushed: “We can’t wait to try it, we love the flares!”

Another follower added: “Omg, she’s brilliant. She’s gonna go far, bless her.”
