Alison Hammond put on a loved-up display with her rarely-seen boyfriend David Putman as the couple celebrated her 51st birthday.

The This Morning presenter found love with the Russian masseur and model, 29, after she booked a massage with him in 2023.

The couple went public with their romance in April 2024, with Alison sharing a string of snaps together on her Instagram page.

And it was David’s turn to shower Alison with love this week as he posted a loved-up picture of the pair on her birthday.

Taking to his Instagram Story, David posted a selfie of the pair as he wrote: ‘Happy birthday to my love @alisonhammond.’

In the snap Alison was beaming as she snuggled into boyfriend David.

Back in December, Alison candidly admitted to ‘being in love’ with David as she lifted the lid on their Christmas plans and why the age gap between the pair is not a problem.

The lovebirds made their red carpet debut two months after going public with their romance in 2024 at a Candy Kittens bash, where they were joined by Alison’s son Aidan, 20.

And weighing in on the 22-year age gap between her and David, she admitted it isn’t a problem as he is incredibly ‘mature and sensible’, while she ‘is not’.

‘Things are going really, really well,’ she gushed in an interview with The Mirror.

‘He just has the most beautiful energy and everyone feels it when they’re in his presence. It’s very rare. I am so grateful that he chooses to spend his life with me.’

Admitting it feels ‘lovely’ being in love, she added: ‘It makes you more patient, it makes you kinder, because you’ve always got somebody you want to care for — and they’re caring for you.’

When asked if a marriage was possibly on the cards, Alison said they currently have no plans for a wedding at the moment, just because they don’t feel like ‘they need to’.

The much-loved This Morning host is used to going all out at Christmas, but this year, she wants to keep it simple.

She revealed she would ideally just go to a fancy restaurant with David and her son Aidan.

The ITV favourite confirmed the couple has been living together, which makes them ‘happy the way it is’.

She added: ‘I don’t need a ring to show my love to somebody.’

Yet, she left a glimpse of clue revealing if he asked her to marry him tomorrow, ‘it wouldn’t be a no’.

Last year, Alison opened up chatting to Good Housekeeping UK’s for its January issue – saying her and David ‘fit like a jigsaw’ as she revealed their traits balance each other out.

Speaking about their 22-year age gap, she said: ‘I can see how, on paper, you’d notice the age difference.

‘But honestly, when we see the word “toyboy” written about us, it bears no relation to what we have at all.

‘Yes, I’m 22 years older than he is, but if you saw us together, you’d understand. People have said to me: “We get it now.” He’s so mature and sensible, and I’m so not.

She added: ‘And the things he says to me… they’re just so lovely. It’s like a jigsaw; we fit and it all comes together.’
