ALISON Hammond has been seen in public for the first time with her new boyfriend.
Last week it was revealed the This Morning host had found love with Russian masseuse David Putman.
Now Alison, 49, and David, 26, have been spotted during a romantic day out at the zoo.
Presenter Alison beamed as she walked with her arm around her 6ft 10in man while they made their way around Port Lympne Zoo in Kent.
At one point the new couple hopped into a golf buggy and she was cuddled up to David as he drove.
Earlier this week The Sun revealed Alison and David met after she booked £150 massage sessions with him.
She regularly booked the body therapist and model in between her busy filming schedule.
Alison and David’s friendship then turned romantic at the end of last year.
It is understood the couple have become extremely close having known each other for over a year.
And a pal said David would not be concerned by the 23-year age gap between him and Alison.
They said: “David is a very quiet, unassuming and thoughtful person who likes to play the guitar.
“He’s the strong, silent type, not a pushover, but not chatty like Alison.
“In that sense they’re perfect for each other and to David age is just a number.
“He’s not bothered by fame, he probably didn’t even know who Alison was when they first met.”
And it’s not just Alison’s personal life that’s on the up as we revealed that she’s raking in an eye-watering five-figure sum each week from her telly commitments.
As well as This Morning, she hosts the Great British Bake Off and For the Love of Dogs.
Alison has been raking in around £19,000-a-week as she’s also a panellist on I Can See Your Voice and is a team captain on Rob Beckett‘s Smart TV.
