Since leaving the house, Alison has appeared on many television programmes. These include losing the most amount of weight on Celebrity Fit Club and losing a challenge on Celebrities Under Pressure. She has also appeared on Celebrity Stars in Their Eyes, performing as Nina Simone, Celebrity Ready Steady Cook, as a panellist on ITV's Loose Women, as a presenter on the short-lived ITV Play channel and in 2004 she played herself in Christmas Lights opposite Robson Green. Since 2002, Hammond has been a part of the presenting team of ITV's popular daytime programme This Morning, on which her memorable interviews with many A List Celebrities have become notorious. Alison was born and raised in Birmingham. She was a child actress before becoming a Holiday Rep for Airtours in Tunisia, mostly, but also in other resorts before her TV debut. She now commutes to London for her television assignments. On 5 February 2005, Alison gave birth to her first child, a boy called Aiden.
