Alison Hammond looks slimmer than ever with shrinking waist as she poses in red sequinned top

ALISON Hammond wowed in a plunging top as she posed in festive grotto on This Morning.

The TV star teamed the glitzy blouse with skinny PVC trousers and a black sequin jacket.

The TV favourite, 47, styled her hair poker straight and wore glam make-up, with This Morning fans hailing her look on Instagram.

Alison shared snaps from Friday's show and one amazed fan commented: "Your looking amazing. Are you working out?? Diet??"

Another said: "Alison you look amazing. Keep up the good work. You've got it all. Looks, fantastic personality kind and caring."

In July Alison revealed she had cut out sugar to help her shed the pounds.

She weighed 20 stone at her heaviest and started to lose weight after her beloved mother sadly died in 2020.

"Sometimes I look at myself and go, 'Wow, I am a big girl'. But I like taking up a bit of space.

"I take a little bit of extra space in the world and I don't think I'm hurting anyone."

She added on Lorraine Kelly’s podcast: "We're all going to die eventually. I might die a little bit sooner, but I'm going to live my life to the fullest.

"And if I do die sooner, I'm going to have a fantastic life. I'm going to have a wonderful life. I'm 47 now, I don't know how long I'm going to go on for."

Alison shot to fame when she competed in the third series of then-Channel 4 reality show Big Brother in 2002.

She went on to land a job as a reporter on This Morning in 2003.
