ALISON Hammond cuddled up to her toyboy boyfriend last night as she attended a party with her son Aiden.

The This Morning star, 49, and Russian masseuse David Putman, 26, looked happy and close at the Candy Kittens summer party last night.

TV star Alison beamed in a floral dress and shades, while 6ft 10ins David looked smart in a grey shirt worn open over a black tee.

Aiden, 19, smiled beside his mum in similar shades and printed short-sleeve shirt.

The outing at swanky 100 Barrington in Brixton comes after Alison admitted dating was “harder” now her son is older.

Comedians Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe grilled her on their Parenting Hell podcast, and asked: “Are you single Alison?”

And she gushed coyly: “No… I’m not single.. I’m dating.

“I’m dating!”

The lads ask about how dating works as a single parent now Aiden is an adult.

Alison said: “It’s more difficult, he is more verbal now that he is older. He’ll want to know who this person is and he’ll want to meet them.

“It’s a lot harder.

“He’ll wanna know that this guy is treating me well.

How Alison Hammond became a curvy woman’s fashion icon and the flattering style rules she swears by
“The person who I am seeing at the moment, he is on his Instagram and is like ‘yeah I like him, he’s not too in your face’.

Aiden is on it.”

SON’S APPROVAL

Alison went on to discuss the first time the two men in her life met.

She said: “When they actually met, he really liked him, he really thought he was lovely, so that’s nice.

“Thank goodness for that! Because normally Aiden hates anybody I date, literally just not interested.

“And you just know at that point, if Aiden doesn’t like them, this isn’t gonna work.

“There are moments where I think, ‘who’s the parent here?!’

“It’s nice though because I always feel like there’s someone there looking over me, protecting me.”

Alison first met David when she booked in for a massage.

David studied as a body therapist offering, “classic, lymphatic drainage, anti-cellulite, wraps, facial massage” and his services are still advertised on a Russian website.
