Alison Hammond stunned as she appeared in a new photo following her impressive 11 stone weight loss over five years. The TV star beamed as she posed in a minidress and heels in a photo shared by her make-up artist, Mikey Phillips, on Monday evening.
In a carousel of images of Alison, 51, shared to Instagram, she can be seen reclined in a grey chair in a studio while wearing a short black ensemble and shiny pink heels. Mikey captioned the post: "High Heels, Bold Moves, Zero Apologies."
The followers of the make-up artist, who also works with the likes of Karren Brady, Olivia Attwood and Rebekah Vardy, rushed to praise the This Morning andThe Great British Bake Off star. That included Ferne McCann, who commented, "errrrm hello you look insane," and Nicola Thorp, who added "STUNNA".
Mikey regularly does the make-up of Alison for her weekly Friday appearances on the ITV morning show, which she co-hosts alongside Dermott O’Leary. On Instagram last month, Mikey shared another glowy look with the caption: "This Morning and Every Morning."

It comes after the presenter, who rose to fame on Big Brother in 2002, has continued to share regular updates as she has embarked on a slim-down journey, with changes to her fitness routine. She recently revealed to Closer magazine that she had begun doing reformer Pilates.
Alison, who is mother to son Aidan, 21, said she had started the practice because she felt "stiff as a board". She explained: "You feel absolutely incredible after it. I really need a good stretch…so reformer Pilates has been brilliant for me."

The star has shared that she has decided to avoid weight loss jabs like Ozempic. "I think that, for people who need to use them, they're a good thing - but for me, as soon as I hear any scare story, I get frightened," she told Good Housekeeping.
"So I haven't wanted to use them, but that's not to say I wouldn't in the future, and I certainly wouldn't look down on anyone who did." She has previously revealed that she was prompted to embark on her weight loss journey after discovering she was pre-diabetic at 28 stone.
