Alison Hammond has finally confirmed that she’s signed up to the new series of Celebs Go Dating and we can’t wait to see her in action.
After mounting speculation that the This Morning host had taken the plunge, the 44-year-old star finally broke the news on social media that she’ll be appearing in the eighth series of the show.
Sharing the exciting announcement on Instagram, Alison wrote ‘the secret is out’ alongside a video of her promo clip.
In the video, the former Big Brother star enthused: ‘Hi there, I’m Alison Hammond. You may know me from interviewing celebrities on This Morning.
‘So, I’m here, I’ve joined the agency and the reason I’ve joined because I’m looking for that one who can make my heart sing.’
She continued: ‘I know it sounds a little bit cliche, but to be honest with you, I truly am looking for someone who gives me a bit of excitement. Do you know what I mean?
‘I’m already complete. I’m looking for someone who’s secure, together, and got their shi* going on.
‘And someone who’s just really cool. He may be the one… or two.’
Iconic.
Fans are already buzzing to see Alison be taken under the wing of experts Anna Williamson and Paul Carrick Brunson and showed their support by the bucketload.
Former EastEnders star commented: ‘Here she is’, while Love Island’s Jack Fowler wrote: ‘Yessssss!!! You will be in amazing hands with @annawilliamsonofficial and @paulcbrunson! Can’t wait to watch.’
The upcoming new series has already got a star-studded line-up, including Dean, Hollyoaks star Malique Thompson-Dwyer, Towie’s James Lock and Amy Hart.
Discussing her decision to do the show, Amy told The Sun: ‘I have an awful track record with love. My love life is horrendous.
‘I’m a complete loser in love so why would I turn it down? I have a couple of professionals doing all the hard work for me.’
Celebs Go Dating returns to E4 in 2020.
