Alison Hammond and toyboy boyfriend David Putman joined her son Aidan at a party for Jamie Laing’s sweet Candy Kittens brand in London on Thursday – after giving his famous mum’s new relationship the seal of approval.
Last month it was revealed that the 49-year-old This Morning presenter was in a relationship with the 26-year-old Russian masseur, despite their 23-year age difference.
And in a rare public appearance, Alison looked stunning in a plunging floral print summer dress as they all posed for beaming snaps together.
The GBBO was ready for summer, shielding her eyes behind sunglasses and slipping her feet into a pair of wedge sandals.
Meanwhile, David, who towered over Alison, wore a gray shirt open over a casual black ensemble with a cross around his neck.
Alison Hammond, 49, and toyboy boyfriend David Putman, 26 (L) joined her son Aidan, 19 (R) at a bash for Jamie Laing’s sweet brand Candy Kittens in London on Thursday – after giving his famous mum’s new relationship the seal of approval
Last month it emerged that the This Morning presenter was in a relationship with the Russian masseur, despite the 23-year age difference.
While Aidan, who shares Alison with ex-husband Noureddine Boufaied, opted for a statement floral shirt and chinos.
It comes as Alison spoke out about their relationship for the first time, confirming it even has Aiden’s seal of approval.
Speaking about the relationship on Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe’s podcast Parenting Hell, the comedians quizzed the TV star asking, “Are you single Alison?”
Alison responded coyly, saying, “No…I’m not single…I’m dating. I’m dating.’
Alison was also asked about the complexities of dating now that her son is almost an adult.
Alison admitted she was struggling: “It’s harder, he’s more verbal now that he’s older. He will want to know who this person is and he will want to meet him.
‘It’s much more difficult. He wants to know that this guy treats me right.
‘The person I’m seeing at the moment is on his Instagram saying, “Yes, I like him, he’s not too in your face”. Aiden is working on it.”

Alison is reportedly ‘happier than ever’ with her new partner, after a ‘turbulent love life’.
Discussing the first time David and her son met, she revealed: “When they met he really liked him, he really thought he was nice, so that’s nice.
‘Good thing, too! Because normally Aiden hates everyone I date, literally just not interested.
“And at that point you just know, if Aiden doesn’t like them, this isn’t going to work. There are times when I’m like, ‘Who’s the parent here?!’
‘It’s nice, because I always feel like someone is watching over me and protecting me.’
Meanwhile, David is said refusing to listen to his mother’s desperate pleas to end his relationship.
The TV presenter has been dating the Russian masseur since she booked him for a £150 massage and the two hit it off.
But it is said that he ignores it mother Olga advises to break off the relationship because of the age difference and the fame she has brought to her son.

DJ and former Strictly star Melvin Odoom was also on the guest list
She would have called her son every day asking him to break up with Alison, but David firmly turned his back on her advice.
A source said The sun last month: ‘David is happy with his relationship, so anything his mother says won’t affect him.
‘She feels uncomfortable with the fact that her son is with someone who has so much more financial power than he does. Olga’s traditional values do not fit well with their relationship.
“She told him in no uncertain terms that he had to end it. Olga raised her children in the Orthodox Church. This kind of relationship does not fit with her beliefs.
“She calls her son almost every day and tells him how unhappy she is.”
MailOnline has contacted Alison’s representatives for comment.

Originally from Krasnodar in Russia, David left the country for Britain in December 2022 to escape the front line following President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
That’s why David moved to the UK, where he now lives with his uncle Nigel Putman, 71, in Slough, although he spends a lot of time in London for work.
The friend explained that David could avoid being drafted into the Russian army as his father, also called David, is originally from Slough himself and so the young masseur already had British citizenship.
David’s father is reportedly a retired welder and panel beater who moved to Russia in the late 1990s after marrying Russian architect Olga Kovalenko following a divorce from his first wife.
David also has two brothersthe twins Apollo and Sviatoslov, who are three years older than him and were born in England.
