Alison Hammond has been dating her boyfriend for a few months, but there could be signs it’s coming to an end.
The pair were said to have begun dating at the end of last year after she booked in for a massage with the 27-year-old masseuse, and they become friends before it turned romantic.
However, there is speculation the This Morning presenter’s romance with David Putman is over after some social media activity.
After recently disclosing she’d like to marry ‘one day’, she seems to be spending less time with David.
David recently took a birthday trip to Italy, but the 49-year-old presenter wasn’t in his holiday snaps.
He posted a compilation of videos from his European adventure, which were soundtracked by the James Bond theme tune, and wrote: ‘I went on a mission called. “Happy birthday to Me.”’ While she did not feature in the clips, Alison did acknowledge the trip by writing: ‘You deserve it.’

In a second post where David shared solo selfies, she commented: ‘My Bond 😍.’
While speaking in a Q&A on Instagram, she decided to not mention her dating life. When asked where she saw herself in five years’ time, Alison joked: ‘I’ll be 54!’
Another fan asked Alison if she was happy, and she replied: ‘Happiness comes from within’ before turning the question back on her 1.5 million followers. She also answered questions on her favourite perfume (Dior Hypnotic Poison) and how she gets her fake eyelashes to remain attached (glue, she simply replied).

This comes after reports David’s mother Olga doesn’t approve of the relationship. She is said to be calling her son every day and telling him to find a ‘nice Russian girl’.
‘She thinks Alison is way too old for David and doesn’t like all the attention her TV fame has brought to her son,’ a source has said.
‘She’s uncomfortable that her son is with someone who has so much more financial power than him.
‘Olga’s traditional values don’t sit well with their relationship,’ they added when speaking to The Sun.
The source then claimed that Olga, 63, ‘told him in no uncertain terms that he must end it’.

Alison previously confirmed there was romance in her life while chatting to Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe on their Parenting Hell podcast.
When they asked: ‘Are you single Alison?’ she quickly confirmed her status: ‘No… I’m not single.. I’m dating. I’m dating!’
The hosts then asked Alison about what it was like dating as a single parent now that her son, Aidan, 19, was an adult.
‘I think it’s more difficult now because 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,’ she explained.
‘It’s a lot harder. He’ll wanna know that this guy is treating me well.
‘The person who I am seeing at the moment, he is on his Instagram and he is like “yeah I like him, he’s not too in your face”.’
She added that Aiden, whose father is Alison’s ex Noureddine Boufaied, was ‘on it’.

Since meeting Alison and David have been snapped enjoying time together at the zoo and a park, where they shared laughter and hugs. Clearly they are fans of the great outdoors!
Their hangouts come after Alison split from her boyfriend, gardener Ben Hawkins, last year. While they dated for two years, the pair were only pictured together once.
It appears that up until 2022 David was based in Russia, with The Sun reporting that he left in December of that year following President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Elsewhere, Alison has given a clear signal she’s supporting her former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield.
