ITV This Morning Alison Hammond shares 'personal update' as fans left gobsmacked

This Morning fans were gobsmacked by a segment on today's episode that ended with Alison Hammond declaring a huge "personal update".

Alison co-hosted Friday's edition of ITV's flagship daytime programme alongside Dermot O'Leary.

The presenters were in disbelief during the first interview of the show as they spoke to two women who class themselves as ecosexual.

Annie and Beth appeared via video link from their home in San Francisco and explained the term means you "enjoy taking pleasure with the earth".

They said: "A lot about ecosex is just really paying attention, it's allowing the sensual pleasure to multiply.

"You can be ecosexual and also heterosexual or homosexual or asexual, it just means that you enjoy taking pleasure with the earth."

"When you go for a walk you're giving the earth a massage with your feet. And you're enjoying your E-spot, your E-spots are eco sexy spots like for example, appreciating flowers as the reproductive organs of the plants."

Annie and Beth spoke about how they have married the sky in Oxford, the grass in Austria and the earth in San Francisco.

However, Dermot was forced to interject as the guests tried to explain "grassilingus".

He later remarked: "Editorial team literally having a heart attack as we speak!"

Annie and Beth showed off their book Assuming the Ecosexual Position-Earth as Love - and stunned the hosts when they revealed the pictures.

Alison left viewers on Twitter in hysterics when she declared she had been converted.

She joked: "I'm in, I'm an ecosexual everybody. I'm in, I'm in girls. Thank you so much."

This Morning fans took to social media platform in disbelief after the section.

Dan said: "I have no words to say what I think about these two. I mean. What the actual f*** are they going on about?!"

Hayley commented: "What am I watching and listening to!!"

Kay joked: "Stop the planet....i wanna get off"

Ursula posted : "Honestly I have truly heard it all now"

Victoria said: "What the hell have I just switched on?!"

This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV and ITV Hub
