ITV This Morning's Alison Hammond opens up on little-known housemates

This Morning's Alison Hammond has lifted the lift on her home life and admitted that others may question it.

However, the TV personality, who lives with her son and two other housemates, says it works for her.

The 47-year-old discussed her unusual home life with her co-star Holly Willoughby as the pair sat down to be interviewed for her By the light of the Moon podcast, as reported by The Mirror.

During the conversation, Alison explained it is just not her and her son Aiden, 17, who reside at her Birmingham abode but that they have two other houseguests, her gay best friend, Jason, and his pet pooch, Bobby.

Confessing others may wonder 'how does that all work?" she told Holly that she 'absolutely loves' her home situation.

Alison said: "My family life is so like, if you look at it from the outside you’ll be like ‘how does that all work?

"I live with my gay best friend Jason, I've got Jason’s dog called Bobby, there is my son and me and it is such a great family and we work so well together.

"Jason’s there helping me with Aiden, Aiden is there helping Jason, the dog, helping me. It is just such a good little unit and I absolutely love my home life situation I cook for my boys and home life I am winning."

Last year, Alison, who famously fell over and knocked a man into the Albert Dock during a live presenting gig, shared that she regrets not having more children.

The former Big Brother housemate who shares Aidan with ex-husband Noureddine Boufaied, told OK! : "I wish I’d banged out two at the same time. As soon as I had Aidan I went straight on contraception because the doctors encourage you to.

I wish I hadn’t listened and just banged another baby out then."

"I’m so disappointed as I always saw myself with five or six kids, not one. I’ve got so much love to give, I need six to share it all around."
