Alison Hammond has revealed that her 19-year-old son Aidan is great at giving her relationship advice.
The This Morning presenter, 49, made a rare comment about her love life after her her romance with her Russian toyboy boyfriend David Putman, 26, was revealed earlier this year.
Alison and Aidan appeared in a social media video on Wednesday as part of a teaser for new gameshow Romesh Ranganathan’s Parents’ Evening which will air on ITV1 on Saturday where viewers will be given insights into celebrity parental relationships.
In the teaser clip the pair were asked certain questions and had to vote who was better at each topic, with one question being: ‘Who’s better at giving advice?’
Aidan believed he was better at advice which shocked Alison at first before she then partly agreed saying: ‘When it comes to relationship advice you’re very good!’

But she added: ‘But when it comes to career advice I’m not sure!’
They were then asked who was the biggest oversharer and both voted for Alison – with Alison admitting: ‘Yeah maybe I overshare a little bit. I’ll probably overshare in the show!’
Back in June Alison and her toyboy boyfriend David made their red carpet debut alongside her son Aidan at a bash in London.
It emerged in May that the presenter was dating the Russian masseur despite their 23-year age gap.

It came just after Alison spoke out about their relationship for the first time and confirmed it even had Aidan’s seal of approval.
Speaking about the relationship on Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe’s podcast Parenting Hell, the comedians grilled the TV star as they asked: ‘Are you single Alison?’
Acting coy, Alison said: ‘No… I’m not single.. I’m dating. I’m dating.’
Alison was also asked about the complexities of dating now her son is almost an adult.

Explaining the struggles, Alison confessed: ‘It’s more difficult, 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.
‘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 is like ‘yeah I like him, he’s not too in your face’. Aidan is on it.’
Alison is said to be ‘happier than ever’ with her new partner following a ‘turbulent love life’.
Discussing the first time David and her son met, she revealed: ‘When they actually met, he really liked him, he really thought he was lovely, so that’s nice.
‘Thank goodness for that! Because normally Aidan hates anybody I date, literally just not interested.
‘And you just know at that point, if Aidan doesn’t like them, this isn’t gonna work. There are moments where I think, ‘who’s the parent here?!’
‘It’s nice though because I always feel like there’s someone there looking over me, protecting me.’
Meanwhile this summer David was said refusing to listen to his mother’s desperate pleas for him to end his relationship.
The TV presenter has been dating the Russian masseur since she booked him for a £150 massage and the pair hit it off.
But he’s said to be ignoring mother Olga’s advice to pull the plug on his relationship due to the age gap and the fame she has bought to her son.
She is said to have been calling her son every day with pleas to break-up with Alison, but David is firmly turning his back on her advice.
MailOnline contacted Alison’s representatives for a comment at the time.
Originally from Krasnodar in Russia, David left the country for the UK in December 2022 to escape the front line following President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
David therefore moved to the UK, where he now lives with his uncle Nigel Putman, 71, in Slough, but he spends a lot of time in London for work.
The friend explained David was able to avoid being drafted into the Russian army as his father, also called David, is originally from Slough himself, therefore 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 two brother, twins Apollo and Sviatoslov, who are three years older than him and were born in England.
