Dermot O'Leary slips up over plans 'to marry' Alison Hammond

Friday's instalment of ITV's This Morning saw Dermot O'Leary tell Alison Hammond he would like to marry her.

As usual, the pair presented the final episode of the week and the show saw a couple whose wedding had been postponed due to lockdown given a lovely surprise.

Teasing the segment, Alison told viewers how she had surprised the pair with a ceremony organised in just 30 minutes.

Dermot asked her which side of the aisle she sat on.

Alison said: "I was in the middle. I was representing both of them."

Dermot said: "Did you give them away?" but Alison quickly said: "No, I just surprised them, they got married and that was it."

Alison's co-host then turned to her and said: "If I was going to get married again, I'd want to marry you.

"If I couldn't marry you, I would get married by you."

Alison said: "Oh, really? I love that you want to marry me", to which Dermot quickly replied: "I didn't say I want to marry you, I said..."

His co-star added: "Err rewind it I think you'll find that you did".

Dermot quickly held his head in his hands and shouted "ahhhh"
