This Morning's Alison Hammond shares rare snap of her ex-husband on TikTok

Alison Hammond has shared a rare snap of her ex-husband, Noureddine Boufaied, the father of her 16-year-old son Aidan.

The much-loved daytime TV presenter jumped on the new TikTok craze in which users show a photo of their child, or themselves, themselves followed by their parents, or themselves and their partner.

Alison shared the video she created to her 870,000 TikTok followers which shows ex-hubby cab driver Noureddine, followed by a selfie in the This Morning studio.

In their photos, the 46-year-old star showed a video of Aidan in a tartan suit grinning beside her at the Mirror Pride of Britain awards.

Sharing the video to her 977,000 Instagram followers as well, Alison wrote: “Aidan is certainly here ! I have no idea where that confidence comes from”.

Fans were quick to compliment Alison as one person wrote: “What a lovely handsome boy he is and all because you are a fabulous mummy! Love you both millions xxx”.

Another said: “Aidan gets his confidence from you. You are beautiful, classy with a positive spirit, confidence and intelligence. I wish you and Aidan the best in all that you do.”

A third wrote: “Handsome young man you have there Alison”.

It is not known when Alison and Noureddine Boufaied divorced, but in 2014 she got engaged to single dad and security guard Jamie Savage after meeting online.

Alison previously discussed her hopes to find lasting love, though, telling Woman's Own previously: "I would love to get married. I’d love to walk down the aisle in a big, white dress and have the fairy-tale wedding.

"I love being in love; I am a different person when I am. My heart sings – it’s amazing."

Alison gave her glistening NTA dress another lease of life for the Pride of Britain Awards while her son looked extra smart in his three piece suit.

The TV personality told OK!: “I thought of all the award ceremonies, Pride of Britain is the one I wanted to bring [my son] to.”

“I tried to make him wear a tie but he wasn’t having it,” she added.

Discussing what it’s like being on This Morning, she added: “[Things with the show are going] amazing. I’ve been loving it. It’s tough coming in, but when you’ve got a lovely presenter like Dermot — I mean, I actually look forward to it now.”

Dermot and Alison took the Friday morning slot over from Eamon Holmes and Ruth Langsford and they are rumoured to potentially host the show full time.
