"Kerry looks better than most women half her age at the moment, and is young at heart. "Paolo thinks she's super sexy and has told all his mates that he is the lucky one. "Meanwhile Kerry loves the fact that she has a younger man again." The source added: "Paolo's got an amazing body but he's also a sweet guy to boot.

"But she was approached to do the show and is always up for a new opportunity. "Bosses know she makes amazing telly and she's really hoping she finds a proper connection." 5 Kerry's new man is a personal trainer Credit: Instagram 5 The star split with her fiancé Ryan Mahoney last November Credit: Paul Tonge

Alison Hammond reveals reason she told son not to go on Love Island
Alison Hammond has revealed that she told her son "absolutely not' when he asked if he could go on Love Island. The This Morning presenter appeared on Loose Women on Friday (13 June) where she shared that Aiden, her 20-year-old son, has successfully auditioned for the popular ITV2 dating show in the past. She said: 'I advised him to do it later on. You've got to remember he was only 19 at that time. I just think it's too young.' Hammond then joked that she turned into 'mum of the house' and put her foot down to stop him from participating, before stating that she is happy for him to enter but only when 'he has a bit more experience'.
