Peter Andre reveals true colours as he comments on Alison Hammond's 13-stone weight loss
Peter Andre has shared his true feelings about pal Alison Hammond's remarkable weight loss following her pre-diabetic diagnosis which sparked her to make a huge change to her health.
Peter Andre has revealed his opinion on Alison Hammond's remarkable 13-stone weight loss after he was also subject to weight loss injections. Alison, who previously tipped the scales at 28 stone, decided it was time to make a huge lifestyle change after a pre-diabetic diagnosis and losing her mum Maria to type 2 diabetes in 2020.
Speaking in his column, the singer said: ' Alison Hammond is looking amazing and she's spoken about not using weight-loss jabs. She obviously feels fantastic and I don't think it's anyone else's business when it comes to the injections – we shouldn't force people into discussing it.
'I don't know why we think everyone must say what they did or didn't do. Alison is a good friend who has put the work in and done it the hard way, which is impressive. But I'd never judge anyone for taking the injections – it's none of my business.'
Back in 2019, Peter sparked huge concern among fans after sharing a video to Instagram that made him look like he was 'wasting away.'
One fan remarked: "He is getting thinner in the face worrying signs that there could be something wrong with the body?"
Peter immediately confirmed the real reason behind his slimmed down appearance as he said: "I run. Feeling better than ever."
Determined to transform her health, Alison also embarked on a fitness journey with a personal trainer and started to be more mindful of the food she put into her body, the Mirror reports.
Speaking to Heat Magazine, Alison said: "I feel amazing. I feel happy within myself. I've got a personal trainer - she's amazing. She trains me when I can train. If I'm working, I don't train, I'll go for a walk."
The presenter has previously revealed that weights, pilates, and yoga are part of her home fitness regime and she also insists she's not about restrictive diets.
To her, balance is key, as she said: "I don't deny myself anything. I eat everything but in moderation."
Speaking to Women's Health magazine, Alison further detailed her shift from high-fat and high-sugar foods came as a result of reflecting on her mum's concerns and her own experience with pre-diabetes.
She said: "My mum had type 2 diabetes and she was worried for me, so when I then found out that I was pre-diabetic, that was frightening. I thought: 'I have to be an adult about this'. The sweets had to stop – and the fatty foods."
After incorporating healthy changes into her diet and daily routine, Alison has successfully turned her condition around.
She proudly said: "I'm no longer pre-diabetic, so I'm a bit naughtier with my food now. But because my body's working properly, I can allow myself a bit of sugar here and there.
"I love my new shape and although I still have areas I'm conscious of, such as my arms and tummy, it's great being able to wear things I would never have been able to before. I mean, look at me, I'm a bombshell."
Alison also revealed that she was put off considering weight loss medication due to "scare stories". However, she said she "wouldn't look down on anyone who did".

Lola Young shares VERY racy video as she goes topless in latest post to promote her new single One Thing
Lola Young made sure all eyes were on her as she took to Instagram on Tuesday evening with a very racy video. The Messy hitmaker, 24, left little to the imagination as she went topless in the video, covering her modesty with her hand as she sat in a pair of red and white striped shorts. The singer, who is currently promoting her latest single One Thing, looked at the camera as she sang the song's lyrics: 'I wanna pull you closer/ I don't even want your number 'Don't care if you got another/ 'Cause tonight, I'm your only lover/ And I'ma give you that one thing/ I'ma give you that one thing'. At the end of the risqué video the star took her hands away from her breasts as two stars flashed up on the screen. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She captioned the post: 'one thing …. or two'. Fans went wild for the clip as they penned: 'confidence and full glam is such a good combo on you '; 'Goddess'; 'Lola is giving gals confidence with every video! Beauty'; 'I LOVE YOU!! The artistry and lyrics are just'. It comes after Lola opened up about her sexuality after she responded to a comment on her recent TikTok video last month. Dancing and lip syncing to CMAT's track Take A Sexy Picture Of Me, viewers headed straight to the comments to share their love for the star. While one fan joked: 'no man deserves this' Lola unexpectedly replied as she confirmed she does not identify as straight writing: 'i like p***y as well u kno' [sic]. CMAT also loved the tribute to her song as she replied with a series of crying emojis and penned: 'i love u so much this is the best day of my life. ur so fit'. The lyrics of CMAT's new song go 'I did the butcher, I did the baker / I did the home and the family maker / I did schoolgirl fantasies / Oh, I did leg things and hand stuff / And single woman banter / Now tell me, what was in it for me?'. Fans went wild for the clip as they penned: 'confidence and full glam is such a good combo on you ' Lola, who is a Brit School alum, has soared to stardom this year after she went viral with her hit song Messy and was even nominated for two BRIT Awards. And last month the star took to social media to promote her ADHD medicine, Concerta, because it makes her 'see mess now and clean things up'. Lola highlighted that there was an 'over glamorisation' of the hyperactivity disorder which has broken out among Gen Z with many 'jumping on the bandwagon'. But, she argued, the glorification of ADHD in recent years has also helped break down the stigma and made sure 'people are aware of what it's doing to your brain'. The Croydon-born pop singer said: 'Six months ago I started taking Concerta and it has genuinely changed my life, my thought processing and it's changed how I see mess and I can clear up, I feel genuinely a lot happier. 'My experience on Concerta has been incredible, and I would highly recommend it. I think it's super important to break down the stigma of taking medication for mental health because, right now, if you had a heart condition, you may take some. 'So we should make sure physical health and mental health are viewed on par.'

'My voice annoys thousands of people every day, that makes me laugh'
'My voice annoys thousands of people every day, that makes me laugh' Alison Parsons was paid to record 26 phrases that regularly wind people up The woman behind the voice of the Sainsbury's self-checkout tills has explained how she got the gig - and exactly what she was paid to do. Alison Parsons, 36, says it's amusing to her people getting frustrated at "her" while doing their shopping. She first heard about the quirky role through her modelling agent. After self-taping her voice at her home studio in, Alison made it through the "long process" and was offered the job. She had to record phrases such as 'Would you like a receipt' and 'Have you scanned your Nectar card?'. She will remain the voice of the tills until 2028 - after the supermarket chain paid to use her voice for five years. Alison now regularly sees people getting frustrated at the tills when listening to her voice. Alison, a performer, from Kent, said: "It was such a long process. "I had to record 26 lines. They included things like 'would you like a receipt?' and 'have you scanned your Nectar card?'. 'Thank you' is actually a line I had a record three times as they weren't happy with it. "I was trying to neutralise my accent as I've got quite a strong Kent accent. Even now when I go in [to Sainsbury's] I can hear people getting annoyed with it and I just sit there and laugh. If I'm with any friends in the shop they're like 'that's her voice' to other. "And I think they don't believe us." Article continues below Alison had previously modelled for Argos, which is connected to Sainsbury's, along with homeware brand Habitat. It was through this job she was told about the voiceover gig. She said: "I'd done some modelling for the website, and catalogue and an advert for Argos insurance. "I already knew the company liked my voice. I had to do a self-tape. They sent me a few lines to read through in my home set-up. There were months in between where I was told I was shortlisted, but they were testing a voice in Sainsbury's. "They tested the voices that were shortlisted in store, and asked customers, and apparently my voice was their favourite and most relatable. I got picked from there. I can't say the exact figures, but I was paid a day rate over a total of five days. "Then they paid buy out fees, so they buy my voice for a certain length of time. This time it was five years." Alison has worked in the performing industry as a dancer since 2012, but as one of her first voiceover jobs, she felt "really proud". She said: "It was surreal to be honest. I was quite new to voiceover then and I was proud of it and telling a lot of people. "A friend messaged me in December 2023 saying 'I think your voice is on the tills now'. I was coming back from a job in Scotland, so it was in the store in London that I heard it for the first time. One of my best friends shops in Sainsbury's all the time and she'll message me every time saying 'aw I feel like I've seen you today'. Article continues below "Since I've done the job, I've moved house. Where I was before I didn't have a Sainsbury's anywhere near me. Now I've moved house I've got a local Sainsbury's so I'm in there a lot more."

Taron Egerton is looking for love on celeb dating app Raya after splitting from Marvel girlfriend
n has been spotted looking for romance on celebrity dating app Raya after relocating to Los Angeles, California. Taron had been dating actress Chloe Bennet for several months with the pair enjoying dates in the UK and America. But online sleuths have discovered his profile on Raya suggesting the pair have called it quits, just months after making it official in December. The actor's Raya profile said that he was visiting London but resides in LA, and he tagged the track Lou's Tune by DARGZ. In December, Taron was seen enjoying a romantic stroll with Chloe in N ew York City, just days after the pair confirmed their romance. The week before, the couple were spotted for the first time together as they once again strolled though the streets of New York before stopping in a cafe for a kiss. An insider said last year of his relationship with Chloe: 'Taron has had a turbulent few years but things are much better with Chloe in the picture. 'They met in the U.S. and went on a string of dates here before deciding to take a trip to the UK together. 'He showed her some of his favorite spots and they managed to fly under the radar, which was convenient because they're both super-private people. 'They are busy and taking it slowly, but from what they've been telling friends, it is going really well.' The last time Taron reportedly joined celebrity dating app was after his split from is long-term girlfriend Emily Thomas in April 2022. Following their split, Taron deleted all traces of the assistant director from his Instagram profile at the time. At the time sources close to the star claimed their relationship became 'strained' due to their busy schedules. An insider told The Sun back in April 2022: 'Taron and Emily have both been really busy for the past year and it put a lot of pressure on their relationship. 'They have separated and it hasn't been easy for either of them. He is taking some time for himself now but he is open to meeting someone else soon. 'He has been putting himself out there on Raya in the hopes he can ease himself back into dating.'
