The bubby Brummie, who shot to fame on Big Brother, recently admitted she was once close to 30 stone, but is now in the "17- 16 ½ range" after hiring a personal trainer and hitting the gym as she thinks about walking down the aisle with David. Talking to Closer about the star's stunning makeover and future wedding plans, a source said: "People think maybe Alison's achieved her weight goal, but she's going to keep going and get as fit and slim as she can, because she wants to look the best she can for her wedding day. It's the new-look Alison, and David thinks she looks sensational. "Two months ago Alison had lost 13st, and now friends think it's more like 14st. She looks even smaller. Alison's never felt happier. Work, love… everything is going right for her, and she's thrilled with the way she looks. It's made her more confident on TV, and she's feeling happier and sexier than ever." While Alison, who is a proud mum to son, Aiden, 20, has not addressed the wedding rumours directly, she did say she "wouldn't say no" to marrying David. The Bake Off star, who had a gastric band fitted in 2007, but had it removed three years later because her body rejected it, revealed in May that she had hired a personal trainer. Alison also said she doesn't deny myself anything, explaining: "I eat everything, but in moderation". On the weekend, the presenter shared a loved-up snap of and her and David on her Instagram Stories, snuggled up together, sporting matching baseball caps with the caption: "Happy holidays to you all. Remember, always choose love." Alison tends to keep her relationship private and doesn't usually features David on her Instagram page. However, in April 2024 she went public with the masseuse by posting a series of pictures online with him. Previously speaking about their relationship, Alison explained how David is very supportive of her and her TV career. She told Heat magazine: "He loves it. He just supports me. Anybody who I bring into my life supports me and whatever I do. They're so happy for me. "I don't like to go into detail about him, because it's my private life, and I want to respect his life as well. But you know I'm loved-up, everyone knows that!" The Mirror has contacted Alison's rep for comment on this story.
