This Morning fans all made the same joke as Alison Hammond hosted a discussion about age-gap relationships.

Friday’s episode of the ITV television show saw hosts Dermot O’Leary, 51, and Alison Hammond, 50, sit down with psychologist Linda Papadopoulos.

Dermot opened up the conversation with, ‘As Bridget Jones finds love on-screen with a younger man, today we’re sharing your age-gap love stories.’

Alison continued, ‘Now we’ve had lots of calls and psychologist Dr Linda Papadopoulos is here to help you out. When it comes to mᴀssive age relationships, where do you stand on this?’

The television presenter has been in a relationship with 27-year-old Russian mᴀsseuse David Putman since December 2023. 

The pair like to keep their relationship out of the spotlight as much as they can.

Dr Linda replied: ‘I’ll tell you where the research stands. The sweet spot if you want to make a relationship last is one to three years. About 8% of us are in relationships ten years or older.’

She then shared a racy reveal about libido and Sєxual fulfillment among older women. 

‘Actually, contrary to public opinion women who are older tend to be happier, especially Sєxually,’ she added.

Some viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on the discussion, with one quipped: ‘I love how they’re doing a segment on ‘age gap relationships’ and Alison Hammond is just sitting there like an audience member! 

‘There was clearly a ‘don’t mention my boyfriend is 23 years younger than me’ clause put into that part of the show #ThisMorning.’;

‘Alison grinning like a Cheshire Cat throughout this discussion.’;

‘Does Alison not want to talk about her age gap between her boyfriend? #thismorning.’

It comes after earlier this month This Morning shared an adorable snap of Alison  kissing her rarely-seen boyfriend during their recent romantic trip to New York.

Alison gave fans a sneak peek of a sweet selfie, in a bid to celebrate Valentines Day.

Alison told her co-star that she was getting emotional and Dermot told her: ‘You don’t need to be emotional Al.

‘You are flying on the crest of the wave, you just got back from New York with your Valentine. Let’s take a look…’

They then showed a black and white snap of Alison and David enjoying a smooch while living their best lives in the American city.

Alison added a ‘Happy Valentines’ sticker over the top of the picture.
