As the programme drew to a close, Alison and her co-presenter Dermot O'Leary embraced warmly, with her parting words being: "See you in September, bye!"

In a sweet gesture, Dermot began presenting Alison with individual flowers from the set while she spoke about her plans for the summer, reports the Mirror. She continued: "You know what? I'm going to have a little holiday. I'm going to do some housework. It's going to be great, and I'm going to be watching you on the telly."

Over the next few weeks, ITV audiences can expect to see personalities such as Rylan Clark, Sian Welby, Rochelle Humes, Craig Doyle, Emma Willis and Josie Gibson taking turns to present This Morning.

Georgia Toffolo slammed over her ‘controversial' wedding tips for 2025 brides – from £2 flowers to DIY cake
GEORGIA Toffolo has been slammed for insulting local businesses after sharing her "controversial" wedding tips for 2025 brides. The former Made In Chelsea star, 30, tired the knot with Brewdog founder James Watt, 42, in March and won praise from fans for the low-key celebrations - despite their huge wealth. 3 Georgia Toffolo and James Watt tied the knot at a ceremony in Aberdeenshire Credit: Instagram/Georgia Toffolo 3 The couple had a very low-key ceremony Credit: PA 3 Toff shared some of her 'controversial' wedding tips on social media Credit: Instagram While Toff is thought to be a millionaire many times over herself thanks to reality TV and presenting work, James is said to have a net worth of more than £250million. But the TV beauty has now been accused of "ruffling feathers" after urging brides to ditch florists and cake makers in favour of £2 supermarket flowers and DIY sweet treats. In an Instagram post accompanying a video of her intimate wedding ceremony, Toff said: "Controversial? Maybe. Honest? 100%. Pieces of REAL advice I'd give to a 2025 bride." She insisted that wedding cakes are a "complete waste of money" while flowers are "overpriced and overrated". Revealing her money-saving alternatives, she added: "We had the children bake ours [cake] that morning. No fancy tiers, no overpriced price tag. Just made with pure love. Best decision ever. "I [also] grabbed daffodils straight out of the vase on our kitchen table, and you know what? They were perfect. £2 from the supermarket and not a single florist in sight." Her Instagram video, shared with her 1.8million followers, quickly racked up 1.5million views. But some people were left fuming that her tips seemingly urged people to snub "hard-working and talented" local vendors. One said: "Whilst the sentiment of your post is spot on; 'your day, your way', I do think you have slightly missed the mark here. "Especially describing floristry and wedding cakes as overpriced and not necessary. Both professions are very female founder heavy & I think it's a real shame to use your platform to describe the incredibly hard work and talent-driven work of those women as overpriced and unnecessary. BrewDog's James Watt & fiance Toff branded 'unbearable' after latest confession "Your DIY wedding is beautiful because that's what you wanted, but let's not diminish the incredible talent, skill and hard work of the women within the wedding industry." A second blasted: "So instead of spending a few quid of our vast wealth to support local, female-led businesses, I am instead going to tell my almost 2 million followers that what they do is pointless and they're charging too much for their art and skill. "Considering what you charge for an hours appearance, tell me, who is pointless and overpriced here…?" A third chimed in: "As an influencer and privileged person, she has tripped up on this one… this has ruffled more than industry leaders' feathers." A fourth echoed: "I feel like you can say this as you have the privilege of experiencing luxury at any given time, for the absolute majority of people their wedding day is the one day in a lifetime when they may choose to spend a little extra to experience the finer things in life." And a fifth agreed: "You have the benefit of choice and grew up extremely privileged, for most couples their wedding day is the only time they can afford and save for that level of luxury." The I'm a Celebrity winner went on to claim that couples shouldn't spend the morning apart on their wedding day, and the guest list should be small as it's "not a networking event". She also hit out at child-free weddings and insisted that children "add magic, not mess" and said there's "no need for a three-course meal". Toff rounded off her wedding guide by concluding: "You don't have to change your surname Tradition is optional, your identity isn't." And many social media users, despite the backlash, praised her for low-key wedding decisions. One said: "I've said it once and will say it again. Please please never change. You are a breath of fresh air and so on point with outlook on life." "Love this Georgia Toffolo, well said. Weddings are about individuality and not about 'rules'", added someone else. A third wrote: "Totally agree!! You both look so happy and content that's what it's all about!" "I absolutely could not love this more", cried a fourth. Meanwhile, a fifth added: "Good for you Georgia! Agree with everything you said. Yours sounded just perfect." Guests received just 48 hours' notice of the surprise nuptials where Toff and James' spaniel, Monty, acted as ring bearer. The couple, who started dating in 2023, 'eloped' after a ceremony which took place in a small church in the coastal village where fewer than 600 people live. James's two daughters from his previous marriage to illustrator Johanna Basford were bridesmaids in Gardenstown, Aberdeenshire.

Chris Hughes' baby plans with JoJo Siwa after sharing intimate details on love life
Former Love Island star Chris Hughes shared his baby plans with his singer girlfriend JoJo Siwa, whom he bonded with after they met on ITV's Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year Love Island star Chris Hughes revealed he'd 'love to have children' with JoJo Siwa as their relationship continues to grow after meeting on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year. The TV personality, 32, said he and dancer JoJo, 22, discuss their future together, including marriage and children. The duo met each other on ITV's Celebrity Big Brother and immediately got along like a house on fire. She was dating Kath Ebbs at the time, but fans speculated about her connection with Chris as the two were inseparable in the house, with them massaging each other and napping in each other's beds. Not long after the show ended, the two revealed they started dating and have been sharing intimate details into their romance with fans online. In a new chat with US Weekly, Chris discussed his relationship with JoJo and said: "When you're besotted with each other and in love with someone I think it's fun to look forward to those things. "Of course I want to get married to her, I would never shy away from that. And one day I want to have children. We both come from extremely loving families and very wholesome families who care for you so it would be nice to reciprocate that going forward. One day I'd love to have children, it would be an absolute dream for sure." Chris recently revealed JoJo has given his testicles their own names. Speaking to E! News about what she calls the family jewels, he said: "She calls my balls Jimmy and Timmy." He (not so) smoothly went on to point out the pattern JoJo follows with nicknames. She previously said she wanted to call her future kids, Freddy, Eddy and Teddy. Chris, 32, said: "She must love the rhyming lingo within her life," before sharing his thoughts of his future children having rhyming names. "I don't know about those names. I have names that I like. I'm still kind of undecided on them." Meanwhile, Chris recently took to Instagram to share an update on his life, with the upload showing a telltale sign the duo's relationship is moving up the gear. Despite Chris living in the UK and JoJo, 22, being stateside, the pair are regular visitors to each other and showing they are making the long distance work. In his recent social media post, Chris shared an image of a framed photo in JoJo's family home which shows the pair lovingly embraced. The picture is sitting beside other photos of JoJo and her loved ones. In another, the reality star tagged his partner's mum, Jessalyn, in a post as the clan enjoyed a takeaway. Chris wrote in the caption: "Had the best few days. It's so beautiful here." And the note comes as speculation grows about whether Chris will make the move stateside permanent.
