MAKE ’EM LAUGH
ALISON HAMMOND
She went from the Big Brother house to the This Morning settee and now has a new book out. No wonder the presenter says she’s so happy…
Her laugh is so contagious it can brighten up the gloomiest of rooms, so it is no surprise that when hello! meets This Morning presenter Alison Hammond ahead of the release of her first book, the memoir You’ve Got to Laugh, her distinctive giggle is ringing out for all to hear.
“Whether it’s a sad story or a happy story, you’ve got to laugh because ultimately, laughter is therapy and it helps us through,” she tells us as we settle down for our exclusive interview.
Having interviewed Hollywood’s A-list throughout her TV career, Alison’s memoir is suitably packed full of starstudded anecdotes, including stories of actors Harrison Ford, Taron Egerton and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
