ITV This Morning's Alison Hammond 'in tears' after being served 'divorce' papers

This Morning presenter Alison Hammond was 'in tears' during the live show after being 'served divorce papers' by Hollywood actor The Rock.

The 44-year-old sobbed to hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield about the breakdown of their relationship after Dwanye Johnson married Lauren Hashain last month.

Alison and The Rock, 47, met when she interviewed the former professional wrestler for the ITV flagship daytime show. Overcome by the Brummie babe, he proposed and she said 'yes'.

They 'married' during another interview in 2017, but it seems that their marriage broke down and finally came to an end when said on the red carpet he was serving her divorce papers.

Sat in a bath robe, stuffing her face with popcorn and clutching tissues, Holly and Phil asked Alison how she was.

Alison said: "I just don't know why he would have done this to me. OK, I didn't see him very often, but I know we were in love with each other.

"He meant so much to me."

Vanessa Feltz tried to console Alison and said: "What did he have to offer?"

Alison said: "Well, he was in lots of movies."

The show is not looking for a replacement for the mum-of-one, someone preferably in Birmingham, who looks like The Rock and enjoys going the gym.

*This Morning is on ITV1, weekdays and Sundays from 10:30am
