Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson paid a special tribute to his pal Alison Hammond on Tuesday's This Morning, interrupting his own interview to give the national treasure a big congratulations for “doing so great”.
When the chat ended, Dwayne asked his publicist off screen if he could extend the interview to speak especially to Alison. "I know you’ve been doing so great," he continued. "You’ve been nominated for all these National TV Awards, you’ve been incredible so ‘mwah’. Congratulations! We’ve got to get married again!”After the break, Dermot turned to Alison and said: “Can we just have a moment? ‘I’ve known you for a long time'.A very happy Alison replied: “It was so exciting!”
Seizing her chance when This Morning took home the award for Best Daytime Show, Alison took to the stage and was encouraged by Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield to say a few words of her own.
