Alison Hammond shares defiant post after her alleged stalker was revealed as her ex-partner – as police drop probe

As an ardent fan of Alison Hammond, I have been following her journey with bated breath, and it’s safe to say that she has faced more than her fair share of trials and tribulations. The recent saga involving her ex-partner, who was accused of blackmail and extortion, has left many of us fans shaking our heads in disbelief.

On a bold note, Alison Hammond posted an update on Monday – following the disclosure that her accused stalker turned out to be her former partner.

A police investigation into a blackmail and extortion plot against TV host has now been dropped. 

In the morning show, Alison, aged 48, asserted that she was coerced into giving large sums of money in cash to an individual who menaced her with the prospect of disclosing misleading information about her personal life if she didn’t comply with his requests.

She informed the police that he warned he would attempt to sabotage her profession using fabricated details, unless she additionally purchased a £5,000 BMW for him as well.

It was Alison’s ex-boyfriend, Ben Hawkins (a man previously suspected of being a crack cocaine user), who had been in a relationship with Alison for approximately ten months starting from May 2022, who was the accused individual.

West Midlands Police has since dropped the case due to a lack of evidence, it has been reported.

On a Monday, she posted a photo on her Instagram Story from the Great British Bake Off page, in response to a question from a fan asking, “Who granted Alison the authority to be so iconic?

Later, she responded with a playful phrase, “Not a clue, bab!” While this was being said, an advertisement for the baking show she hosts played, featuring her gracefully waving goodbye with a blow of a kiss.

As a lifestyle consultant, let me share a personal revelation: For the past year and a half, I’ve found myself under the watchful eye of law enforcement, a situation I never imagined would be part of my reality. Recently, this experience reached an unexpected turning point when I spent an overnight stay in police custody as they continued their investigation.

He added that police took his passport, closed his bank account and seized his possessions. 

In a conversation addressed to the Sun, he lamented, “This ordeal has aggravated my pre-existing feelings of anxiety and depression.

I’ve grappled with incredibly tough, self-destructive ideas, yet I’ve been able to persevere thanks to the support of my parents.

‘I’m just trying to get my life back on track.’

As the one who encountered Alison during our mutual gardening help session thanks to my father, I’d like to share an experience: I found myself under police bail for a period of nine months, and it took a further eighteen months for the case against me to finally be dismissed.

On Wednesday, the West Midlands Police reported that they conducted a comprehensive probe into the matter and have forwarded the case files to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) for review.

The added force indicates that the Child Protection Services determined no additional actions are needed, and everyone concerned has been notified accordingly.

Alison and Ben, who lives with his parents in Redditch, Worcestershire, split in February 2023.

TopMob has contacted representatives for Alison for comment.

In 2023, I found myself developing a relationship with the talented Russian masseur, David Putman, who is 27 years old. We’ve both chosen to maintain a low profile about our romance, preferring to let our bond grow privately.

However, in the January edition of Good Housekeeping UK, Alison expressed that she and David complement each other beautifully, much like pieces in a puzzle fitting perfectly together, as she discussed how their characteristics offset one another.

Regarding our 22-year age difference, Alison remarked: “On paper, it might seem significant. However, in reality, the term ‘toyboy’ doesn’t reflect our relationship at all.

As a lifestyle expert, I find myself in an interesting dynamic: I am 22 years his senior, yet our interactions might lead you to question the age gap. It appears that our roles have somehow reversed; he exudes maturity and wisdom, while I embody youthfulness and spontaneity. Over time, many people have come to me with comments like, “Ah, now we understand.

She added: ‘And the things he says to me…they’re just so lovely. It’s like a jigsaw; we fit and it all comes together.’
