Another reminder for why you shouldn’t always be too quick to judge!
Alison Hammond has responded to a fan who criticised her for flaunting her wealth on TV in the midst of a cost of living crisis.
A viewer of the show took to Twitter with the complaint:
“I love watching @AlisonHammond but with the cost of living affecting us all, I find it uncomfortable seeing her wearing, what looks like a Rolex.”
To avoid the spread of misinformation, Alison responded to the person to confirm it very much was not a Rolex.
I wish !! It’s actually a Micheal Kors Watch my late mum bought me and it cost her £185 of her hard earned money . It means more to me than any Rolex . Sorry you felt uncomfortable 💓 https://t.co/mZTXXKZe6J
