Alison Hammond has weighed in on rumours that Strictly Come Dancing bosses are considering employing chaperones for the celebrity contestants.
The 49 year old This Morning presenter, who competed on the BBC dance show in 2014 and was partnered with professional Aljaz Skorjanec, shared her thoughts on the matter.This comes after Graziano Di Prima's alleged dismissal and accusations against Giovanni Pernice, leading to speculation that show bosses may hire chaperones for the stars following allegations against the two professional dancers.On Tuesday's (July 16) episode of This Morning, Alison expressed her opinion: "I personally think it's a good idea."When Dermot O'Leary asked if she would have wanted a chaperone during her time on the show, she responded: "Obviously not, I don't want a chaperone.
You just want to enjoy yourself. To be fair, out of the five days training in a week, you probably have cameras in the studio with you three of those days." When Dermot questioned whether she felt safe and secure during her time on the show, Alison insisted: "Yeah, I had Aljaz and he was a brilliant teacher.
