The Bake Off presenter, 48, fronted alongside her co-star , however some were quick to point out a lavish accessory on her wrist.

One user shared on X, aka Twitter: ‘I love watching @AlisonHammond but with the affecting us all, I find it uncomfortable seeing her wearing, what looks like a Rolex.’

However, Alison quickly quipped: ‘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.’

Fans were quick to defend Alison with some claiming she didn’t need to ‘justify’ herself.

One person replied: ‘I don’t get these posts. Alison didn’t have to explain to anyone. If she had been wearing a Rolex what business is it of yours. Alison works very hard and she can wear what she likes. Is it jealousy?’

Another added: ‘Cost of living or not don’t apologise my darling even if you had bought a Rolex what you do with your hard earned cash is up to you but what a lovely gift to have from your mum I wish I had a keepsake to treasure from my mum but i have memories.’
