Tom Allen has become a household name, delighting audiences with his comedic flair and charming personality. The 40-year-old has been a beloved presence on our screens for some time, but now his star is truly rising as he takes on a new role – presenting a BBC documentary.
Titled My Big Gay Wedding, the one-off show sees Tom acting as a wedding planner for a gay couple, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the law legalising same-sex marriage in England and Wales. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community himself, Tom is passionate about showcasing the progress that has been made in the fight for equal rights and celebrating love in all its forms.
In addition to his new documentary, Tom has an impressive list of TV credits under his belt. He co-hosted two series of Bake Off The Professionals with Liam Charles, and is best known for hosting The Apprentice: You’re Fired and as the former presenter of Bake Off: The Professionals. He has also appeared on numerous shows as a guest panelist, including Richard Osman’s House of Games, QI, Hypothetical, Celebrity Catchphrase, and The Crystal Maze. Tom is also an actor, with roles in films such as Tamara Drew and Starter for 10.
But amidst all his professional success, there's one aspect of Tom's life that has garnered increasing interest – his personal life. Tom is in a loving relationship with Alfie Garston, and the couple live together in Bromley. Alfie works as a freelance host and performer for the Walt Disney Company, and has also worked in TV production for leading company Fremantle. The two were first pictured together at Jonathan Ross' Halloween party in 2022, and have been happily together ever since.
Tom's relationship with Alfie is especially significant to him, as he previously revealed that he had never been in a relationship before. In an interview with iNews, he shared that he used to think this was a scandal, but has since met many others who have had a similar experience. Despite his busy schedule and solitary nature, Tom has found love and happiness with Alfie.
Interestingly, Tom also discovered a surprising connection to another TV personality – Gloria Hunniford. On the ITV series DNA Journey, it was revealed that Tom and Gloria are cousins through his mother's maternal line. The two have since connected and have even made plans to meet up with Tom's mother, who hails from Northern Ireland.
With his talent, wit, and now a heartfelt documentary under his belt, Tom Allen is certainly a rising star to watch. And as he continues to make us laugh and celebrate love in all its forms, we can't wait to see what he does next.
