She recounted the story on Friday’s instalment of the ITV show, telling co-host Dermot O’Leary: “What a day!”
Hammond said she talked to Kate first, explaining: “She likes spicy cocktails, she likes spicy food.
“So I invited her over to my house, I said, 'Next time you are in Birmingham come over to my house, I’ll cook for you.'
“She was like, 'Yes I will definitely come.' I was like, 'Really?' I was like, 'This is the best day ever!'"
The TV star, 48, then played darts with William.
She said: “I asked him again, 'Do you want to come my house for dinner?'
"He said, 'What would you cook for me Alison?' I was like, 'Well, I would actually cook you some curried coat and rice, some banana bread.' And he was like, 'Yes I’m definitely coming'."
The presenter said William later mentioned to Kate that she had extended the invite, and Kate said she already knew and that Hammond had asked her too.
“I think they are really going to go to my house for dinner!” she exclaimed.
Hammond later shared a snap on Instagram of her with William and Kate.
“These two are Everything!!” she posted.
“Thanks for popping by in Birmingham. Next time dinner at my place!”
