Love it or List it presenter Kirstie Allsopp has taken to Twitter to compare her Location, Location, Location co-host Phil Spencer’s physique to that of French president, Emmanuel Macron, after snaps of his incredibly hairy chest recently went viral. The revealing snap of the Frenchman was part of a series of informal photographs that were released just days before he went up against Marine Le Pen in the French Presidential election run-off vote.
In view of her 427,300 followers, property expert Kirstie claimed that the Frenchman’s body closely resembled Phil’s.
Kirstie wrote: “Whoever put Macron’s head on @PhilSpencerTV’s body, that’s a clever piece of photoshop.
The candid snap was posted by Twitter account @GuidoFawkes and showed the French PM grinning at something out of shot while relaxing on an orange leather sofa.
The politician had the first few buttons of his crisp white shirt open to reveal a chest full of dark hair.

Despite their on-screen chemistry, the pair are close friends after first meeting during a screen test for Location, Location, Location.
Kirstie explained: “I love Phil but I’m not attracted to him and I know he’d say the same about me.
“A lot of people think we’ve had the odd sneaky snog, which just isn’t true,” she said to the Daily Express in 2007.
Kirstie also addressed the issue once again on This Morning after being questioned on the matter by hosts Holly Wiloughby and Phillip Schofield.
