Josie Gibson reveals who her favourite co-host is on This Morning as she gives her honest

Josie Gibson has revealed who her favourite co-host is on This Morning in a candid new chat.

The presenter, 38, has been busy the last few months at the helm of the show alongside an ever-changing roster of co-stars as Holly Willoughby took an extended summer break.

It came after a tumultuous time for the show after Phillip Schofield’s exit following the revelation of his affair with a much younger runner on the show.

And after a summer of working with different stars including Rochelle Humes, Alison Hammond, Dermot O’Leary and Steve Jones – she has told how Alison is in fact her favourite.

She told The Mirror: ‘Obviously my favourite is Alison Hammond. I love Al – she’s got such a special energy. 

‘She is the kindest person on Earth. You could ring Al and after the phone call, you feel a million dollars. 

‘You’d never know if she was in a bad mood because she’s too busy trying to make you feel good.’ 

She went on to describe Rochelle as ‘the sweetest human on Earth’ and Dermot as ‘such a great laugh’ and good with her son Reggie, five. 

Josie added that Steve is an ‘absolute dream’, whilst praising Vernon Kay and branding Craig Doyle ‘hilarious’. 

She also touched on her friendship with Holly saying she is ‘sweet and funny’.

She explained: ‘I have the best job in the world. Holly and I have a great laugh together.’

It comes after Josie admitted her five-year-old son still sleeps in the same bed as her, and shared the reason why. 

The star shares son Reggie – her only child – with ex-boyfriend Terry from whom she separated just three months after giving birth.

But as far as new romances go, the single-mother, who last month revealed she was ‘in love’ with an as yet unnamed new boyfriend, admitted the only person she wants to share a bed with at the moment is her son.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, she joked: ‘I want him in there forever – he will be until he’s 18!’

She continued: ‘The only man in my life is my Reggie. I want to protect him. I’d have to be going out with someone a year before I introduced them to Reg. You’ve got to be careful that people are with you for the right reasons.’

Josie also revealed the dynamics of her relationship with ex boyfriend Terry.

She explained how they share their time with their son, with him taking Reggie ‘two to three’ nights a week and Josie having him on the others.

There is no animosity between the pair, it appears, as Josie admitted: ‘I would never have been able to do what I’ve done if it wasn’t for Terry.’ 

Last month, Josie shared a cryptic caption about ‘liars and cheats’ one week after admitting she was in love with her mystery new boyfriend. 

The presenter took to Instagram to share a snap of herself looking as stylish as ever and penned a cryptic message alongside her post.

She dedicated her post to those with ‘high values’ and wrote about ‘liars and cheats’ in her mysterious caption. She did not confirm what she was referring to. 

Josie wrote: ‘Sometimes in life, you get liars and cheats, and the fabulous thing about strong women is they will not be beat.

‘This one goes out to all those with morals, integrity, high values and self respect.’

Josie continued by thanking Coronation Street actress Claire Sweeney for introducing her to a denim brand from her OOTD.

In the gorgeous snaps, the This Morning co-host cut a chic figure in a denim short-sleeved jumpsuit as she posed up a storm.

She completed the stylish ensemble with a pair of pointed heels and a gold necklace.

A week prior, Josie revealed her love for a mystery man during an appearance on Shopping with Keith Lemon.

She told Keith they werein the early stages of the relationship but it seemed to be going from strength to strength as she explained: ‘There is someone in my life at the moment but it’s early stages.

‘It’s that bit where you’ve got the flutters, can’t-wait-to see-them vibes – you get a little bit nervous.’

Josie also shared that she never had much luck getting ‘chatted up’ when she was single.

‘I never ever get chatted up but do you know what?

‘I hated it when they started banning wolf-whistling because I used to love getting wolf- whistled at’, she joked.

The Big Brother winner was rumoured to be in a relationship with This Morning cameraman Sam Morter, but she has strongly denied the speculation.

The pair triggered the rumour mill to begin in January when the two of them posted a cosy photo holding hands in front of the Eiffel Tower.

But Josie took to her Instagram Stories to put the rumour to bed by saying: ‘I’m just having a little lie down because I’m so tired of this story. I am not in a relationship, neither am I in love with cameraman Sam. 

‘I am not with Sam Morter. I love Sam Morter, he is my work colleague.

‘I’m like his older sister. I’m like his auntie. That’s as far as it goes.’

A visibly infuriated Josie reiterated: ‘There is nothing going on between me and Sam Morter. I don’t know how many times I’ve got to say it!’ 

The new romance came after Josie reportedly signed up for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here after finding herself in a bidding war between ITV and BBC‘s Strictly Come Dancing.
