This Morning host hints they WON’T be returning after landing surprising new job
A This Morning host has hinted they won’t be returning after landing a surprising new solo job.
Fan-favourite Josie Gibson, 39, is going to be embarking on a journey exploring luxury travel, which means the star will step away from her This Morning spot for a while.
The solo show will look at first class airlines, five, six and even seven star hotels and premium airline seats.
The series will be produced by Honey Bee and Group M Motion Entertainment.
But it seems Josie is more than happy about her new telly gig that delves into first class travel, as she shared: “I’ve got loads of things in the pipeline, I’m still very involved with This Morning, I’m very grateful for This Morning and everything they’ve helped me with because they grew me as a presenter.
“I should be around at Christmas on the [This Morning] sofa, so then I will get back on the road and try to make it all work as much as I can.
“It is going to be amazing because I’m going to be exploring how the other half live, like the first class travel.”
She continued to tell Express.co.uk: “You know when you walk through the airplane and you think, I wonder what is that way? I’m going to be seeing all the stuff that is the other way.
“I love that I can still experience things like that and it absolutely shocks me.”
“It’s a tough gig, but someone’s got to do it,” she joked. “I’m so happy that they’ve asked me, I’m really happy!
“We’ve got quite a few destinations to go to, so yeah we start filming this week.”
Josie also spoke about motherhood being the “hardest job she’s ever done,” as she discussed juggling her presenter duties with being a mum to five-year-old Reggie.
Last year, when she headed into the I’m A Celebrity jungle, Josie was forced to hit back at trolls who made comments about her leaving her son to do the show.
While in the jungle Josie was open about how much she missed Reggie, and was seen breaking down in tears at one point.
After an overjoyed Josie posted the moment the mother and son duo were reunited on social media, some people were quick to send negative comments.
But appearing on Loose Women Josie once again told how hard it was to apart from her only child.
She said: “When I was on there I missed him so much.
“I don’t actually feel like I gave the best of myself because I was so heartbroken, I was pining for him.”
