She’s been regularly filling in for Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby as a host on This Morning for the past year and Josie Gibson still can’t believe her luck.
The former reality star – who won Big Brother in 2010 – has presented the award-winning daytime show alongside many famous faces, including Dermot O’Leary, Andi Peters, Vernon Kay and Craig Doyle and she admits she still gets starstruck.

Josie – who has a son, Reggie, four – is presenting the show for four days during February half-term alongside Dermot, who she describes as a “sweetheart”.
Here, the Bristol-born presenter talks about how happy she is to be working on This Morning, why she loves her colleague Alison Hammond (who has been announced as the co-host of this month’s Baftas) and who her latest celebrity crush is…
