They say there are two sides to every story, so after our explosive interview with John James Parton in last week’s new, it was only fair to give former girlfriend Josie Gibson the chance to respond.
And while the TV favourite, who met John James when they entered the Big Brother house in 2010, is keen to draw a line under their ill-fated relationship once and for all, she also wants to set the record straight on what she says really went on behind closed doors.
“It was horrific, what John put me through – he has a very funny memory,” Josie tells new. “I don’t pretend to be somebody I’m not. It was a relationship that went on a couple of months too long. To this day I don’t know if the guy loved me or not. I was with him and not even I can work him out.”
John James, 34, who is now based in his native Australia, told new he saw a different side to Josie, 35, after they left the show and went official with their romance.
“Josie’s got a side of her that is similar to me,” he explained last week. “We’re both very stubborn, argumentative and opinionated. I have changed now, but back then we could both get quite nasty. I didn’t really see that side of her until I left the house. This other side came out I had no idea existed.”
But This Morning presenter Josie insists she has only ever been herself.
