‘Alison and Dermot are like brother and sister!’

Following rumours of a feud between This Morning presenters Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary, their pal and co-star Josie Gibson has poured cold water over the claims, telling new, “They really do get on!”

The 37-year-old, who is a regular on the ITV daytime show and has hosted alongside Alison in the past, insisted, “Those two are like brother and sister! I don’t know what’s been written but they really do get on. Dermot worships Alison and Alison loves Dermot.”

Proving their friendship is genuine away from the cameras, Josie even revealed that Alison recently bought Dermot a lavish gift. “She bought him a lovely watch not long ago, and they go round to each other’s houses for dinner,” she explained.

“I can’t understand why people think this. They’re really comfortable with each other and when you’re on This Morning and they’re hosting, it is so relaxed.”
