The 37-year-old TV presenter has worked as a roving reporter and competition announcer on the brunch-time show since 2019, and she has recently been drafted in to co-host the ITV programme at times, and despite her nerves while on air, she "doesn't feel much pressure" on the show.

She said: "I get nervous all the time! Even when I’m doing the competitions, everything! It's literally the best.

"It's brilliant – absolutely brilliant. I get to do a bit of everything, like competitions, I get to go out and about, and now and again I get to dip my toe in and sit on the sofa. Its just perfect, lovely.

"I think if you don’t get nervous before live television ... I like the buzz of it, I still get the buzz! But still get completely nervous though.

"The best thing about being on TV is getting your hair and make-up done, I love having my hair and make up done. I feel like everyone likes to look nice, but do I feel pressure? No I don’t, because I feel like I work for 'This Morning' and I know our viewers aren’t really like that, we’re quite a real programme so I don’t feel much pressure, no but I do like to look nice."

Josie has teamed up with Meridian Foods, the UK's leading producer of palm oil free nut and seed butters, after the company discovered eating 15g of peanut butter - which the former 'Big Brother' star loves - offers the same chemical boost as a 30-second spoon.

As a result, Meridian - https://shop.meridianfoods.co.uk/pages/permissiontospoon - and Josie have launched 10 new spooning positions.

Josie added: "Everyone deserves a little bit of spooning!

"Meridian did research that almost half of us are feeling pretty down in the dumps as we move into winter - I know I’m already finding it harder to get out of bed.

"Meridian then did more fancy and clever research with a psychologist that found that eating one spoonful of peanut butter offers the same chemical boost as a 30-second spoon! Win win! The perfect excuse to grab a jar of peanut butter and your partner more often!"
