Josie Gibson 'is exactly what This Morning needs' say fans as she co-hosts with Holly

ok.co.uk:

This Morning fans have heaped praise on "bubbly" Josie Gibson after she supported Holly Willoughby 's return to the hit daytime programme today.

The long-running ITV show has been plagued by controversy in recent weeks after veteran presenter Phillip Schofield, 61, stepped down when it emerged he'd had an affair with a younger male ITV employee.

Holly, 42, made her much-anticipated return today, 5 June, with an emotional speech that saw her fight back tears as she addressed her one time close friend Phil's shock exit.

She was flanked by Josie, 38, who embraced her after she concluded her pre-prepared statement. ITV viewers have flocked to social media to share their thoughts, with Josie garnering much admiration for her sympathetic approach to her co-star.
