Josie Gibson welcomed her son Reggie in 2018 with her then-boyfriend, Terry. The pair had known each other for 20 years but became pregnant just two months after their making their relationship official.
Sadly, they separated just five months after Reggie was born and have been co-parenting ever since.
In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, Josie said of her ex: “He is very involved in Reggie’s life; Reg has the best of two worlds, [Terry] is really good.
“I wouldn’t be where I am today without him, he’s brilliant.”
As for Reggie, Josie says he is “slowly realising” that his mum is on TV and that “he has got a really good life”.

She continued: “He sort of understands it and he’s started school now so I can’t bring him to work with me as much, but he travels to a lot of places.
“This Morning has been so good, they are very considerate that I’m a single mum.”
Josie began appearing on the ITV daytime show in 2019 and was promoted to a regular co-presenter in 2021.
The Bristol-born star has been at the show’s helm more frequently this year after This Morning was forced to shake up its presenters following Phillip Schofield’s resignation.

On reflection, Josie says she has “the best gig ever” and that the public response has been “so lovely”.
She went on: “I haven’t had many horrible ones but they don’t ever say it to your face.
“Sometimes I feel sorry for people who don’t think there are lovely people out there because there are so many nice people in the world, and they have been so nice to me.
“The world is actually a nice place, in my head it is. In fact, they’ve really helped me when I’ve doubted myself at times.”
It comes as Josie has partnered with Sainsbury’s to show how parents can save money with Nectar Prices, particularly when planning children’s parties.
Launched in April, Nectar Prices offers Nectar customers lower prices on over 5,000 products in Sainsbury’s supermarkets and online.
Those who sign up to the Nectar customers will receive discounted prices when they scan their app or card at the till.
Josie said: “Any parent knows the stresses and pressures throwing a children’s party can bring; as I’m very familiar with, having just organised my son’s fifth birthday.
“It’s a lot to think about while also trying to not spend an absolute fortune. So, it’s great to know there are ways to save with Sainsbury’s, like using offers such as Nectar Prices, which means not having to give up on quality and variety.”
