I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Josie Gibson has hit back at bed-sharing shamers as she protests she'll share a bed with her son until he's 18.

The This Morning host, 38, became the last remaining female in the jungle as she came in fourth place but is now safely back on day time screens. Making her debut on the ITV favourite – since her stint down under – next to presenter Craig Doyle.

While the television personality reflects on her time in Australia, one thing is certain, Josie won't plan on being far away from her five-year-old son Reggie any time soon. With the mum-of-one eager to reunite with her bundle-of-joy after her exit from the show.

Speaking about her only child, the former Big Brother winner explained she hadn't been able to let him out of her sights since touching down in the UK. Speaking on This Morning today, she said: "I have cuddled Reggie like you would not believe. It was so nice to be reunited with him."

Josie, who has been a solo parent after parting ways from Reggie's dad Terry, explained to Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly during her departure interview that she'd struggled without her mini-me. She said: "I was missing him so much and you could see I was really sad and I wasn’t myself."

During her stint, she even broke down to her co-star Eastenders star Dannielle Harold as she was overcome with separation anxiety. Telling the actress: "I just miss my little boy. I shouldn't have ever left him this long."

"Just had a little wobble. You just feel very guilty. I'll never leave him this long again, ever," added Josie. Lots of parents online sympathised with the TV star, agreeing that they wouldn't have coped well leaving their own offspring.

One critic penned: "Oh god give me strength, enjoy the money love with your son," as another shamer agreed: "During covid people didn’t get to see family or anyone for such a long time and they complain about being away from family for a month and being paid an enormous amount of money…”

Other disagreed, explaining they would have done exactly the same in Josie's position, with one person adding: "You are creating a better life for you and your darling boy well done Josie," a second wrote: "I would have found it incredibly difficult leaving my children but agree with Josie's I'm A Celeb choice. We need to stop mum shaming and all do our own thing"

On Monday 18 December, Josie was welcomed back with open arms as she opened up about her experience. All while wearing a signature bush style hat.

Teaming her attire with a glittery and festive sparkly skirt, she confessed to her co-star Craig that she's having nightmares after her stint down under. She said: "I still have nightmares now. Who signs up to the jungle with serious phobias?

"It was really scary. I have never seen spiders that big."

This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10:30am.
