Alex Jones has told her fans that life has "been a bit challenging" in a candid update. The One Show host said "things have been a bit tricky" as she checked in with her followers after being notably absent on social media.
The-45-year-old, who hails from Ammanford, said she had received "lovely messages" from people and was "touched" by everyone's kindness. Alex, who shares three children with husband Charlie Thomson, accompanied the post with a picture of a lemon and the hashtag #whenlifegivesyoulemons
In the message, the Welsh presenter told her 337k followers: "Things have been a bit tricky for us recently and in all honesty, I haven’t had time to be on here between working and the children but I randomly logged on and saw all your lovely messages gently asking if we were all ok.

"I was touched by your kindness and so I just wanted to check in and say thank you, and that even though life has been a bit challenging, we are ok and still managing to enjoy the beginning of the holidays and there's still plenty to smile about! (I'll pop some stuff on my stories) #whenlifegivesyoulemons #thekindnessofstrangers."
The television star was inundated with well wishes, as one person wrote: "Sending hugs," and another added: "Sending love Alex to you and your family."
Celebrity pals also commented as Good Morning Britain's Charlotte Hawkins wrote: "Hope all OK, sending love," while Izzy Judd added: "Sending love," followed by love heart emojis.
Alex then took to her stories to share some family moments she's enjoyed recently, including spending a "very special morning" at the Royal Albert Hall at a CBeebies event with her kids as well as meeting the Tiger Who Came to Tea at Hamleys Toy Shop.
