This Morning viewers have claimed it's a 'tragedy' as Josie Gibson made a return to the show. The presenter spent some time at the helm of the ITV daytime programme earlier this month but on Thursday's show (April 27) she joined Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield in the studio.
She was on hand to take This Morning's main presenting duo through her pick of the top coronation party food ahead of the historic event taking place in a matter of days - from a very special Colin the Caterpillar to Coronation Chicken crisps.
Before that though, former Big Brother winner Josie was seen in a pre-recorded segment which saw her flown over the Channel to Disneyland Paris where she met actors Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana at the premiere of Marvel’s new blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

But as she returned to chat food with Holly, 42, and Phillip, 61, fans flooded social media with messages about the 38-year-old TV star as she looked gorgeous in a bright red dress and a mini crown headband in her blonde locks.
@bachelorettem said; "Aww Josie's in #ThisMorning #ThisMorningITV." @mostlystupid tweeted: "Josie's looking great today! #ThisMorning." @Beckie_Miller_ posted: "I want Josie’s crown headband #ThisMorning." But @Richard36643495 added: "Love Josie and it’s a tragedy she’s peddling tat food and not presenting #ThisMorning."
Josie was on as the main host of This Morning earlier this week alongside Craig Doyle after stepping in over the Easter break. Josie and Craig were roped back in to be at the helm of the programme following Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary's previous week-long stint filling in for This Morning's main hosting duo who enjoyed a two-week break from TV duties.
But after Josie took to Instagram with a string of glam snaps taken behind-the-scenes at the ITV studio, the mum-of-one was soon being complimented by fans but they were also quick to make their feelings clear on her This Morning role.
@ivandiamantewolf said: "I keep thinking that you should be the one Full Time on This Morning. In fact, I have started to watch it again since you are there." @michael_p_wilkinson commented: "Josie you and Craig are brilliant!!! You bring a freshness to a tired show… thank you!! We need a change."
@kez25_2000 pleaded: "Please can @itv make you and @craigadoyle a permanent everyday feature on @thismorning? You’re both fantastic and work so well together." @jane.broadbent.965 echoed: "Wish @ITV would keep @josiegibson85 @craigadoyle on full time you have made my week so so professional and funny brilliant." @natsmyname_73 added: "You looked beautiful Josie! You are doing such an amazing job presenting This Morning! I think you’re fab, a breath of fresh air. Well done!"
