Josie Gibson has been confirmed for ITV's Cooking With The Stars and will take on This Morning colleague Clodagh McKenna who is also taking part in the show. News of their battle sparked a war of words on the daytime programme, with Josie telling her co-star: "You're going down!"
At the start of this month, usual hosting duo Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, announced they were taking an extended break for Easter, with producers then confirming that they would be replaced by Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary i n the first week, before Josie took over alongside Vernon Kay. Josie and Vernon's first day was Monday, April 11 and, just as titles rolled on This Morning, it was announced that former Big Brother winner Josie will soon be popping up on Cooking With The Stars.
She will join Strictly judge Anton Du Beke, Olympian Dame Kelly Holmes, The Chase's Governess Anne Hegerty, Love Island’s Maura Higgins, TV medic Dr Ranj Singh, comedian Joe Wilkinson and DJ and son of Fatboy Slim and Zoe Ball, Woody Cook. Across a series of exciting cooking battles, the celebrities will be trained by their mentor chefs, including Irish chef Clodagh and Jean-Christophe Novelli, to produce dishes that will be judged by the remaining professionals.
