Josie Gibson remaining single because of busy schedule

Josie Gibson is refusing to date as she doesn't want another reason for her attention to be pulled from her son.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, the This Morning presenter plans to kick up her feet and take it easy, revealing she has no male suitors asking her out. Josie has gone on record to state her interest in Jonathan Ross and Ricky Gervais but had to settle for a professional relationship with the pair.

She said: "Aside from spending the morning with Dermot on the 14th, I have no plans… I can’t even pull a party cracker! But I have met Jonathan Ross since and oh my God.

"We were on a show together and he was such a good talker, you could just listen to him for hours. He is such a good storyteller and really unique and exactly how you’d think he is, just really really nice. But I’m aware he’s got a lovely wife! "

She added: "I really like Ricky Gervais as well, there’s something about him and his dry sense of humour. And yes, I was guilty of saying that Kevin Webster was like a fine red wine… but there’s definitely not any valentine for me this year."

Josie admitted she doesn't want a new man to come into her life any time soon because it may take away precious time from her four-year-old son, Reggie. When Josie isn't spearheading This Morning as a holiday break presenter, she often appears across the country to announce the show's competitions.

She said: "I’m not sure Reg would be impressed if I got a boyfriend at the moment. He already shares me with This Morning, and I don’t want him to share me with anyone else. I just haven’t met anybody where I think ‘yeah, you could really fit into my life’... and it’s also the time and effort too - you’ve got to meet, trust them, date, work each other out, the messaging, I just can’t be bothered!”
