Josie Gibson admits she's 'skint' and moving 'back into caravan'
Good Morning Britain welcomed Josie Gibson to the show this morning. The ITV star sat down to chat with hosts Ranvir Singh and Ed Balls about her new TV show. Josie, known for hosting ITV's This Morning, has been busy filming a new series, Josie Gibson's Big Country Build, which sees her renovate her Somerset home into an eco-friendly haven, with the help of her loved ones. A promotional video for the new seven-part series was shown on GMB, in which Josie shared the reality of taking on such a big construction project, admitting it has left her "skint". During her interview, she also spoke of the challenges she's faced working so closely with her family and friends on the renovation. Ranvir kicked things off by pointing out, "You know what, you used to live in a caravan before all of this, and now, just a few years later, you've bought this enormous house. You're a great British success story, Josie!" However, Josie admitted: "Well, I'm moving back into a caravan, I don't know about that!" Josie went on to explain that her "dream" has always been to build an eco-friendly property "as off-grid as possible". The TV favourite is working with her brothers, Josh and Charlie, who are scrap metal traders, her cousin Tom, a builder, and a team of locals to help transform her home in Somerset. Josie Gibson (Image: ITV) Josie admitted on GMB that this came with its challenges. She told Ed and Ranvir, "I've actually roped the family in. They say never to work with family or animals, and I've done just that. To say my stress levels are up here... They are great, they are amazing, but there are a lot of challenges, let's say." However, the This Morning host appeared to have no regrets about taking on such a big project, despite the "massive obstacles" she's faced in the process. "I've had a lot of sleepless nights," mum-of-one Josie admitted. "Sometimes, you get this great big dream and you follow your dreams, but you don't realise, with those dreams, there could be quite a lot of hurdles." Josie Gibson's Big Country Build (Image: ITV) Josie's new ITV series, produced by MGM Alternative, is set to air in 2026. ITV has yet to confirm an official release date. The new TV project follows her four-part Channel 5 travel series, Around the World in First Class, which premiered earlier this year. The series featured the star travelling to locations including Hong Kong. For more of the latest breaking news from the Irish Mirror check out our homepage by clicking here

Advertisement 3 Maya has defended her decision to only follow certain Islanders Credit: Shutterstock 3 She hit back after fans questioned why she was only following Shakira, Toni and Yas Credit: Shutterstock 3 Maya hasn't held back with her opinions this year Credit: ITV After this year's show was rocked by the biggest ever divide in the villa, Maya decided to press the follow button for Toni, 24, and her fellow finalists Shakira Khan and Yasmin Pettet. After eagle-eyed fans noticed this, one commented: "People were assuming that she only followed them because they were in the top three. "But she actually started following them a few weeks ago." But Maya was quick to fire back, replying: "No I followed them yesterday after the show was finished. Advertisement "And last time I checked I had free will to follow whoever I like lol." Unlike previous Love Island hosts, Maya has built a reputation for sharing her honest opinion when it comes to the Islanders. She was praised by fans for calling out Harry, 30, and Helena Ford - who he was coupled up with at the time - during the dramatic Casa Amor recoupling. As Harry's shocking behaviour during the classic Love Island twist was revealed, Helena, 29, was seen sniggering. Advertisement But Maya quipped: "I don't know, I probably wouldn't find that funny if I was in a couple with someone like that." Clearly Harry won Maya over as she backed him and Shakira, 22, to win while chatting to them ahead of the results on Monday night. Awkward moment Love Islander's smile drops after Maya Jama makes on air joke about her But Maya was met by toe-curling silence from the crowd when she told them: "You are in the final and there's something that the public have seen that obviously gives love story."
