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.

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."
