This Morning host Josie Gibson left in tears during emotional interview

The One Show host Alex joined Josie and Craig Doyle on This Morning today. The presenter was welcomed onto the show to discuss her new emotional series Reunion Hotel. But immediately after Alex sat down on the iconic sofa, Josie was already tearing up.

Josie explained: “No I have got watery eyes, it’s really emotional!” Alex replied: “Josie you are our perfect audience member.” Using her notes to fan her face, Josie then added: “I find it hard to watch things like that because I’m just crying into my pillow like all through it.”

Alex is currently opening up the doors for a very special hotel for her brand new show Reunion Hotel. Dubbed as a cross between ‘Long Lost Families’ and ‘First Dates’, the show helps to reunite people with someone special from their past.

No I have got watery eyes, it’s really emotional!

Alex then started cracking up as she noticed that Josie was crying once again. The This Morning star added: “I know eyes have started watering, I don’t know what it is!”
