Poor Craig!

| Updated:

On This Morning this week, Josie Gibson was left comforting co-host Craig Doyle after he shared some bad news.

The hit ITV show returned for another installment on Monday morning (July 31) with Josie and Craig back at the helm. The much-loved pair reunited to step in and front the show after taking the reins from Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary, who hosted last week.

But minutes into Monday’s episode starting, Irish hunk Craig had some bad news to deliver – and Josie soon rallied around.

This Morning: Craig shares bad news

Welcoming viewers, Josie told co-star Craig: “I have missed you, your sweet Irish tones!” She then quipped: “Have you missed me?” to which Craig replied: “Oh god yeah!”

The pair then discussed what they had been getting up to – and it seems Craig has had a rather stressful few weeks.

“My bike was nicked!” he fumed. Josie then comforted her co-star and gushed: “Oh mate sorry.”

Craig, who has appeared on This Morning since 2022, then explained: “Yeah my race bike. It has very tiny saddle so I hope it hurts, whoever stole it.”

Curious, Josie asked how much the bike was worth. “It’s worth… a lot,” Craig said, before adding: “And all the memories too.”
