Your support makes all the difference.Presenter Josie Gibson has opened up about her new relationship.
The former Big Brother winner has been filling in to co-present This Morning following Phillip Schofield’s departure from the show in May.
Gibson, 38, spoke about her new boyfriend, who she has not named, in Wednesday’s episode (9 August) of Shopping With Keith Lemon on ITV2.
She told the Celebrity Juice presenter: “There is someone in my life at the moment but it’s early stages.
“It’s that bit where you’ve got the flutters, can’t-wait-to see-them vibes – you get a little bit nervous.”
Despite the nerves, though, Gibson divulged that she has told her new partner that she loves him.
“It’s best to just get it out of the way, I don’t like playing games,” she said.
It was reported that Gibson was in a relationship with ITV cameraman Sam Morter, with speculation that the pair had met on the set of This Morning, where Morter worked as a freelance cameraman.
Gibson had shared pictures to Instagram of the pair together on a trip to Paris back in January. In one post, they posed together holding hands in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Morter, who is also a pilot, has also shared several pictures of the couple riding in the cockpit of a plane together.
Morter runs a TV and entertainment production company and is a freelance cameraman who has previously worked on This Morning.
However, in a new Instagram Story shared on Wednesday (9 August), Gibson made pains to clarify that Morter is not the new love she was referring to, saying in a video that there is “nothing going on” between them.
“I am not in a relationship or neither am I in love with cameraman Sam. I am not with Sam Morter. I love Sam Morter, he is my work colleague, I am like his older sister, I’m like his auntie.”
This article was amended on 10 August 2023. It originally stated that Josie Gibson was in a relationship with Sam Morter, but has been amended to reflect her most recent statement.
