Josie Gibson has addressed speculations regarding her future on This Morning.
In an Instagram post, the TV presenter said that many fans had lately asked her why she had quit the ITV show.
Given the widespread conjecture, the 38-year-old chose to clarify the situation.
Sharing a picture of herself on This Morning on the social media platform, the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star wrote in her caption: ‘Alreeet lovers, Just to confirm, I have not left @thismorning I keep getting asked why I’ve left, so I thought it’s easier to clear up the rumour mill on here.
‘I am eternally grateful for all your love and support and I can not thank you enough. JG #squashingrumours.’
