"It wouldn’t be fair on them," she commented on potential partners. Adding: "My time is split between my career and my son, where would anyone fit in?"
Josie shares Reggie with her ex-boyfriend Terry. The pair, who've known each other for over 20 years, split five months after Reggie was born. The This Morning star revealed that he had asked her to leave his house just before New Year's Eve in 2018 following a heated argument about his struggle with OCD. She gave birth to their son, Reggie-James, in September of that year and said their relationship problems began to worsen soon after.
When the pandemic started in early 2020, Terry decided to move in with Josie. Josie explained that she didn't want to risk taking Reggie to the supermarket, so she called Terry and told him he should move in with them.
However, once restrictions started to ease again, her ex decided to pack up his things and leave. The star said: "He's [Terry] moved out now. I'm choosing to do it on my own for a little bit at the moment." She has been single ever since they finally split.
Josie hasn't had a serious relationship publicly since the split, and previously admitted she struggled to meet people and 'never' gets hit on. The presenter said: "I never ever get chatted up but do you know what? I hated it when they started banning wolf-whistling because I used to love getting wolf-whistled at."
