This Morning's Alison and Josie share gushing messages after last minute change
Their close bond has perhaps been clear to see since Josie Gibson first started taking on presenting slots on This Morning.
But the Bristol born star decided to publicly tell the world how she truly felt towards the Great British Bake Off host, when she posted a gushing message to Alison, 48, on social media. The presenters were forced to make a last minute dash to host Thursday's episode of This Morning after it came to light that Holly was set to be the victim of an alleged kidnap plot. And so as the two stars rallied together to keep viewers entertained amid the chaos, Josie was clearly put at ease by having Alison by her side.

It’s only the one and only Alison Hammond!"And Alison replied: "Oh, Josie! I hope you don’t mind, I got a bit jealous. I saw you and Holly and you were talking about being blonde and I thought I’m going to shake this up a bit. I’m getting in there."
And soon after the show came to an end, Josie posted a picture of the two of them on set and captioned the post saying: "Thank you for being you." And Alison shared the same post and added a number of floating hearts.
Just moments before Holly was due to go on air, she was pulled from presenting the daytime show by bosses after it emerged that she was set to be involved in the alleged kidnap plot. The mum of three is currently under police guard at her home in London where she lives with her husband Daniel and their three children Harry, 14, Belle, 12 and Chester, eight.

A man, who has never met Holly before, was arrested by police on Wednesday evening which happened to coincide with her husband's birthday. Police cars and forensics reportedly surrounded the man's flat in Harlow, Essex where he lives alone, and searched for evidence.
Gavin Plumb, 36, has now been charged and accused of soliciting to commit murder and incitement to commit kidnap. He is set to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates Court today after being held by officers on Wednesday.
Superintendent Tim Tubbs of Essex Police said “This was an extremely fast paced investigation, with many of our officers and national partners working overnight to secure these charges. The safeguarding of any victim is paramount and we will continue to prioritise this as the investigation proceeds.”
An Essex Police spokesman previously said: 'A 36-year-old man from Harlow has been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to kidnap as part of an ongoing investigation. The arrest was made on Wednesday 4 October.He is currently in custody." Holly has been presenting the show alongside a rotating list of co-hosts including Alison, Ben Shepherd and Josie since Philip Schofield's departure earlier this year.
