Josie Gibson left her This Morning co-star Vernon Kay and the crew in hysterics as she made an unusual revelation that she “doesn’t understand risotto.” The presenters, who are filling in for Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield during their Easter break, sat down to eat some risotto after a segment where Gino D’Acampo cooked up the rice dish. As the camera returned to the studio, Josie quickly killed the mood as she labelled the dish “alright” but not as good as the Pad Thai the other chef made earlier.

ITV viewers have called for Josie Gibson and Vernon Kay to be kept on as the main presenters on This Morning. The 37 year old and the 47 year old are filling in for Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield while they are on their Easter break.

In a recent interview, Phillip Schofield didn't appear to be best impressed when consumer reporter Alice Beer mentioned his age.
