Josie also revealed the dynamics of her relationship with her ex-boyfriend Terry.
She explained how they spend their time with their son, with him taking Reggie “two to three” nights a week and Josie taking him the other nights.
There appears to be no animosity between the pair, as Josie admitted: “Without Terry I would never have been able to do what I did.”
Last month, Josie posted a cryptic caption about “liars and cheaters”, a week after she admitted she was in love with her mysterious new boyfriend.
The presenter shared a snap of herself looking as stylish as ever on Instagram and wrote a cryptic message alongside her post.
She dedicated her post to those with “high values” and wrote about “liars and cheaters” in her mysterious caption. She did not confirm what she was referring to.
Josie wrote: “Sometimes in life you come across liars and cheaters, and the fabulous thing about strong women is that they can’t be beaten.”
“This post is for everyone with morals, integrity, high values and self-respect.”

“It’s that part where you have the flutter, you can’t wait to see her – you get a little nervous.”
Josie also shared that she never had much luck being “talked to” when she was single.
“I never get spoken to, but you know what?
“I hated it when they started banning wolf whistles because I always loved being wolf whistled,” she joked.

The couple sparked the rumor mill in January when the two posted a cozy photo holding hands in front of the Eiffel Tower.
But Josie took to her Instagram Stories to put an end to the rumor, saying: “I’m just laying down for a bit because I’m so tired of this story. “I’m not in a relationship and I’m not into the cameraman either Sam in love.
“I’m not with Sam Morter. I love Sam Morter, he’s my work colleague.
“I’m like his older sister.” I’m like his aunt. That’s all.’
A visibly angry Josie repeated: “There’s nothing going on between me and Sam Morter. ‘I don’t know how many times I have to say it!’
