Josie Gibson was spotted holding hands with TV star Stephen Mulhern at the weekend and admitted to MailOnline “I’m in love with Stephen.”
Josie’s first public romance came with her Big Brother co-star John James Parton (pictured in 2011) immediately after the show ended in 2010.
But the couple split after just under a year and John went on to star on Love Island Australia in 2018.
John James Parton
Josie’s career in the public eye began with a popular season in the Big Brother house in 2010, in which she won series 11 of the show, at the age of 25.
A big part of her journey on the then Channel 4 show was getting on with housemate John James Parton.
The couple dated just a year after their release from the Big Brother house.
When they went their separate ways, Josie told the Daily Star: “We spent every minute of the day together in the Big Brother house and moved in immediately after leaving the show.
‘We didn’t want to be separated. But the honeymoon period was over. We argued all the time. John wanted me to stop urinating with the bathroom door open and I wanted him to stop moaning and see things from my point of view.’
John went on to star on Love Island Australia in 2018, with Josie telling Daily Mail Australia: “He doesn’t want a girlfriend, he’s just hungry for fame.” He is the most manipulative and calculated person I have ever met.
“I thought we were in love, but all he talked about was magazine offers and photo shoots.”
Ex-fiancé Luke Sanwo
Josie was engaged to plumber Luke Sanwo (pictured in 2014) but they split in 2015 without ever marrying.
Shortly after splitting from John, Josie was in a new relationship with plumber Luke Sanwo, whom she met at the SW4 music festival in London’s Clapham Common.
In 2012, after just six months, Luke popped the question and the couple got engaged.
After a tumultuous few years that involved several temporary breakups, they finally decided to go their separate ways in April 2015.
Josie told him new! Magazine at that point: ‘Luke and I have had a talk and we’re going to take a break from our relationship.
‘The passion is slowly disappearing and is now practically non-existent. “I feel like it’s the right thing to do right now.”
In 2023, Luke recalled a heated dispute just before the split in which he claims Josie was wielding a machete that the couple used to cut meat at barbecues.
However, he told Sun: ‘I felt shocked and amazed, but I didn’t feel in danger. I know she didn’t mean to hurt me.
ex-boyfriend terry
She had her son, Reggie (pictured), with her ex-boyfriend Terry, a property developer from whom she split in 2019.
Two years after separating from Luke, Josie entered into a relationship with a real estate developer and family friend named Terry.
In fact, the couple had known each other for two decades before getting together and welcoming a son, Reggie, in September 2018.
But five months after Reggie’s birth, the couple separated.
In a previous interview with new! Magazine, Josie revealed that Terry had kicked her out on New Year’s Eve 2018 after an argument.
“He has OCD and right after Christmas he went crazy because he had too many of my shoes in the hallway,” she explained.
“So I started and said, ‘Well, then we’ll go!’ And he said, ‘Okay,’ and he bagged our stuff. So Reggie and I headed to a hotel.
However, the couple moved back in together when the Covid-19 pandemic broke out, so they could co-parent during lockdown.
When restrictions were lifted, they went their separate ways again.
Is Josie Gibson single?
Josie sparked rumors of a new romance in August 2023, with cameraman Sam Morter (seen with Josie) touted as her new love, but Josie shut them down.
While Josie shut down romance rumors with Dancing On Ice host Stephen, she hinted at a new flame in August 2023.
On Shopping With Keith Lemon, she revealed that “there is someone in my life right now, but it’s in the early stages,” but has remained silent about his identity.
Rumors circulated that the mystery man was cameraman Sam Morter, who appeared with the TV star several times on his social media, but these murmurs were quickly silenced.
Further speculation arose in November when Josie shared a cozy photo with hairdresser Maurice Flynn, with the caption: “One of the best meals I’ve ever had in my entire existence.” If you ever get the chance, @lavolondon in Marylebone, London is the one.
The company was delicious too!! What an incredible night… I felt like I was in heaven! @mauriceflynn @lavolondon Thank you.’
However, later that year, on an episode of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! she revealed that she was single again.
“I’ve got to find a boyfriend after this,” Josie told the Bush Telegraph as she spoke of her embarrassment at letting out a breath in front of her campmates.
Another contender was hairdresser Maurice Flynn (right), but Josie revealed in December 2023 that she was single again.
