Why it didn’t work out: Sam is off the market — and Josie isn’t in the business of stealing someone else’s man!

Josie Gibson and Sam Morter: The Elaborate Prank
In January 2024, Josie posted photos from a romantic trip to Paris with a mysterious man, leading fans to believe she was in a hot new relationship. The pair posed in front of the Eiffel Tower, and the internet went wild. However, Josie and Sam soon revealed it was all a joke. Sam, a cameraman at This Morning, had been caught up in a playful prank that had fans fooled.
Why it didn’t work out: It turns out, the whole thing was a setup! Josie and Sam admitted it was just a fun ruse, and they were never in a romantic relationship. Despite the jokes, Josie made it clear: “I’m not in love with Sam Morter; he’s like a brother to me.”
Josie Gibson and Maurice Flynn: The Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow Romance
In November 2023, Josie hinted at a new romance with celebrity hairdresser Maurice Flynn. After a dinner date and some flirty selfies, fans began to speculate about the pair’s chemistry. But Josie soon clarified that there was no romance — they were simply friends who enjoyed working out together.
Why it didn’t work out: Despite the chemistry, Maurice remained just a friend. Josie admitted, “Everyone thinks we’re having it off, but we’re not. He’s my trainer, and that’s as far as it goes.” Looks like the only thing they were styling was Josie’s hair, not a relationship!
Josie Gibson may have shared some sweet moments with these dashing men, but it seems love is still a work in progress for the This Morning star. One thing is clear, though: Josie is not in a rush to settle for anything less than the real thing. Will the fairy tale come true? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates on Josie’s love life!
