When did Josie Gibson have her baby?

Josie revealed she had given birth to a baby boy called Reggie-James on September 9, 2018.

The I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here contestant announced the happy news that she had welcomed her first child with then-boyfriend Terry, on social media.

Sharing a snap of the hospital cot, she wrote on Instagram: "Apologies to all those people I have yet to thank and get back to.

"I have been in a crazy little bubble and not really with it. My waters broke at my Baby shower last Wednesday and one thing lead to another.... we are delighted to announce we have a beautiful very little baby boy with the loveliest little soul.

"He came out of the Sunroof on Sunday 09/09/2018 (love his birth date) at 6.35 by the best surgeons and @ruhbath staff. I always felt in super safe hands."

Josie, who found fame after winning Big Brother, recently told that Reggie, now 5, sleep in her bed: "I want him in there forever - he will be until he’s 18!"

Before flying out to Australia to participate in I'm a Celeb, Josie spoke about her emotional farewell to Reggie.

The schoolboy is staying with Josie’s family initially, and then will fly out to Australia midway through the series.

The This Morning star has prepared Reggie for their separation and is looking forward to the reunion.

Josie told The Sun: “I’ve done him a lot of videos before I left and also I’ve explained everything that I possibly can to him ever since I signed up.

“So, each morning we’ve been waking up and he says ‘mummy are we going to Australia now?’ And I go ‘not yet Reg’ and he’s going ‘when are we going into the jungle?’

 

Who is Josie Gibson's ex-partner Terry?

Josie's ex-boyfriend, Terry, 48, is a property developer.

When Josie and Terry split up in 2019, just months after Josie gave birth to Reggie.

The relationship broke down following repeated arguments, and came after Josie admitted that Terry had been sleeping in a campervan outside their house.

In an interview with New! magazine soon after the split, Josie revealed how the break became inevitable after the pair had a row over Terry's OCD.

Despite the break-up, Josie has only things to say about her ex.

She said: "Terry has him two to three nights a week and then I’ll have him on the others.

"I would never have been able to do what I’ve done if it wasn’t for Terry."

Josie previously dated welder Sam Player for six weeks in 2017 but they split after she claimed he cheated on her with five other women. 

She was also engaged to a plumber called Luke Sanwo who proposed in 2012 but they split in 2015 after a bitter Twitter feud.
