Josie Gibson shows off a string of sexy bikinis as she prepares to hit the jungle shower on I’m A Celeb

JOSIE Gibson has showed off her brand new bikinis ahead of her stint in I’m A Celebrity and its famous jungle shower.

The This Morning star, who is the early favourite to be crowned show queen, received a welcome swimwear delivery just in time for her trip down under.

The stylish bikinis were provided for free by none other than Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly, who has her own brand called Naia.

Appreciative Josie, 38, shared a video of her new sets including a striking red two piece and blue and black options.

The items could make an appearance in the famous waterfall shower which has become part of the show’s folklore.

Stars such as Myleene Klass, Katie Price and Helen Flanagan are all fondly remembered for their scantily clad camp showers.

It’s been a year to remember for Josie in which she has become a This Morning main host regular alongside Holly Willoughby and signed a big money deal for the top reality show on telly.

The rewards have been earned though, with Josie grafting hard since she first found fame in 2010 on Big Brother.

After exiting the house, she decided to embark on a massive weight loss journey and went from a size 20 to an eight.

Around that time, she released two workout DVDs, 30 Second Slim and Josie Gibson‘s 21 Day Fat Burn.

In 2014, Josie also published her book The Josie Gibson Diet, in which she described cutting out processed food and sugar to slim down and shared recipes and meal plans.

The TV star documented the tummy tuck she underwent in 2016, which removed 6lbs and 13 inches of loose skin.

Looking back at her extreme weight loss, Josie now says the lengths she went to would be unsustainable with her current commitments as a mum and host.

She told: “I don’t want to be really, really slim because it just kills me to get there – it takes a lot of exercise.

“I used to cycle to the gym, do two HIIT sessions back to back and then cycle home again. I was so fit, but how can you do that with a two-year-old? I’m a mum with a job so it’s not do-able any more.”

Josie welcomed her son Reggie in September 2018 and – as many mums do – gained weight (around four and a half stone).

She set about slimming down and eating healthily again, but much more gently this time.

“I managed to get back on track after being warned I was at risk of developing type 2 diabetes, but I fell off the wagon again,” she told Closer in 2021.

She added that that her aim was to ‘overhaul’ her diet and fitness to ‘reach a healthy size 12’.

Josie decided to set herself smaller and more manageable targets, like sorting out her sleeping pattern, drinking enough water, doing 30 to 45 minutes of exercise at least three times a week and switching to a healthy diet.

She shared in an Instagram post that same year: “It’s been the most giving weight loss plan I’ve ever been on and there has been no pressure just lots of love from WW [Weight Watchers] coaches, consultants and the community.”

She told the The Sun: “I was eating a lot of stodge before, but I can’t tell you the difference it’s made to my energy.”

Speaking to The Sun exclusively in 2022, Josie shared that she’d slimmed from a size 20 to size 14.

But she added that she wasn’t a fan of fad diets, preferring kinder solutions she could stick to.
