This Morning star Josie Gibson shared a sweet reunion with her young son after she left the I’m A Celebrity jungle last week.

But in hilarious scenes, Reggie wasted no time in taking a swipe at his mum's camp cooking, leading to her addressing an awkward row in camp. The telly host was in tears as she finally got to greet the youngster, missing him dearly while in the camp.

Viewers had seen Josie crying in camp about being away from her son for so long. But after realising he was doing okay when she received a letter from home, Josie powered on through until she left the camp last Saturday.

But Josie didn't mind missing out on the final, as she screamed with joy when hosts Ant and Dec announced her name in the vote-off. As she left camp she shared all on her jungle experience, before heading straight to another location.

Knowing her little one would be waiting for her, she told the driver: "Come on boys, put your foot on it. Mother’s got her son to see." In scenes that aired in the Coming Out episode on Wednesday night, we saw the moment Josie raced to greet her son.

Seeing Reggie waiting for her, she leapt out of the vehicle and gave him a big hug, sobbing as she did and asking: "Have you missed your mummy?". Josie soon got talking with her son after being apart for three weeks, asking him what he wanted to eat.

Reggie revealed he’d like a chocolate pizza, before dropping a savage dig at her over her cooking in camp, amid rows about the cooking with campmate Fred Sirieix. Viewers of the show know that Josie and Fred clashed after Josie took over the cooking duties, with Fred not happy about it.

While he did repeatedly guide Josie on how to cook the different meals, some of the campmates felt he was interfering with Josie adding he was making her doubt her own abilities. Fred kept commenting that "he could cook" suggesting he didn't feel the same about Josie, while he did compliment her dinners during one episode.

Speaking about the row after Reggie told his mum her cooking "looked disgusting", Josie said: "When I took over as camp chef, Fred didn’t like it. In the end everyone did prefer my food.” She then joked: “No hard feelings Fred but when you’re the better chef, you’re the better chef!"

But it seems Reggie may have felt differently with his savage comment to Josie. Telling her that her cooking looked "disgusting", perhaps he preferred Fred's go at the dinner!
