Josie Gibson to transform Somerset property into her dream home in ITV series
Gibson, 40, said 'My dream is to build a house as eco and luxurious as possible, where you are immersed in the sanctuary of nature.
'I want to use the acres of land to try my best to have a little small holding. I want bees, birds, badgers to all live in harmony.
A post shared by ITV (@itv)
'Though I'm becoming increasingly concerned that my harmonious dream is slowly turning into a construction nightmare. I can't wait to bring the audience along on this journey with me.'
The seven-part series will see Gibson team up with her brothers, scrap metal traders Josh and Charlie, as well as her cousin Tom to create a dream home fitted with an on-site gym, walk-in wardrobe, and blacked out windows.
Director of entertainment and daytime for ITV, Katie Rawcliffe, said: 'She's done a stint in the jungle and tackled all manner of outlandish tasks on This Morning, but our audiences are about to see a completely new side to Josie Gibson as she embraces country life and takes sustainable living to a whole new level.'
Gibson, who won reality show Big Brother in 2010, has presented programmes including Channel 5's Around The World In First Class and Channel 4's Ultimate Christmas Gift Guide With Josie Gibson.
She finished fourth on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2023.
Josie Gibson's Big Country Build will be broadcast across ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player in 2026.

THE girl who Love Islanders Ben Holbrough and Tommy Bradley cheated on their partners with is an ITV reality star, say insiders.

Tommy, who left the villa with Lucy Quinn, head in his hands and admitted he acted "disrespectfully", telling Maya how he "messed up" for going behind Lucy's back for the secret snog. The Sun can reveal that both Ben and Tommy kissed Towie star Dani Imbert that night. 'Dani spent ages chatting to Ben at the event and they did share a snog,' an eyewitness tells The Sun. 'But then later in the night when everyone had hit the free bar, she ended up kissing Tommy too. 'As far as she was concerned they were both single - and so is she!' Dani's rep had no comment when contacted by The Sun. The next day it was revealed that Tommy had split from Lucy, who he left the villa with after a shock dumping. Speaking on Aftersun last night he vowed to stay friends with her, saying xxxx But it sounds like Ben's ex Andrada isn't keen on staying friends with him. Love Island Andrada Pop opens up on villa experience She also turned on him during the penultimate episode when the axed Islanders returned to the villa to send one couple home before the final. The taxi driver, 23, and the nail technician, 27, vowed to give their romance a go on the outside after they were dumped from the villa following a public vote. But just days after they gushed over each other on Love Island 's Aftersun, the pair seemed to have already called it a day. Returning to the villa, the gang voted to sent Meg and Dejon home, but before all the votes had been cast, Andrada brought some extra drama as she confronted her ex, Ben. Maya asked what had happened and Andrada revealed: "So we came outside the villa he went exclusive with me, and he was about to meet my family next week. "It took one event where I wasn't there and his head turned." Ben replied: "I wouldn't say it turned." But Andrada was having none of it, spinning her finger in the air and saying: "360 baby. Turned. Just be a man, like if you're going to do it, do it with chest and stand on it." 8 8 8 8

Rochelle Humes holidays with Myleene Klass' ex-husband amid cheating claims
This Morning's Rochelle Humes has been on holiday with Myleene Klass' ex Graham Quinn as well as husband Marvin Humes just days after the star announced that he had been cheating on her with a mystery celebrity Rochelle Humes has been on holiday with Myleene Klass' ex husband after she accused him of cheating on her at her own birthday party with another female celebrity. The This Morning star,36, was on holiday with her family and friends to celebrate her 13th wedding anniversary to husband Marvin Humes. One guest invited on the group trip to Ibiza was Myleene's ex Graham Quinn. Taking to Instagram, Rochelle shared a series of snaps alongside the caption: "72 hours in Ibiza. Sun, sea, belly laughing, questionable dance moves and spicy margs that tasted better than our decisions." In one picture, Graham can be seen grinning from ear to ear as he poses with Marvin and two other pals. A former bodyguard, Quinn managed JLS during their rise to fame, which saw them place second on The X Factor in 2008 and going on to release hits including Beat Again and Everybody In Love, the Mirror reports. Former Saturdays singer Rochelle, who shares three young children - Alaia-Mai, 11, Valentina, eight, Blake, four - with Marvin, continued her post by writing: "Our annual non negotiable child free trip with old friends who remind you who you are. Sore heads all round today but ironically my battery feels recharged! Just what I needed. Happy 13 my love @marvinhumes what a way to celebrate." Last week Myleene claimed that she had found her husband cheating on her with another famous celebrity at her own birthday party, catching him in the act. The Loose Women panellist shared the allegations about her ex-husband's alleged infidelity while speaking on Paul Brunson's We Need To Talk podcast. She shared: "I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony." "I'm in my house; it's my party. They weren't having sex, but they were unzipping each other." Myleene continued to open up to the love expert, saying: "I kicked everyone out of the party, including his mum and dad. They went back to Ireland, and his dad said 'He doesn't get it from me'. " I remember thinking that was quite a weird thing to say." Myleene and Graham went on to get married. However out of respect, she refused to name the woman he was caught cheating on her with, in order to protect their reputation. It was hinted that the woman in question has built a career off having a 'family brand,' although the incident took place before she was married. Former Hear'Say singer Myleene met Graham back in 2001, when he was working as her bodyguard. The pair went on to have two children together, and spent 12 years together before their dramatic split in 2013. According to Myleene, Graham tried to claim the tryst was an alcohol-fuelled mistake and despite seeing it as a "pretty big red flag" she went through with their wedding in 2011. Myleene opened up about her struggles seeing the 'other woman' live her life. She stated: "I've made peace with that situation now, but for a long time, it was very difficult to see their life. My life literally just broke apart very, very publicly, and their life—they've managed to continue building a family brand on it."
