The broadcaster revealed Reggie was taken to A&E over the weekend after an accident on a trampoline ladder. The three-year-old needed needed surgery after his painful arm injury.
Josie said staff shortages meant the surgeon who operated on her son had to work a 12-hour shift without a lunch break. She called on support to be made available. She added: "I just think credit to them. How amazing is it to keep doing your job in a crumbled system when you're doing all this."
Her co-host probed Josie for an update on her son's condition and she revealed he is recovering. She said: "He's really, really good and I can't thank anybody in that theatre enough."
