Alex Jones returned to The One Show last night and viewers were thrilled
One fan went so far as to say the BBC1 show "almost died" without her. Crikey
The One Show fans are a dedicated and loyal bunch, so it was no surprise they were over the moon to see Alex Jones return to the green sofa last night.
After taking three and a half months of maternity leave after the birth of her first child, Alex has returned to present the BBC1 show two days a week.
The 40-year-old host said it was “lovely” to be back on the show, and after half an hour “it felt like I’d never been away.”
She added to co-presenter Matt Baker: "Why didn't you tell me it was so difficult? Nobody says that, do they?"
Fans were elated about her return:
