Alex Jones admitted that she was feeling anxious about her return to The One Show yesterday.
The presenter welcomed daughter Annie into the world last year, and she took some much-deserved maternity leave back in August.
As she made her return to the sofa, Alex and her co-star, Jermaine Jenas, discussed their New Year’s resolutions.
Alex told her co-star: “Mine Jermaine is to be a bit more relaxed, so today is my first official day back from maternity.
“My husband Charlie on paternity and I need to learn to let go a bit of things at home. Let him do it his way. Tricky.”
