The One Show's Alex Jones scolds BBC co-star for calling Jermaine Jenas 'fit'

The One Show presenter Alex Jones told off her co-star Nikki Fox for calling Jermaine Jenas “fit” on air.

Alex and former footballer Jermaine Jenas were back hosting the BBC One chat show on Wednesday night (June 8) – but it wasn’t long before things got “awkward” for their co-star Nikki.

Presenter Nikki Fox called Jermaine a “fit man” during a segment about a Fitbit Ionic watches – but it got her in trouble with Alex Jones.

Nikki said: “Jermaine Jenas, you strike me as a fit man,” which prompted the footy star to say: “Oh, I like this…” as he sat up and grinned.

However, Alex shook her head in mock disapproval before she called for the Jermaine compliments to stop immediately.

Nikki continued: “I should have said a man who likes to keep fit and keep on top of it…”

The studio burst out laughing as Alex ordered: “Stop it, Nikki! Honestly.”

But Jermaine added: “I try. Keep going, keep going! Come on, keep it coming.”

The former Spurs player told Alex: “Don’t you start!”

Nikki admitted: “This was always going to be an awkward link for me…”

Both Alex and Jermaine started giggling before they moved on with the show, which featured interviews from comedian Katherine Ryan and the dean of St Paul’s Cathedral – Very Reverend David Ison.

Jermaine recently teased Alex about the Wales national football team after the squad made it to the World Cup.

Wales got the better of Ukraine earlier this week with a 1-0 win, which meant they progressed to the international tournament for the first time in 64 years.

Jermaine hinted to Alex that her Welsh squad wouldn’t last long in the tournament and wouldn’t get the better of England, who have found themselves in the same group as Wales.

Jermaine said: “To top off a fantastic week for you, the Welsh are going to the World Cup, aren’t they!” before sarcastically adding: “You had it on… fully engrossed in the football as usual.”

Alex replied: “Hang on, now. But we’re against you lot now, aren’t we?”

Jermaine replied: “You are. Up against the English now. In our group at the World Cup.”

He then then teased Alex and the Welsh players when he quipped: “But, you know. You got there and that’s the main thing.”

Alex wasn’t having any of it and cried out: “Ay, we’re gonna stay there! Less of it, JJ.”

Jermaine promptly replied: “Football talk, off,” before Alex agreed: “Off.”
