Alex Jones was brought to tears during tonight’s episode of The One Show as her rarely-seen husband Charlie made a surprise appearance as she celebrated 15 years on the show
The One Show presenter Alex Jones became emotional during tonight’s episode as her husband Charlie Thomson surprised her as the series celebrated her 15 year as a host. Alex fought tears as presenters Roman Kemp and Richard Osman welcomed her husband of 10 years onto the programme.
“It’s very weird, it’s weird being this side,” she said as Charlie sat down next to her on the guests’ sofa. “It’s weird being next to you. You’re normally in the garden, building the treehouse now.”
When asked how he felt about Alex, Charlie told the show: “I’m extremely proud, not just from what she’s achieved here but also with the family at home. Balancing those two has been amazing and keeping it tide over at different times. Covid period, always there.” It comes after The One Show was halted as guest Richard Osman replaced Alex Jones on air.

Alex started to well up, adding: “I couldn’t do it without this man at home who keeps everything running while I’m here and sorts out the children and bed time while I’m here.” She added: “And mum and dad and the family and friends at home who keep my feet on the ground.
“Everybody here as well and our viewers who’ve put up with me for 15 years – thank you.”
Alex and insurance broker Charlie married in 2015 and now share three children. The broadcaster previously opened up about the couple’s “rough period” in 2023, when Charlie was battling Lyme Disease and viral meningitis.
Speaking on Gabby Logan’s podcast The MidPoint, Alex said that he is “in a much better place now” but was a “shadow of himself” while he suffered with his mental health over the illness.

“It’s my husband’s own story to tell, so I won’t go into detail, but he suffers with his mental health and we’ve just been through a really bad period where, bless him, he had Lyme Disease and then he had viral meningitis. Lots of things happened recently,” she said.
Ahead of her 15th anniversary special on The One Show, Alex set to record straight around her future on the show. Speaking to Scott Mill’s BBC Radio 2 Breakfast show on Friday, Alex challenged Scott after he said that she’s had a great “innings”.
“What an innings? I’m not leaving Scott,” she said. As Scott replied, “Are you not?” she firmly replied: “No.”
