Few presenters feel as instantly familiar as Alex Jones. For over 15 years, she has been the heart of The One Show and her warmth, wit and natural connection with people shines through. In real life, she’s an even brighter star, lighting up every room she enters.

What stands out about Alex is her disarming honesty. Despite decades in the spotlight, she speaks so openly about self-doubt and what it truly takes to stay grounded in an industry that’s always moving.

In our conversation, she shares some of the parts of her life rarely seen on camera. From growing up in West Wales with a ‘small town big dreams’ mentality to building a long-lasting career and supporting her husband through his mental health struggles.

We cover:

The importance of making mistakes to succeed
Sitting her university finals on the set of a reality TV show
How she broke into the TV industry
How Alex’s view on mental health changed after supporting her husband through his mental health battles
Her thoughts on Jermaine Jenas getting axed from The One Show

Alex reminded me that success isn’t just about talent it’s about consistency, empathy and courage.

Alex Jones is Great Company.
