Josie Gibson got caught holding hands with the ‘world’s hottest farrier’ Sam Wolfenden as the pair flirted at Cheltenham Festival on Thursday. 

The This Morning star, 41, sipped on champagne while giggling with the TikTok influencer, 33, as Ladies Day kicked off. 

Sam has racked up 657,000 followers on Instagram after sharing videos of his day-to-day life caring for animals, with fans quickly liking his clips thanks to his muscular physique.

Josie dressed to impress in a wool trench coat, which featured a chequered collar, layering a boucle dress underneath. 

She teamed her outfit with a pair of knee-high boots and styled her hair into a half-up half-down look. 

Josie and Sam previously met in March 2025 when she spoke to him about his online following, and the pair were in high spirits as they headed to Ladies Day.

A source told The Sun: 'Josie and Sam have got incredible chemistry. They were very flirty while filming but it really went up a notch when the cameras stopped rolling.

'There was a lot of laughter and they were clearly very comfortable with each other. They didn’t leave each other’s side.' 

Daily Mail has contacted Josie's representative for comment.  

Josie shared a sweet embrace with Sam when he appeared in a This Morning segment last year, with the star becoming visibly flustered as she confessed she'd already 'forgotten her questions'. 

Asked why his online videos have become such a success, Sam then said: 'I can express my passion,' before the pair descended into laughter.

He then added: 'You don't see it a lot, I've got plenty of jobs in store for you Josie!'
