Presenter Alex Jones will be a co-host for BBC's Children In Need 2026, joining Mel Giedroyc and other stars for the annual fundraising event. Jones, a familiar face from The One Show, shared her lifelong excitement for Children In Need, recalling watching it as a child with Sir Terry Wogan. She has since relocated with her husband, Charlie Thomson, and their three children from London to a countryside home.
The couple, married since 2015, met in 2011. Alex expressed pride in their marriage's longevity, especially after her husband's past health struggles, including a Lyme disease diagnosis. She also reflected on a past relationship with fellow Welsh presenter Steve Jones. Their breakup in the early 2000s was reportedly due to Steve Jones allegedly stealing an interview opportunity with Angelina Jolie.
