The first time Joesph was on This Morning, Phillip Schofield asked how Holly knew their guest chef.
Phil introduced him: "Joseph is going to join us now live from East London, this is right up my street Joseph, I cannot tell you, fried chicken sandwich."
"Are you going to declare an interest?" he asked Holly.
Holly then replied: "Good morning! Yes I am, Joseph I have known since he was teeny teeny tiny, so it's really weird for me to sit here now and see you all grown up on the telly! Are you ok?"
Joseph replied: "Well yeah, I am happy to be here! I am happy to be here on the telly with you."

Mimicking Holly, Phil then said: "That was a very caring, 'Are you ok?'"
He added: "Your pedigree is amazing, you were running Bread and Butter Supper Club in Hackney before lockdown, with your mates.
"But you've lived in Italy, worked under Michelin-starred chefs, this is a hell of a pedigree!"
Joseph replied: "Yes, thank you! I moved to Italy just after school, it was terrifying but amazing, I learnt some wicked skills over there that I will never forget."
