The new duo have regularly appeared on the weeknight programme on BBC One as guest presenters but will now take over on a permanent basis from Matt Baker.

The network said it is “the first time newpermanent co-hosts have been appointed on the programme in a decade”.

The 44-year-old former Boyzone singer added he “can’t wait to get going”.

The dad of five, who is also a presenter for Magic Radio, said: “I’m so delighted to officially be a part of The One Show family.

“It’s a show I’ve loved for many years as both a guest and a host and I can’t wait to get started alongside Alex, Jermaine and the wonderful team behind the scenes.”

Former soccer player Jermaine added: “I’m really looking forward to joining as a full-time host alongside Ronan.”

Jermaine will co-present with Alex from Monday to Wednesday, with Ronan joining her on the sofa on Thursday and Friday.

The new arrangements will be in place from May 10.
