The post quickly racked up over 14,500 likes and saw fans flooding to the comments section to wish him a good evening whilst lusting over his view.

'Beautiful sky, enjoy your evening,' one fan wrote while another said, 'hope there's someone there to enjoy the view and chill time with you'. A third fan simply said, 'blissfully relaxing' and another praised him for his appearance on This Morning earlier in the day, saying, 'Aw so well deserved. Hope you're got a glass of something going on. Absolutely class on This Morning.'

James, who is a regular on the hit ITV daytime show, appeared via zoom in his kitchen where he made his New York Icebox Cake as well as steak, corn and loaded potato skins for Ruth Langsford and Eamon Holmes.

Talking viewers through the cooking process, James said, “Take the loaded potato skins, you’ve got this nice charred corn on the side - and this is - if you’ve ever been - to that central part of America, this is what they call a canopy."

He continued, “They eat some serious food. You’ve got a beautiful bit of steak, cooked on the bone, nice and simple. And then some loaded potato skins, which we can then take, some more of your BBQ sauce. You can fill in all the gaps with it as well."

As always, James' recipe's can be found on the This Morning app.
