During the chat, Jasmine broke down in tears as she recalled being embarrassed by the way they lived and how it had caused arguments between her and her mum in her younger years.
Taking to Instagram after the show, the presenter addressed her emotional appearance and thanked the hosts for their support.
Alongside a picture of Alison, Dermot and her mum, she wrote: “Some of you may have seen me and Mum appearing on @thismorning today, discussing Hoarding Disorder along with Jo from @hoardingdisordersuk.

Jasmine went on to share a support page for any other sufferers who need help, adding: “What are your experiences with hoarding?”
Concluding her post, she thanked Alison and Dermot for “being so lovely and welcoming”.
Many of the presenter’s 138,000 followers were quick to send Jasmine supportive messages in the comments section.

A second commented: “It’s great that your highlighting this disease x.
“I must say say I watched you all and it was very emotional x.
“Well done for speaking out on this topic x #hoardingdisorder #mentalhealth #proud xx lots of love #teamconnell x.”
A third added: “Brilliant interview. Love to you and your lovely mum and well done for raising the issue. X.”
During the discussion, Jasmine explained to viewers: “The hoarding is a symptom of a deeper rooted problem, to take away someone’s coping strategy without resolving the underlying problem, then you’re just exacerbating the problem.
“For me, I would say, the thing I have learned over these years is that I concentrate more on having a loving relationship with my mum.”
“And not focusing on her hoarding,” she added while getting emotional.
Alison went on to console Jasmine as she fought through her tears, adding: “I’m so grateful to her because she’s… Sorry… She’s helped me to become a much more compassionate person.
“We used to fight, didn’t we? We used to argue about it all the time. But now, we have a relationship outside that’s not focused on the hoarding.”
This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV.
