Gogglebox star Pete Sandiford has shared an adorable first photo of his girlfriend Paige, referring to her in the caption as his 'best mate'.

Pete, who is often seen on the show alongside sister Sophie, posted the selfie on Instagram, writing: "My Mrs and best mate what more could I ask for.

"Don't worry @sophiesandiford1 you are a close second best friend."

He also added that the snap had been 'taken last year', presumably fending off any potential backlash about social distancing.

Many fans were delighted by the photo of the loved-up couple, with one commenting: "One half of my favourite Gogglebox family looking proper chuffed with life, quite right.

"Happiness trumps bitterness every time."

Another person wrote: "She's a lucky lady, you are hilarious with Sophie on TV."

A third added: "Such a lucky girl to have such a cute funny nice guy. Good luck to you both."

Fans have also been enjoying another revelation about the Gogglebox star and his sister, after it came to light that the siblings are related to none other than the Chuckle Brothers, also known as Paul Elliot and his late brother Barry.

The family have thrown us a few hints, with Paul posting a throwback pic with his 'great niece and nephew' last year, captioning it: "This day 2018 with my great niece and nephew @PeteandSophie #Gogglebox."

Later in the year, he posted another, saying he was a 'proud uncle'.

When Barry sadly passed away in August 2018, Sophie also posted a photo of herself and Pete with their uncles to pay tribute to him - saying he was 'a truly lovely and funny man to be around'.

She said: "You filled millions of childhoods with laughter and entertainment including mine and Peter's," she said.

"You will be sadly missed by many. Rest in peace Uncle Barry. Lots of love from me, to you."
