Gogglebox fans thrilled as Jenny makes confession about Lee

Gogglebox stars Jenny Newby and Lee Riley have been thrilling fans since they first appeared on the show in 2014.

The two quickly became firm favourites with viewers due to their hilarious observations on the week's best TV. The best friends are gearing to invite viewers back into their iconic Hull caravan for season 20, which is set to begin in September.

Despite appearing side by side on the sofa during Gogglebox, Jenny and Lee don't actually live together. Lee spends much of his time in Cyprus with partner Steve, while Jenny is married to husband Ray.

During lockdown, however, Lee invited Jenny to stay with him and they ended up spending six months together in the same caravan. Jenny took to Instagram on Saturday to share what it was really like living with her best friend for all that time.

She said: "I never got to say thank you to you, you know for the support you gave me through the pandemic when we was filming, you know the things you did for me like that 9ft by 5ft bedroom, wall to wall walls, and enough room under my bed for a pot noodle and packet of fags!

"And the one shelf you gave me in the kitchen, and I had to stand on a step to get to it. But I just wanted to say all-in-all thank you very much Lee for being my bezzie mate, and I'm hoping to see you soon."

Fans were clearly loving the message. Taking to the comments section, Jane Harrison said: "Love you both, the best duo on the box".

Jennifer Roberts said: "I just absolutely adore you pair!!", while Anne Marie said: "She’s a superstar …..keep well Jenny sending love from Edinburgh". Jo Graham said: "Missing you guys, you are my absolute favourites".
