The Malone family from the Channel 4 show Gogglebox have welcomed a new member to their fold.

Shortly after the newborn’s arrival this week, the news was shared by relatives on social media.

Julie Malone and her husband Tom Malone Sr., who have been part of the primetime series since it started in 2014, currently appear with their son Shaun Malone. 

Their other son, Tom Malone Jr., who left the show in 2021, shared the news on Instagram on Saturday, announcing the arrival of his new nephew.

He revealed that his eldest brother, Lee Malone, and sister-in-law, Sarah Malone, had recently welcomed their son, Caelan. 

Tom Jr. shared photos of himself holding his newborn nephew, dressed in a white T-shirt while Caelan wore a onesie. 

He captioned the post: ‘Welcome to the family Caelan #UncleDuties.’

Lee and Sarah, already parents to two-year-old Grayson, announced the birth of their second son in a joint post. 

They shared photos of Caelan, born earlier in the week, with their followers.

In their announcement, Lee and Sarah wrote: ‘Our hearts just keep on growing.’ 

Lee later posted a photo of himself leaving the hospital with both children, captioned: ‘Welcome to the team, son.’

The news prompted reactions from the Malone family. Julie commented: ‘Welcome into our family. You are loved so very much, Caelan. Congratulations to you all.’ 

Tom Jr. responded to his brother and sister-in-law’s announcement with: ‘What a guy!!! A new addition to The Boyyyyyssss!!!!! Congrats to you all.’

The announcement received well wishes from fans on social media, with many congratulating the family on the new arrival. 

Meanwhile Daniel Lustig who appeared on the Channel 4 show alongside his now former husband Stephen, has revealed he sees himself falling in love again.

The pair revealed in April they are divorcing after six years of marriage.

Speaking to OK!, Daniel, 43, revealed how he and Stephen, 52, are successfully navigating their breakup and he now feels ready to find love again.

He said: ‘I believe in love and I absolutely still do. I do see myself falling in love again and even possibly getting married again one day.’

Daniel, who runs two salons with fellow stylist Stephen, told how the former couple met when they were both in the queue at the Town Hall.

It comes after it emerged Stephen has signed up to Celebs Go Dating.

Just weeks after the announcement, it was reported Stephen had been scouted by E4 bosses for the dating show and is ‘excited’ to look for love again.
