Gogglebox’s Jenny sends Lee heartfelt birthday message before show’s return
Gogglebox’s Jenny took control of their shared Instagram account to wish Lee a happy 52nd birthday on Tuesday
Gogglebox stars Jenny and Lee are known for their close bond on telly, and it seems that transfers off camera as well.
Jenny Newby, 64, took control of their shared Instagram account on Tuesday morning to wish Lee Riley a happy 52nd birthday.
She posted a picture of them on their Gogglebox sofa which is in Jenny’s caravan in Hull.
In the black and white snap Jenny had a huge grin on her face while Lee pulled a jokey expression as they cuddled up close to each other.
Jenny captioned the photo: “A big happy birthday to my couch potato and best friend Lee.
“Have a great day, much love to you, Jenny.”
She finished the post with a string of birthday and kissing emojis.
It will be a bittersweet birthday for Lee as he’s been forced to spend it away from his partner Steve Mail.
Steve lives in Cyprus and due to quarantine restrictions they haven’t seen each other in months.
Lee decided to quarantine with Jenny so they could continue to film during lockdown.
Jenny and Lee joined Gogglebox back in 2014.
They became best pals 21 years ago.
The duo met when Jenny was a landlady at a pub in Paull, East Yorkshire, and Lee was a regular punter.
