Gogglebox legend looks unrecognisable eight years after quitting hit show
GOGGLEBOX legend Steph Parker looked unrecognisable eight years after quitting the Channel 4 hit show.
The 57-year-old shot to fame on the programme in 2013.
Steph and husband Dom became huge fan favourites for their hilarious commentary and banter between each other.
After seven series on the sofa, the couple decided to step back from Gogglebox in 2016.
Steph returned to our screens today on Good Morning Britain to talk with Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh about joint bank accounts.
The reality star confessed that she wouldn’t have tied the knot with her hubby Dom without one.
Steph looked amazing in silk shirt, pearl necklace and a bold pink lip.
Those watching at home didn’t recognise her on their screens.
One wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: “I would never have guessed that was her off Gogglebox.. looks completely different.”
Steph argued her point against radio presenter Chellce Adams-Jackson
She said: “What’s his is mine and what’s mine is mine.”
Ranvir asked: “Does he agree?”
“Yes,” she replied.
She continued: “In reality, joking aside, I do believe that when you get married, you stand before your god, your friends, your family, you make a pledge, you’re a union.
“I believe going into that union, you should go in level pegging.
“Regardless, we don’t have diaries anymore, i’m not going in with a bag of gold, but we both have careers, so equal footing is already there.
“But I believe if you don’t start together, already there is distrust. It breeds distrust.”
Chelcee said: “I couldn’t disagree more in this day and age.
“Online banking is so easy now to ping over, I think there are many complications having a join bank account.
“Several stories, you’ve got a partner who unfortunately spends in a way who isn’t great, and then somebody else, the other who hasn’t still then falling short and struggling.”
Steph and Dom confirmed their Gogglebox exit back in October 2016.
They exclusively told The Sun: “We think it’s important that everyone gets their chance to be on Gogglebox and give their opinion, and having been on it from the beginning we felt like we’d pretty much said all we needed to say, and we knew what we were going say.”
teph added: “We’ve decided to take a break from it.”
As for whether they’ll be making a return from their “break” the couple were non-committal.
“You can have too much of a good thing, so you can’t overdo it, we just felt it was time,” said Steph.
“We’ve got other projects and not a lot of time. We’re very busy and filming at the hotel was pretty tough.”
She added: “I’m so touched that people have been missing us, because I think there are some incredibly funny characters on there so the fact we’re missed is quite a big deal for us.
“We do still watch it and we enjoy the new characters, it’s still making us belly laugh which is great.”
Earlier this month it was revealed that Steph and Dom are releasing their own range of booze.
The Sun shared how they’ve formed a firm called Guzzlebox Spirits Ltd for the “wholesale of wine, beer, spirits and other alcoholic beverages”.
In 2017, they opened their house as a posh B&B off the back of the show, but it later crashed with debts of £1.8m.
