GOGGLEBOX star Sophie Sandiford has found love with an Irish hunk – and he’s already met her famous uncle.
The TV siblings are related to the Chuckle Brothers, and one half of the iconic duo has given Sophie’s beau his seal of approval.
Gogglebox star Sophie, 24, was seen beaming beside new boyfriend Ben McKeown and brother Pete, 26, as they attended a wedding over the weekend.
Sophie’s uncle, comic legend Paul Chuckle, commented on a snap shared on Instagram: “Looking good guys great to see you all yesterday with @juliejohnson31 @cunny246 to celebrate Jack and @emma_louuise_ wedding..
“you all look stunning but didn’t look like that at end of the night!”

Sophie paid tribute to her late beloved great uncle Barry after his death in August 2018.
She wrote: “A truly lovely and funny man to be around. You filled millions of childhoods with laughter and entertainment including mine and Peters.
“You will be sadly missed by many. Rest in peace Uncle Barry. Lots of love from me, to you.”
Since joining Gogglebox back in 2018, Sophie and Pete have become fan favourites thanks to their sibling banter and hilarious one-liners.
They actually have two other siblings named Harry and Lucy.
Sophie’s new boyfriend Ben is from Northern Ireland and studied at Glasgow University.

He also mingled with Sophie’s brother Pete and his wife Paige at the wedding, as they took a night off from being mum and dad to their baby son Jimmy.
Pete and Paige welcomed their baby son Jimmy in September last year.
Appearances for Jimmy on the Channel 4 hit show have been rare, with many fans crying out to see more of the toddler.
