Gogglebox’s Tom Malone Jnr quits show after six years on the sofa

GOGGLEBOX star Tom Malone Jnr has quit the show after six years  on the sofa.

Last year the 26-year-old choreographer and TikTok star, who is dating stunning model Bryony Briscoe, hinted he would quit the show after his girlfriend wasn’t allowed to join.

The Celeb Report previously reported that he said “contract issues” meant she wasn’t able to appear.

And now Tom has jacked it in and says he’s available for other TV work and opportunities.

“So after 6 and a half years it’s finally time to put down the remote, and to say goodbye to Gogglebox,” he wrote on Instagram.

“I’ve loved every minute and I’m eternally grateful to @channel4 and @studiolambert for allowing me to be a part of the show.

The Malone family – and their dogs – have been show favourites since 2014

“But new opportunities are knocking on the door and it’s time to explore them.

“I look forward to enjoying the show as a viewer and not having to worry about having said something stupid.

“PS. Don’t worry my family @themalonesgb and @shaunmalone95 will still be on the show to keep you guys entertained every Friday.

“To the future.”



Tom said the Malones are not afraid to step down from the C4 series

Tom’s girlfriend Bryony’s high-flying job means she is often jetting off to exotic filming locations, recently appearing on location in Marbella, Spain.

But he explained that one place she isn’t being welcomed is on the Malone family sofa when Gogglebox is filming.

Tom told the Daily Star that members of the family are prepared to bail on the show, saying: “If the opportunity was good enough then yeah 100 per cent we would leave.

“I think the rest of us would be able to stay on Gogglebox.”

He added: “Because of contracts and stuff, unfortunately, you won’t see my girlfriend on the show.”

Tom previously told fans he was moving in with the northern stunner, who has 18,000 Instagram followers.

He tweeted: “This time next week I’m gonna be sitting down to watch a Christmas movie with my beautiful girlfriend in our new apartment. I can’t wait.”

Tom joined Gogglebox for the fourth series and has been a show regular alongside his dad Tom Snr, mum Julie, brother Shaun and their rottweillers, Dave, Lucy, Izzy and Joe, ever since.
