Gogglebox’s Pete Sandiford has opened up and shared some rare details about meeting his wife Paige, who he wed last spring.
Pete and his wife Paige Sandiford née Yeomans got hitched in secret last year, and didn’t tell the public until the autumn – around the same time that they revealed they had welcomed their son, Jimmy.
Chatting on Gogglebox, when the new series returned to our screens on Friday (February 18), Pete spoke about his wife and shared some rare details about how they met.
He told his sister: “It got quite awkward actually our first date when me and Paige went.
“We were in a bar in London, and I bought this bloke a beer, which in London, you don’t seem to buy anyone a drink.
“It was like he was my best friend, he didn’t leave us alone, so he was with us for our whole date!”
Paige has never appeared on Googlebox with her husband, although their son, Jimmy has appeared in his dad’s arms a couple of times.
Taking to Instagram in October to share the sweet photograph (seen above), Pete wrote: My Mrs and best mate what more could I ask for, don’t worry @sophiesandiford1 you are a close second best friend.”
27-year-old Pete revealed the joyous news about his nuptials in September, explaining how they tied the knot in secret in May 2021.
One month prior to their secret wedding, the pair announced in April that they were expecting a child together, and while on stage at the National Television Awards in September 2021, Pete shared the news that Paige had given birth.
Speaking at the event he said: “It’s a bit overwhelming – got it all going on at the moment!”
The TV star then added: “He’s a cool little lad, takes after his mum not me!”
In November, on his birthday, Pete shared a snap of him holding his son and penned: “Jimmy wishing his daddy a happy birthday.”
But other than a few snaps scattered here and there, Pete remains incredibly private about his life away from Gogglebox.
We don’t know much about Pete and Paige, but we do know that according to Paige’s LinkedIn profile, she’s been working as an emergency service call handler in London for three years.
She started her job in the emergency services while studying at a job she started while studying at Queen Mary’s University, with a degree in English language and linguistics.
Pete revealed in an interview with OK! magazine in September last year that the couple had secretly married, where he said: “I’m married now! It was nerve-wracking but the best day of my life. Well, second-best day as I’m a dad now, too.”
