Gogglebox fans were left doing a double-take on Wednesday, as Tom Malone Jr – who left the show this year – introduced his fans to his older brother Lee.
Lee Malone tied the knot with his wife Sarah Walker this week, with Tom posing for wedding photos outside the picturesque Sale Town Hall in Greater Manchester.
The newlyweds shared some heartwarming news on their wedding day, revealing they were expecting their first baby together, with the tot due in November.
Tom shared pictures from the wedding day, congratulating the happy couple and making it clear he couldn’t wait to become an uncle again.
He said: “A massive congratulations to my older brother @lee_malone and his new wife @swa1ker!!! Welcome to the family!!! And as a combo deal we don’t just get one new Malone…they’re expecting another one in November!!! Couldn’t be happier for you both!”

The comment section below was filled with messages of congratulations, but a number of fans were equally surprised Tom had another brother.
His brother Shaun and sister Vanessa have appeared on Gogglebox in the past, joining Tom Sr and his wife Julie on the sofa to entertain the nation.
Lee, however, has never made an appearance, leading one fan to ask: “How many brothers and sisters have you got Tom? Losing track here, they’re popping up left right and centre!!”

Tom replied in the comment thread, saying: “There’s 6 of us.”
Another fan was equally confused, writing: “M8 you’s are making stuff up now. I thought it was just the 4 of yous and now there’s another brother and a sister and I just can’t keep up.”
Lee, who has an interest in bodybuilding, is the director of Elm Consultancy Ltd and describes himself as a “family man” on social media.
Three years ago he proposed to long-term girlfriend Sarah, who works as a professional dancer and choreographer – much like her new brother-in-law Tom.

The sweethearts were over the moon to marry, with Sarah telling her Instagram followers: “Today I married my best friend, became Mrs Malone & now I’m a mummy to be. We are about to start our biggest & best adventure yet.
“Oh baby we can’t wait to meet you. We love you so much already.”
“It’s official, The Malones,” Lee added, before sharing a picture of a baby onesie and writing: “The hardest secret we’ve ever had to keep… Baby Malone due November 2021.”
