Gogglebox fans made time during the latest episode to show their support for Ellie and Izzi Warner as they took time away from filming. Ellie's boyfriend Nat Eddleston was hit by a car in Leeds last Friday (March 18).
He was rushed to intensive care after suffering multiple serious injuries.
Nat, who is in his 30s and made a brief appearance on the Channel 4 show in 2020 as he filled in for his girlfriend's sister, is understood to have been hit just after midnight. West Yorkshire Police confirmed the road was cordoned off by officers the following morning.

The last update on Nat from police was issued earlier this week. The force confirmed on Monday (March 21): "The pedestrian remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital and enquiries into the incident are ongoing."
As Gogglebox returned on Friday night (March 25), viewers quickly realised Ellie and Izzi had taken a break from filming. Fans were quick to send messages of support.
