Gogglebox couple Tom and Julie Malona have told their fans they are 'smitten' as they introduced them to a new member of the family. The stars of the hit Channel 4 show suffered heartbreak earlier this year when one of their beloved dogs died.
The family's pet pooches have made regular appearances on screen as Tom Snr, Julie and their children appeared from their Greater Manchester home. The Malone's have had four Rottweiller dogs throughout their time on Gogglebox, making their debut on the programme in 2014.
But in March, Julie and Tom Snr announced that one of their pooches, Lucy, had died just seven months after the loss of another of their other beloved dogs, Izzey. The family's Gogglebox co-stars were also soon showing their support as the couple said of their dog: "There are no words to describe how much you meant to us."
