One of the most loved and enduring stars of the TV show Gogglebox, Jenny Newby, is in hospital, her best friend Lee has confirmed.
Fans of the Channel Four programme began to voice concern when Jenny and Lee were conspicuous by their absence on Friday night's episode of the popular fly-on-the-wall show, now in its 19th series. Lee then appeared at the Bafta TV awards on Sunday night without his best friend and co-star.
Speaking to the Daily Star on the red carpet, Lee said Jenny "isn't very well" and needed an operation. "She is not very well, she is having an operation, a mini one, but she is recovering well though," he said. "She was invited but the appointment was in Bafta week. You can't turn down an NHS operation down can you? But she is doing well."
