Popular Gogglebox family jet off abroad after sharing update on Channel 4 show

A popular Gogglebox duo revealed they are taking a break from filming the hit Channel 4 programme as they headed to the United States.

Tom Malone and his wife Julie, who became fan favourites when they joined the show in 2014 with their children Shaun and Vanessa, left England after sharing an update on Instagram.

Their news follows the conclusion of the 21st series last week.

The pair are now in San Francisco where they have promised to post updates of their trip.

Sharing a family snap on their departure, Julie penned to her 239,000 followers: "Well that's a wrap!! Enjoy tonight's show! Thanks for all your support. Have a great summer from us all xx."

Fans were quick to wish the married couple well as they replied in huge numbers to Julie's pic.

One wrote: "Aww can’t believe it’s over, highlight of my week. Enjoy your time off and see you next time."
