Gogglebox star's 'secret son' revealed after being 'blocked' from Channel 4 show

The Baggs family have become a firm favourite amongst the younger generation since rising to fame on Gogglebox, and now they've been joined by another 'secret' family member

The Baggs family, who shot to fame on Gogglebox and have since become a hit with the younger crowd, are now TikTok sensations and have launched their own podcast, Not My Bagg, featuring a host of celebrity guests.

Comprising Terry and Lisa Baggs and their sons Joe and George, the family graced our screens from 2020 until they departed in 2022 after three series. Post-Gogglebox, Lisa and her boys have amassed over 360K TikTok followers co-hosting their podcast. However, following their exit, it emerged that there's another Baggs brother, previously unseen on Gogglebox.

He is Danny Bayley, Lisa's 34-year-old son from an earlier relationship. The revelation came via a festive TikTok video where George and Joe groove into frame before Danny joins in. A caption declares: "When the secret brother who wasn't allowed on Gogglebox comes over for Christmas."

Joe quipped in his post: "Danny really stole the show with this one," and Lisa affectionately commented, "My babies" and "My secret son," reports OK!. The reason behind Danny's absence from Gogglebox remains a mystery, sparking curiosity among fans in the comments. .

Joe previously revealed the reasons behind his family's departure from Gogglebox on The Useless Hotline podcast, stating: "We decided that there were things we wanted to do that we couldn't do while we were on the show. There is a reason why there's not many young people on there."

He attributed this to the rise of social media, which he and his brother George are passionate about. Feeling restricted by the show's format, Joe expressed his desire to break free from the cycle of "coming home every week and eating a takeaway." Instead, he wanted to explore new opportunities.

Although they left the show, Joe emphasized that his family cherished every moment of their time on Gogglebox, describing it as the "opportunity of a lifetime." His decision seems to have paid off, as Joe now has two million followers on TikTok, leading to collaborations with major brands like Netflix, Amazon, Spotify, Burger King, and Fanta. His brother George is close behind, with an impressive 1.6 million followers.
