‘Gogglebox’ Star Pete Sandiford Cruelly Trolled Over First Snap With Stunning Girlfriend

Let's be honest - our Friday nights wouldn't be complete without a cup of tea and a bit of Gogglebox's Pete Sandiford and his sister Sophie on the tele.

That's why we were pretty upset to see that the hilarious Pete has been trolled for posting a gorgeous picture of him and his girlfriend to Instagram.

What's wrong with some people?

The 26-year-old shared a rare insight into his personal life with the pic, which shows him and his girlfriend Paige Yeomans looking super loved up alongside the caption: "My Mrs and best mate what more could I ask for. Don't worry @sophiesandiford1 you are a close second best friend.

"This was taken last year FYI".

Awwwww.

Yet while most people obviously thought this was a lovely photo, some cruel trolls took to Pete's page to suggest he was punching above his weight.

One wrote: "Jesus christ, batting well above there lad. Congrats."

"The benefits of being on tele" said another, while a third added: "Punching!!"

A fourth cruel person said: "What attracted the beautiful Paige to the TV star Pete? #wayoftheworld #punching"

Luckily it seems not everyone is quite so nasty, with lots of fans jumping to the couple's defense.

"Lucky girl - imagine being with someone this happy and funny!" said one fan, while another added: "Decent, honest lads who make you laugh - always get the girl."

"Love this!" said another with heart emojis, while one hit back commenting: "She's a lucky lady, you are hilarious with Sophie on tv".

Pete's sister Sophie wrote: "Love you guys so much".

Looks like Paige might have some competition too, with a few admirers seemingly devastated that their TV crush is off the market.

"He's taken. You can't have him now ☹" said one follower, tagging her friend, while another said: "That answers our question" alongside a crying emoji.

Pete and Sophie have been firm favourites since they started appearing on Gogglebox in 2018, and we think they are the funniest pair on the show (with BFFs Jenny and Lee a close second).

We also recently discovered that the siblings are the niece and nephew of the TV comedy royalty the Chuckle brothers, so it's no surprise they crack us up so much.

Keep doing you, Pete!
