Gogglebox star Izzi Warner has shocked fans with a personal update about her love life on the show as she revealed she was single. Viewers had no idea the star of the Channel 4 show, who features with sister Ellie, was no longer with her long-term boyfriend.

Izzi had been dating her boyfriend Grant for a number of years, first posting about him on social media back in 2014. The pair lived together in Leeds with their two children, a son called Bobby and a daughter called Bessie Rose.

Izzi revealed that they hadn't been together for 18 months: She revealed what she was looking for in a new man on the show on Friday night (October 11), after being asked to write her 'Mary Poppins' list of what she would ideally want in a new partner by sister Ellie.

Izzi asked her sister:"My partner who is practically perfect in every way, do you want to hear it? It's quite extensive.

"I've separated it into essentials and nice-to-haves. So on the essentials we've got: hardworking, open-minded, kind, attractive, good with money, clean criminal record, zero drugs police/no drink problem, emotional intelligence, full head of hair, patient, discreet, loyal, supports my hobbies, wants to be my plus one.

"And then nice to haves: nice teeth, nice car, generous, good style, taller than me, cooks nice dinners. So hence why I've been single for the last 18 months."

One shocked fan asked on X, formerly Twitter: "Wait, Izzi is single? # Gogglebox." A second echoed: "Izzi single? I never knew that." And a third stunned viewers wrote: "Wait what did izzy say that she was single??"

In May, Izzi was praised by fans after sharing photos from her "first solo" holiday with her two children. The mortgage advisor posted a video montage from her trip to Disneyland.

"Disneyland, you were magical," she captioned the video. "This was my first solo trip abroad with kids and I just threw myself in at the deep end but I am so glad I did! It was super tiring but so worth it for the memories we've made. This won’t be my last trip with them now I've done the first but maybe somewhere a bit more relaxing next time."
