Gogglebox favourite Pete Sandiford’s wife, Paige, has delighted fans with a touching family update. Pete first appeared on Channel 4’s hit programme in 2017 during series 10, alongside his sister Sophie, and quickly became a fan favourite. The duo, who live in Blackpool, are well known for their sharp wit, hilarious commentary, and memorable quips, keeping audiences laughing with their reactions to television highlights.
Away from the screen, Pete leads a happy family life with his wife Paige, who works as an emergency services call handler. The couple tied the knot in 2021 and have since welcomed two children: their son Jimmy and daughter Eva.
This week, Paige shared a heartwarming Instagram post featuring professional family photographs, showing Pete and Paige posing alongside their children on the seaside. In her caption, she wrote: “Capturing memories with my lovely family. If only it was like this all the time. Thank you for taking the sweetest photos @rebeccaclarephotography.”
Fans were quick to respond, praising the pictures and the family. Comments included: “Beautiful pictures, beautiful family,” “Lovely photos, they’re both getting so big now!” and “So beautiful [crying emoji].” Pete also joined in, adding a playful remark: “Life’s a beach and then you marry one so I heard.”
Pete and Paige’s journey as a family began in 2021 when they married and welcomed their first child, Jimmy, later that year. In December 2022, Pete revealed during a Gogglebox episode that the couple were expecting their second child, who was born in June 2023. Pete then introduced their daughter Eva to viewers on the show, holding her tenderly and sharing her full name with his sister Sophie: “Sophie, did I tell you Eva’s full name? She’s going to be Eva Sylvie Sandiford.” A delighted Sophie responded, “I love it!”
Over the years, fans have not only enjoyed Pete’s humour on Gogglebox but have also followed his family life with Paige, celebrating milestones and cherishing moments like these seaside photos. The latest update highlights the warmth and closeness of their family, giving fans a glimpse of the quieter, personal side of the television star beyond his on-screen antics.
