Fans of Gogglebox have been left shocked as Julie Malone revealed her "secret" son, who has never appeared on the much-loved Channel 4 series.
The TV personality regular posts to Instagram while taking walks. In a recent post she shared that she had to take a "couple of weeks off" from walking due to illness, but explained she's now feeling better.
She added: "Back to the 10,000 steps. Thanks for the encouragement."
Julie then said that she had recently travelled to Ireland for a wedding. Following this she then dropped a bombshell on fans.

Posting to her 211k followers, she said: "Our own, our eldest son Lee's wedding, is in a couple of weeks."
Yes, she has another son - one we have not seen on screen.
The Malone family joined the Channel 4 series during its fourth series in 2014, and have since become fan favourites.
Julie, her husband Tom Senior and their two sons Tom Junior and Shaun were regular cast members until Tom Junior quit the show last year, the other three still remain as part of the cast.
Many fans were unaware that alongside Tom Junior and Shaun, Julie and Tom have two older children too - Lee and Vanessa.
Daughter Vanessa has previously appeared on the show with her brother and parents. As have her children Saoirse, Brogan and Harley.
However, their son Lee appears to like keeping himself out of the limelight and has not appeared on the show.
Posting to Instagram last year Lee shared a photo of himself kissing his partner Sarah outside Sale Town Hall in Manchester.
He captioned the post: "It’s official, The Malones."
The happy couple appear to have been together a number of years.
Lee and Sarah announced that they were expecting their first child in April 2021, welcoming their first son Grayson into the world in November last year.
