Sibling duo Pete and Sophie Sandiford are without a doubt one of Gogglebox's most popular pairings. The brother and sister from Blackpool often have us giggling away with their quick wit and cracking banter. But how much do you know about their lives away from the Channel 4 show?
From their other siblings to their famous great uncle and partners, here's all you need to know…
Pete and Sophie's siblings and family
While they've never appeared on the show, Pete and Sophie have two other siblings: another brother, Harry, and sister, Lucy.

Sharing various photos of Lucy, the Gogglebox star penned: "Happy 21st birthday to my little sister. So proud of the lovely, funny and beautiful person you are! Don't ever change girly!
"Can't wait for a little birthday beverage later. Love you forever world." How sweet!
Like Harry and Lucy, Sophie and Pete's parents, Julie and Paul, are rarely referenced on the show. However, Sophie has previously posted photos with her mum on social media – and they look so alike! See the photo below.

Pete and Sophie aren't the only famous faces in their family as they're related to Barry Elliott and Paul Elliott of The Chuckle Brothers.
Following Barry's death in 2018, Pete shared a throwback snap of himself with his 'uncle', writing: "We are lucky enough to call him Uncle Barry."
Then in 2019, Paul shared a selfie with Pete, Sophie and their sister Lucy. He wrote in the caption: "Look who we had a very nice lunch with @pinklarkholme #ProudUncle."

Pete and Sophie's partners and home lives
When he's not busy filming Gogglebox, Pete can be found at home with his wife Paige and their two adorable children, Jimmy, two, and ten-month-old baby girl Eva.

Sophie previously revealed that her house was initially Pete's before she bought it from him. The TV star told The Metro in 2020: "We live in the same house. Pete bought the house and did it up. I sneakily just pitched up with my stuff one day and said, 'I'm not going home'. That's how I moved in.
"Then I bought the house off Pete. So now we still live together but instead of me living with Pete, Pete lives with me."
Like her brother, Sophie is also in a happy relationship with her boyfriend Ben McKeown. The couple first went public with their romance in April 2022 when the florist shared a snap of the pair attending a wedding with Pete and Paige.
