Gogglebox stars Julie and Tom Malone congratulated by fans as they share huge news

She was also bursting with pride

Gogglebox favourites Tom Malone and Julie Malone have been congratulated by Instagram fans following a big achievement.

And on Saturday (June 25) evening, the much-loved couple confirmed Tom had managed it – and Julie was bursting with pride over Tom’s efforts.

Highlighting just how “proud” she is of Tom Sr, she lightheartedly but lovingly praised him as a “superhero”.

Tom was typically deadpan as he spoke, joking he’d swung “SAS-style” from the top of the 173 foot bell tower in Manchester’s Trafford Centre.

They went on to thank those who donated for the fundraising event for the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation. Supporters have currently pledged over £850.

The Malones thank supporters

“Thanks for your donations,” Julie said.

“Much appreciated,” agreed Tom.

“It means a lot. No matter how big or small your donation, it all adds up,” Julie continued.

Tom, clearly joking, cheekily took the mick out of his wife’s enthusiasm: “Julie’s just sobering up now.”

Julie also included an emotional caption on the post, sharing how family members have been affected by cancer.

Cancer affects everyone in some way, let’s try our best to help!

She wrote: “Thank you, thank you, thank you. Every penny helps.

“We lost a wonderful dad, dad-in-law and our children lost a phenomenal grandad to this horrible disease. Also Tom’s Aunty Kay, a brilliant lady.

“Cancer affects everyone in some way, let’s try our best to help! Thanks again.”
