Lee, from Hull, appears on Gogglebox alongside his good pal Jenny Newby.

They’re two of the biggest stars of the show, having featured on the lineup since 2014.

Last month, Jenny stunned Gogglebox viewers and royal fans alike with a gobsmacking prediction about Meghan Markle’s baby.

In the episode aired on May 10, Jenny appeared to get Archie’s name in one guess during a conversation with Lee.

Though it aired after the tot’s name was announced, the episode was actually recorded before they revealed the name.

They were watching a news report about the birth when Jenny told her sceptical pal she thought the Sussexs’ first child might be called Archie.

Reacting to shocked viewers on Twitter, Gogglebox creator Tania Alexander confirmed that Jenny had indeed taken her guess ahead of time.

She tweeted: “I would like to confirm that our Jenny did genuinely guess the name Archie before it was announced.”
