Former Gogglebox star Josh Tapper has tied the knot with his long-time love, Hannah, after nine years together. The 27 year old, known for his time with his family on the hit Channel 4 show, left our screens in 2017 to pursue a career in politics. His sister, Amy Tapper, took to social media to celebrate the occasion, posting an array of snaps and clips from the day, captioned: “The New Mr and Mrs Tapper! No words to describe this incredible day from start to finish..” She gushed further: “I’d say welcome to the family @hannahtapper_ but you’ve been a part of it for 9 years now… this just means officially forever. I love you both more than words will ever describe @joshtapper.”

The wedding album featured Josh and Hannah beaming next to his parents, Jonathan and Nikki, and showcased them enjoying the traditional horah dance. Fans will remember Josh from the inception of Gogglebox in 2013, though he bid farewell to the sofa in 2017 to pursue his career. Reflecting on Josh’s departure at the time, a source told The Mirror: “Channel 4 will, of course, keep the door open for him but it’s a really exciting opportunity for him. It’s a much-coveted job,” reports the Mirror.

In 2022, Josh took a new step into the political arena, announcing he was running to become a Labour MP. He was selected as the candidate for Hertsmere and took to social media to share the news, writing on X, formerly known as Twitter: “I’m thrilled and honoured to have been selected as Labour’s parliamentary candidate for Hertsmere. Thank you so much to local members for your support – I won’t let you down. The work to unseat the Deputy Prime Minister starts now!” Josh first graced our screens at the tender age of 15 on a reality TV show. Speaking to Jewish News in 2022, he reflected on the sudden fame: “I spent the next five years living that life while also trying to live a normal life. But I was the guy who was on TV. My days were long as we were filming the scenes in addition to school.”
