Gogglebox Malone stars left 'heartbroken' after death of beloved family member The Malone family announced the death of a beloved member of their family on Saturday Gogglebox: Jenny wishes herself a Happy Birthday The Malone family were devastated as they announced a beloved member of their household has died. The fan-favourite family, made up of mum Julie, dad Tom, and sons Tom Jr, and Shaun, have been a staple on Gogglebox since 2014. In a heartbreaking new update on Saturday (June 7), the family revealed that one of their dogs, Bob, had passed away. On Instagram, Julie posted a series of photographs of Bob over the years, alongside the caption: "Today we said goodbye to our beautiful protective Bobby, he spent his last day doing what he loved, watching over the grandchildren playing in the garden. We are heartbroken. RIP our beautiful Big Bob." Tom Jr, who left the Channel 4 show back in 2021, paid homage to Bob, saying: "Good boy Bob... Rest easy big man," reports the Express. The Malone family joined Gogglebox back in 2014 (Image: Channel 4 ) Article continues below Shaun also expressed his grief, stating: "Today is the day we had to say goodbye to big bob, absolute great dog like a big cuddly bear." Their loss was met with an outpouring of support from fellow Gogglebox stars and fans alike. Gogglebox's Ellie Warner offered her sympathies, commenting: "So sorry to hear about Bobby. Run free over the rainbow bridge," while her sister Izzy said: "Sending you all lots of love." A fan added: "I'm so sorry. It never gets easier. It's so hard losing all the most beautiful little souls. They are children. You'll meet again at the rainbow bridge." A fourth person similarly shared: "So sorry to hear of Bobby's passing. Sending lots of love and hugs." The family's dog Bob has passed away (Image: Instagram/TheMalones ) The family is no stranger to such sorrow, having already had to say goodbye to their beloved Rottweiler, Dave, in 2023, who frequently appeared on Gogglebox. Back in February, Tom Sr also aroused worry from fans after he shared a picture of himself in a hospital gown and with his arm in a sling. The image featured the Channel 4 star propped up in bed, nursing what seemed to be a shoulder injury covered by a large bandage, while he glanced at the affected area. Article continues below Despite the worry caused, Tom kept his spirits high with a caption that read: "Woke up with a nappy as a dressing, was caught off guard when the nurse said she had to change my nappy! Grateful to our NHS, top notch care Thank you, home now!" Gogglebox airs Friday nights at 9pm on Channel 4
