Gogglebox legend looks worlds away from the sofa after shaving head and dying it pink as he holidays in Benidorm
He split from his husband last year before another failed TV romance new look Gogglebox legend looks worlds away from the sofa after shaving head and dying it pink as he holidays in Benidorm Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A GOGGLEBOX legend looked worlds away from the sofa after showing off his drastic new hairstyle. The Channel 4 star left fans open-mouthed when he revealed his brand new look during a holiday in Benidorm. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Stephen Webb looked totally different to his Gogglebox days with a shaved head on holiday Credit: instagram/@stephengwebb1971 5 He could be seen with pals in Benidorm showing off his new look Credit: instagram/@stephengwebb1971 5 It is totally different to his hair on Gogglebox (pictured with ex, Daniel Lustig) Credit: Channel 4 Holidaying with pals, Stephen Webb showed off his newly shaved hair as he ditched his long locks that fans are so used to seeing on him. Taking his look to an even bigger extreme, Stephen has now dyed his newly shaved hair pink. Creating an unmissable look, Stephen was surrounded by all of his friends as he lounged in the sunshine and by the swimming pool with his pals. In another selfie, Stephen could be seen covering up his new hair with a cap as he added the caption: "Right Benidorm! Let's go!" It is a total transformation from his days on the sofa when he appeared alongside his husband, Daniel Lustig. Stephen and Daniel were married for a total of six years before splitting early last year. The couple had recently quit Gogglebox before news of their split was revealed. Stephen went on to sign up for Celebs Go Dating in the hope of moving on from his six-year marriage. After a number of dates that didn't go so well he met David, from Guernsey, and the pair hit it off. In the last episode of Celebs Go Dating he gushed to the experts: "I think there's something special here. Gogglebox star reveals horrifying health diagnosis after losing vision while driving "It has been phenomenal. I've loved every minute of it. "I didn't think, for a moment, that I was going to be finishing this journey with a hottie on my arm, celebrating with all the other celebs. I am over the moon." After the series ended they made a go of things, with Stephen travelling from his hometown in Brighton to spend time with David in Guernsey. Then, shortly after, Stephen learned David had been seeing other men while they were dating and he was on a dating app. Sources told The Sun, Stephen was shocked and confronted David straight away. Afterwards, a source told us: "It's definitely over, there's no going back. "Stephen is not interested and he wasn't a fan of the distance anyway." Gogglebox stars Stephen and Daniel's relationship timeline Hairdressing duo Stephen Webb and Daniel Lustig got engaged back in 2016 and married two years later. The couple co-own a hair salon and live in a £575,000 property on Brighton's sought after seafront. At the time of the engagement, Stephen appeared on Gogglebox alongside his ex-boyfriend Chris Ashby-Steed. In 2019, Daniel made his Gogglebox debut and was immediately a big hit. Chris, who is now in a happy relationship with husband Tony, spoke publicly about how the show affected his mental health. Having relocated to Wales and quit showbiz, Chris said he was racked with anxiety during his time on the programme. Just last year Daniel and Stephen shocked Gogglebox fans when they announced they were leaving the programme. Daniel had been part of the show since its launch in 2013. Their departure opened up a new world of opportunity for the duo and it was soon announced that Stephen would take part in Dancing on Ice. But disaster struck and injury ruled him out before the live shows. There were further gasps of shock in April when we revealed the pair had split up. They vowed to remain friends and looked to be true to their word, sharing a smiley picture the following day with Stephen's mum on the seafront. 5 He told his fans that he was in Benidorm Credit: instagram/@stephengwebb1971
