Channel 4 Gogglebox star shares moving wedding snaps after quitting the show for politics career
One of the original and best-known Gogglebox stars, Josh Tapper, has revealed he has married his girlfriend of nine years.
Tapper, 27, appeared on the Channel 4 favourite alongside his parents and sister Amy, who has also built up a separate social media following through her candid weight loss journey since leaving the show.
Tapper quit the series in 2017 after being among the original Gogglebox cast, appearing in the first episodes back in 2013.
He and the family decided to move on from the show after Tapper landed a prestigious job at the Cabinet Office.
News of the reality star’s wedding was made public by sister Amy, who shared a series of snaps and clips from the big day to her social media.
The 25-year-old wrote: “The New Mr and Mrs Tapper! No words to describe this incredible day from start to finish…
“I’d say welcome to the family @hannahtapper_ but you’ve been apart of it for 9 years now… this just means officially forever.
“I love you both more than words will ever describe @joshtapper.”

Photos showed Tapper and his new wife Hannah smiling and posing with their family members, including Tapper parents Jonathan and Nikki.
The celebrations also saw them taking part in the traditional Jewish dance, the hora.
At the time of Tapper’s exit from the show, a source told The Mirror: “Channel 4 will, of course, keep the door open for him [Tapper] but it’s a really exciting opportunity for him.
“It’s a much coveted job. Josh has already started having meetings within No.10.”
Last year, Tapper shared that he’d be running as a Labour MP after he was selected as the candidate for Hertsmere.
He told social media followers: “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!”
Tapper lost out to Conservative candidate Oliver Dowden, who had held the seat since 2019.
Amy’s recent social media posts have seen the former Gogglebox star flooded with support as she’s been sharing her weight loss journey.
She announced back in 2022 she’d be starting a major lifestyle change, with supportive fans cheering her on as she shares updates.
Taking to Instagram last month, Amy shared some before and after snaps, detailing the noticeable difference she’s achieved in her health journey.
She penned: “Officially 5 stone down and I couldn’t be happier. Never thought I’d be able to reach this milestone so I think I can say I’m proud of myself.”
