Gogglebox star reveals exciting life update as he shares new girlfriend after heartbreaking split
Former Gogglebox star Tom Malone Jr has gone public with his new girlfriend Jahmiah Simpson in a heartwarming TikTok video shared on Sunday.
The 31-year-old TV personality introduced his new partner to followers, 22 months after splitting from his previous girlfriend, model Bryony Briscoe.
The revelation came through a sweet clip posted on the social media platform, where the couple shared an affectionate moment together.
The announcement marks Malone’s first public relationship since his break-up with Briscoe, which was confirmed in January 2023.
In the TikTok clip, Malone responded to a follower’s question about his new partner, captioning the video: “This week, a hot new bombshell enters the villa.”
The footage shows Jahmiah, wearing a grey cardigan and black joggers, jumping into Tom’s arms and wrapping her legs around his waist for a warm embrace.
The romantic reveal came after a fan had commented on a previous video of the couple, asking: “How many chapters did I miss? Who is this lady?”
Tom, sporting a bleached buzz cut in the clip, has yet to share additional details about their relationship.
Prior to his new relationship, Malone had dated PrettyLittleThing model Briscoe, with the couple living together in Leeds after getting together in 2020.
Their split became public in January 2023 when Briscoe confirmed the break-up following Malone unfollowing her on Instagram.

Briscoe later wrote on social media that she was “in a committed relationship with herself,” while Malone posted about “leaving any baggage in 2022.”
Following the split, Malone was briefly linked to YouTuber Saffron Barker after they attended a New Year’s Eve party in matching Grease costumes.
At the time, her spokesman confirmed they were just friends.
Fans were quick to express their joy over Malone’s new relationship, flooding the comments with supportive messages.
“Glad you’re happy again, she’s stunning beautiful couple xxx,” wrote one follower.
Another fan commented: “Ohh I’m so happy for you!!! She is so beautiful!”
