“ITV were delighted”

Apparently the brothers will next investigate their family connections in South America and the Caribbean.

A source told The Sun: “ITV were delighted with the success of the first series so are now planning another once lockdown is eased.

“The idea is to send the lads around South America, taking in the Caribbean, after it was revealed in the first part that they have family ties there.

“ITV think the lads could be the new Judith Chalmers because audiences have fallen in love with their cheeky banter, natural style and infectious personalities.”

As for new mum Lucy, she has been regularly sharing updates on motherhood.

She even shared that she was finding parenting difficult during lockdown.

Lucy wrote: “I adore my son, every time I look at him I can’t believe I made this perfect baby boy and when he smiles and laughs my heart bursts with love.

“BUT I’ve really struggled now for three months, maybe heightened by lockdown.”
