On Instagram she wrote: “We are going to miss doing #gogglebox so so much but can’t wait to watch the new series (good luck my fellow goggleboxers you will smash it love the Moffatts).”
The 26-year-old also responded to a fan and said: “We are gutted too, thought my Mam and dad (and little Ava) would still be able to do it but we will still be watching. [sic]”
According to the Sunday People, her parents Betty and Mark have been dropped by producers as the show “wouldn’t work so well without all three of them.”
A TV insider said: “The whole premise of Gogglebox is normal people commenting on the TV. Scarlett is now a celebrity in her own right so it made sense she wouldn’t continue.
“She and her parents came as a package. It wouldn’t work so well without all three of them.”
We think it would work fine!
A spokesperson for Gogglebox, which is back on our telly’s next week confirmed: “The Moffatt family will not be appearing in this series.”
Such a shame!
This news comes after Scarlett is about to start a new job on Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway. Oh how far she’s come.
