According to reports, there may be some tension between former Gogglebox co-stars Stephen Webb and Joe Baggs. It seems that Joe, who appeared on the show with his family for several seasons, believed that he and Stephen were quite close. However, things seem to have changed since then. Joe now hosts a popular podcast, Not My Bagg, where he has had the pleasure of interviewing celebrities like Rylan Clarke, Pete Wicks, and Katie Price.
Unfortunately, it seems that Stephen won't be making an appearance on the podcast anytime soon. Joe recently shared that he had invited Stephen to be a guest on the show, but was turned down without any explanation. Joe expressed his disappointment, stating, "There are some cast members where, like we thought we were close to it. And then I've asked them to come on our podcast afterwards, and they've declined, and I've been a bit like, 'Oh, so whatever.'"
When asked about who had declined the invitation, Joe revealed that it was Stephen. It appears that Stephen's management had declined the offer, leaving Joe feeling confused and a little hurt. Stephen, who joined the cast of Celebs Go Dating earlier this year, has previously discussed his life after Gogglebox on other podcasts. Joe further explained, "It's a strange one [because] you feel like once you're in the bubble and in the community, you're really close to people and then afterwards you're like, 'Oh, OK, maybe not so.'"
Stephen left the show in 2023 to join the cast of Dancing on Ice, but had to withdraw due to a broken ankle. Shortly after his departure from Gogglebox, Stephen and his husband of six years, Daniel Lustig, split. However, the two remain on good terms and continue to live together as best friends. In an interview on the Dirty Laundry podcast, Stephen shared, "We get on so well. We've gotten on better now than we did when we were together." Daniel added, "You really get to know someone and yourself, and it was really good for a really long time, and then it kind of petered off, and then we kind of decided the best thing was to end as friends. We're work colleagues, and partners at work as well, and the basis of our relationship has always been friendship as well."
