"Ello lovelies, the Baggs aren't on Gogglebox this week as we've had such a chaotic & busy couple of weeks we haven't managed to film," they shared to both their Instagrams alongside a photo of themselves. "It's always an amazing show though and we can't wait to watch along with you!"

The TV star has been missing from the show for the last few weeks to care for Nat, who was rushed to hospital after being hit by a car during a night out in Leeds. Nat was placed on a life support machine and sustained several severe injuries, including a broken back, a broken neck, and two collapsed lungs.
However, on Friday, Ellie looked like her normal self again as she settled on the sofa with her sister Izzi – and Nat even made a brief cameo, with Ellie calling him on the phone at the start of the episode.
