Sophie had asked her brother: ‘Do you feel any different now that you’ve got engaged?’
‘Yeah, I think… I feel like an even bigger responsibility. I don’t know why. I’m going to have a wife’ enthused Pete.
‘Yes, you’re going to have a wife,’ repeated Sophie.
Despite the nonchalaunt nature of Pete’s announcement, Gogglebox fans took to Twitter in their droves to delight over his happy news.

It comes after cruel trolls attacked Pete last October, after he innocently shared a selfie with his stunning girlfriend.
The Gogglebox star, who tends to keep his private life out of the spotlight, proudly shared the couples’ snap of himself with his long-term love.
‘My Mrs and best mate what more could I ask for!’ he wrote, before reassuring his sister: ‘Don’t worry @sophiesandiford1 you are a close second best friend!’
He added of the snap: ‘This was taken last year FYI [sic].’
Generally, fans penned pleasant remarks underneath the snap, but trolls claimed the reality star was ‘punching above his weight’ and that Sophie was ‘out of his league’.
Pete has been a firm-favourite on Gogglebox since he first appeared in 2018 alongside sister Sophie.

Pete remarked in the past that he was ‘gobsmacked’ he was ever even cast on Gogglebox.
‘We’re still gobsmacked that we’re on the show. A woman came up to me saying me and Soph were ace – when people take the time to do that, it means a lot,’ he once told The Sun.
Pete works in insurance as his day job while his sister is a shop window dresser.
Gogglebox airs Fridays at 9PM on Channel 4.
