Remember Gogglebox’s Jay Makin? Here’s what the silent telly watcher is up to now

The TV personality has ditched the spotlight for a bar job

GOGGLEBOX legend Silent Jay appeared on the popular Channel 4 show with the Woerdenweber family from 2013 to 2014.

But after the quiet character broke up with Liverpool-based Eve in March, 2015, he disappeared from our telly screens.

Even though Jay Makin was notoriously not very talkative on Gogglebox, he opened up to The Sun following the tough split.

The Birkenhead-based TV star said: “I’m gutted that Eve broke up with me. It came completely out of the blue.

“We had a few problems and started drifting apart but I thought it was down to the pressure of the show and her business. We argued too much and she said couldn’t cope with it.

“Eve said she still wants to be friends but hasn’t spoken to me and has deleted me on Facebook. It really hurts, we were so close.”

After finishing filming for the series, Jay quit the Gogglebox cast.
