Since the couple shared their baby joy, Gogglebox fans have speculated whether we will see the new addition to the Sandiford family on the sofa with Pete and his sister Sophie.
Viewers of the show didn't have to wait too long for an answer as season 18 opened with the heart-warming scene of Pete cradling his new baby son.
The sweet moment was loved by Gogglebox fans although it wasn't long before Pete's signature brand of humour was on show when he suggested his child might have had an accident.
And fans of the show took to Twitter to say how they were wowed by the opening to the new series.
One user said: "Oh Pete mate! What a great start to a new #Gogglebox series. Your boy is a smasher mate Congratulations lad"
Another added: "Omg Pete and his baby my heart!!!"
