Gogglebox’s Sophie Sandiford shares 'exciting' personal update

A Gogglebox star has launched a new business.

Sophie Sandiford used to work as a window dresser for Debenhams but, back in 2020, she lost her job after the department store fell into administration.

But early last year, she announced her new career venture and explained she was training to become a florist, reports the Echo.

At the time of her job loss, Sophie posted a picture on social media of herself and colleagues in their uniforms.

She captioned the photo: "We might be going but we are going with a smile #debenhams."

Seven months after her announcement she was learning to become a florist, Sophie revealed on Gogglebox that she'd passed her floristry exams.

And now it appears Sophie is starting her own floristry business.

Posting a picture on Instagram stories, Sophie shared a picture of 'Petali Floristry' with the caption 'coming soon'.
