Gogglebox star Tom Malone Jr 'confirms split' from girlfriend by unfollowing her

Gogglebox's Tom Malone Jr has unfollowed his model girlfriend Bryony on Instagram after two years of dating.

The star, 29, rose to fame on the Channel 4 series in 2014 and later began dating Bryony Briscoe in 2020, with the couple living in Leeds.

She has modelled for many brands including PrettyLittleThing and Pink Boutique.

Tom and Bryony haven't spoken out about the split but the former Gogglebox star has unfollowed her on social media.

Both have also deleted any old photo traces of the two together from their grid.

The reports of their split come after rumours swirled that he and Strictly Come Dancing star Saffron Barker started dating.

They shared photos of them wearing matching costumes for a New Year's Eve party.

The duo both took part in The Real Dirty Dancing, which aired on E4 last year and were understood to have both attended a gathering in Brighton earlier this month.

Guests donned costumes for the occasion, with the pair dressed up like characters from Grease - resembling the film leads Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsson.

Former Gogglebox star Tom shared photos of them on Instagram, which showed him and Saffron wearing matching jackets featuring the T Birds' logo with their arms wrapped around each other.

He wrote: "Just a couple T Birds and a Karate Kid. New Years was a madness".

Saffron responded to Tom's upload with a hand-over-mouth emoji before sharing the snaps on her own page.

Fans immediately took to the comment section to question his relationship status.

One person responded to his post: "No more Bryony then?" Another wrote: "New girlfriend Tom....". A third wrote about the dancer and Saffron: "Are these two an item?"

Some were even hoping that Saffron and Tom became an item.

Meanwhile, Tom previously opened up about his plans to marry Bryony.

"I’ve always been like very strict on the fact that I wouldn’t get into a relationship if I didn’t think that potential was there," he told The Sun.

"Unless I can see myself getting married to the person, I wouldn’t get into a relationship because I wouldn’t waste my time or the other person's time.

"The fact that I am in a relationship with her means yes.”

Mirror has contacted Tom and Bryony's representative for comment
