Gogglebox critic Giles Wood 's lucrative secret side hustle has been revealed.
The Channel 4 star, who appears on the show alongside his wife Mary Killen, has left fans stunned by his talents as an oil painter, with his work being sold for £250 a piece.
One fan remarked, below his portrait of a historic home: "I had no idea you were an artist. Your work is stunning."
His work includes detailed busy interiors, elegant homes and landscapes.
Another fan picked up the pairs nickname for each other, posting: "Beautiful work Nutty!"
And while Giles is busy putting his creativity to work, Mary has taken on handling his website and commissions.
Summing up his work on his website, Giles said: “I like the contemplative aspect — sitting for several days in a room, watching the light change.
"There are as many changes as with a landscape. I always work in oils as they give more depth. The finished painting should offer an insight into the painter as well as the subject."
Dad Giles impressed viewers of the Channel 4 series by showing off his portrait of wife Mary as they sat watching TV together.
The star also joked about his retirement as he and Mary watched a documentary on the coronavirus pandemic.
"Just as I'm starting to enjoy my retirement," Giles quipped as they watched news about escalating virus cases.
Mary shot back: "What retirement? You haven't worked first.
"You retired at 21, so now you can start working – do it in reverse."
The pair - who famously appear on the show from their sprawling cottage in Wiltshire - met when Giles was studying at Wimbledon Art School.
Mary also has a job away from Gogglebox, and is a longstanding journalist contributing to politics mag The Spectator.
She has also had a book published on etiquette titled, How the Queen Can Make You Happy.
She has even written about her experience on the show describing the fee they get for doing it as "tiny".
However, an insider previously told The Sun that each family get a monthly allowance of £1,500 between them.
