Gogglebox legends Marcus and Mica quit show just weeks after family tragedy | The Sun
GOGGLEBOX icons Marcus and Mica suffered a family tragedy just two months before announcing their exit from the show.
The popular pairing, who have let cameras into their homes for the past five years, shocked fans today when they announced they will no longer appear on the Channel 4 show.
They shared a brief statement on Instagram that read: "We've had so much fun with you all tuning in at home & the hard-working Gogglebox crews but it's time to put down the remote and see what God has in store for us."
Back in October, Mica thanked fans for their support after a death in the family.
She said in an emotional post: "To everyone that has sent love, prayers, concern, well wishes and condolences to our family, on behalf of Marky & I we thank you.
"I Hope you all have a blessed Day and remember to enjoy each other, blow the dust off them board games, catch some joke, life and memories are so precious."
