In a heartfelt Instagram post, Gogglebox star Roisin Kelly has hinted at her breakup with boyfriend Joe Kyle, mere months after the couple’s departure from the hit Channel 4 show. Roisin, who first appeared on the popular reality series in February 2022, posted a series of lighthearted photos, subtly implying that she is now newly single. The revelation comes just after the pair’s sudden exit from Gogglebox earlier this year.
On Monday, Roisin shared an upbeat post filled with personal snaps, aiming to show she’s keeping her chin up despite the change in her personal life. One of the photos shows Roisin holding an envelope labeled “an antidote for a broken heart” while flipping through the pages of the book Women Who Love Too Much, a lighthearted nod to her situation. Another image captured a bottle of wine and a packet of cigarettes, with the caption, “Well table for 1 it is then girls!”
Roisin, who often showcases her humorous and self-deprecating side, added the hashtag #brutallyaxedagain to the post, poking fun at her and Joe’s recent exit from the Gogglebox family, where they had been fan favorites until their unexpected removal from Season 26. Fans and followers flooded the comments section, offering support and love, with one user commenting, “If Gogglebox didn’t know your worth, what can be said about a BOY?”
Roisin’s post was met with an outpouring of kind messages from her friends and followers, with some fans even suggesting she should relocate to Toronto for a fresh start. “Icon. Hot. Lovely jubbly. No more losers!” one fan wrote, while others reassured her that the best chapter was yet to come.
Roisin’s exit from Gogglebox came as a surprise to many, with her and Joe explaining their departure via a heartfelt TikTok post in July 2025. At the time, Roisin expressed her gratitude for the opportunity, saying, “We couldn’t be more grateful to Studio Lambert for the opportunity, the experience has actually been so mad and we will miss watching TV with you all on Friday nights.” She also paid tribute to her fellow crew members, calling them “family,” before hinting that it was time for her and Joe to explore new opportunities outside the show.
In the same post, Roisin shut down rumors of any behind-the-scenes drama. “It wasn’t drama, just time for us to go. After three and a half years of sitting on the sofa, Channel 4 has decided it’s time for Joe and I to stretch our legs and have not asked us back for season 26,” she said.
Roisin’s Instagram update about her breakup with Joe has been one of several personal revelations in recent months. The star has also been vocal about her aspirations for new career ventures, including expressing a desire to appear on BBC’s Race Across The World. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see where Roisin’s journey will take her next, as she has quickly become a beloved figure in the British TV landscape.
While Roisin’s personal life has become a topic of public interest, she remains focused on moving forward. Whether exploring new reality TV opportunities or embracing a new chapter as a single woman, Roisin is determined to maintain her positive outlook. “It’s time to watch TV in silence for a bit and put down the popcorn,” she concluded in her TikTok post, signaling that she’s ready to take some time for herself.
As Roisin navigates this significant life change, her followers and friends continue to rally around her, supporting her every step of the way. One thing is for certain—this resilient star is ready to face whatever the future holds.
