Wayne’s tumultuous year: “I had a heart attack”

One of Gogglebox's favourite couples has certainly had an eventful year.

Gogglebox favourite Wayne (pictured left) will presumably be glad to see the back of 2016 after what an eventful year, especially regarding his health.

Speaking to the Foxtel magazine, he said, “Oh my God. ‘Tumultuous’ is probably the best word for me. I’ve had a couple of personal health issues -I had whooping cough and a heart attack -and I was made redundant from my job. But when one door closes another window always opens.”

Foxtel: Oh that’s terrible Wayne! And how is your health now?
Wayne: “Everything is fine now. I rebounded really well and my surgeon said I must have been kissed o the arse by an angel! They managed to catch it quickly and put a stent in, and I was out of hospital basically the next day.”

Foxtel: You must have been terrified, Tom?
Tom: “Look it was a shock, but I can’t believe anything would have happened to him. I never panicked -I knew he was going to be alright.”

Looking forward to a healthy year of viewing ahead, Wayne!

  1. One thing I love about that show is that you get to see the reality of long-term relationships and how those couples treat each other. A good contrast to scripted drama with all those couples being overly nice to each other, or other reality shows with barely any older couples at all. Those two are a classic as are the other two older couples. Glad we’re not losing Wayne just yet!
