Gogglebox favourite Izzi Warner has posted a heartfelt message to her son as he celebrates turning 11. The Channel 4 star features on the hit show with her sister Ellie , and the pair have been part of the programme alongside the likes of Pete Sandiford and Jenny Newman since 2015. Off camera, Izzi is mum to Bobby and Bessie , whom she shares with former partner Grant. She previously disclosed that she had been "single for 18 months" before recently sharing glimpses of her new relationship online. On Wednesday night, Izzi posted several photographs of Bobby to commemorate his birthday, reports the Mirror . Most showed him beaming at the camera, whilst the final image - which gained widespread attention last year - featured Bobby impersonating Claudia Winkleman from The Traitors, dressed in a cape with a fringe, eyeliner and fake tan. She wrote: "I have no idea how this has happened but I have an 11 year old!! "Bobby, you are the best son I could ever wish for. Keep being your amazing, funny, self who we all love to bits. Happy 11th birthday. "Obvs Claudia had to make the photo cut- question is how will we top it next WBD?" The Gogglebox family rallied around Bobby to wish him a happy birthday, including Pete, who wrote: "Happy birthday Bobby! Have a gooden mate." Several fans echoed his comment, while one wrote: "@claudiawinkle was insane, was only showing my husband it the other day. When he looked at it it was like GLASSES OFF just like the scene in Jurassic Park when they take their glasses off in awe." "Such an amazing Claudia likeness," another wrote, while someone else said: "Also that Claudia costume! Omgggg." This comes after Izzi gave fans an update on her private life when she introduced her new partner Toby, posting snaps of them on holiday together and at special events. In April, she shared an update on her relationship, writing: "The sun shone at Sandhurst on the Sovereigns parade. Congratulations to all the officer cadets commissioning today, in particular 16 platoon. Thank you for all who took part in what was spectacular parade. Proud of you @tobyj1 ." She was flooded with support from fans, as one person wrote: "You look lovely and how smart he looks in his uniform. You must be very proud of him." Another shared: "Wonderful day for them all...congratulations." Meanwhile on Valentine's day, she let slip to sister Ellie during an episode of Gogglebox: "Wait till you see what Toby got me for Valentine's – a card in a box." Ellie read out the card, saying: "'To Izzi, our first of many. Thank you for being the absolute best. I bloody adore you. Happy Valentine's Day I love you loads and lots more. Toby." Gogglebox airs Fridays at 9pm on Channel 4.
