Gogglebox's Daniel Lustig-Webb sets record straight on unusual dynamic with ex Stephen
EXCLUSIVE: Former Gogglebox star Daniel Lustig-Webb is looking for love again after splitting from his co-star Stephen.
Former Gogglebox stars and couple Daniel and Stephen Lustig-Webb have recently surprised fans as they posed together for a happy snap, despite splitting up and announcing their divorce in April. Fans of the Channel 4 show have often speculated that the lovers-turned-friends have reunited as they have been spotted shopping with their dogs together and most recently attending a wedding together.
But now, Daniel has set the record straight as he explained why he is sometimes apprehensive about sharing his ongoing friendship with Stephen. In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, he said: "Whenever we put pictures online, sometimes I'm bit dubious posting pictures together, because all of a sudden you just get all these messages.
"Some are really positive but there’s lots of like ‘are you back together? Get back together’. And I’m like ‘oh God!’”
While Daniel and Stephen have remained friends, Daniel revealed that there is one thing about their new relationship dynamic that "shocked" him. He admitted that Stephen had an unusual proposal for him, leaving him feeling very taken aback.
He said: "Obviously he met people on Celebs Go Dating, and he was like, ‘Oh, what about if something worked out, we could go out for dinner.’ And that's like… I was a bit shocked."

Daniel continued: "So I was like if you met someone and it was working for you guys, if it was a serious relationship and it worked, then yes, I would definitely."
He explained that the situation was not too alien to him as he had done it before with another serious partner that he had before Stephen, who he also remained friends with and welcomed the new partner into their circle too.
The former Channel 4 star said: "We all become really good friends. We're still friends, they were at my wedding. As long as you mend this relationship, and you can find your positive light in your own life, then it's great. But yeah, I am an eternal positive person!"
While Daniel has watched on as Stephen has been on dates while appearing on Channel 4's Celebs Go Dating, he admitted that he is on the lookout for love himself.

He said: "I think it'd be nice to start to meet someone again. I have put myself on some dating apps and I have been on a few dates so it’s interesting.
"The best thing about being married, well one of the best things, I always said to my friend ‘at least I’ll never have to go on another date again’."
However, he said that he daren't mutter those words ever again as he feels like it has "cursed" his love life. Daniel said: "If you do get with someone, never say those words, because I said that three times three in three different relationships, and my relationship ended every time!
"I will never ever say it again! There’s something in it, but I don’t know what it is."
