Gogglebox Star Jenny Newby’s Arthritis Disclosure and 2022 Hospital Stay Revisited in New Reports

The latest articles present a retrospective on her earlier diagnosis and recovery rather than any new health development.

Overview

  • Jenny Newby has featured on Channel 4’s Gogglebox since 2014 alongside longtime friend Lee Riley from Hull.
  • In 2018 she publicly said she has arthritis in a Versus Arthritis advert, describing how the condition affects everyday tasks like fastening a coat or opening tins.
  • Co-star Lee Riley said in 2022 that Newby had a hospital procedure described as minor and scheduled during BAFTA week.
  • He added that she would watch the BAFTA Awards from her hospital bed, stressing that she was recovering well.
  • About a month later Newby appeared on the pair’s Instagram to confirm she was out of hospital, thanked fans for their messages, and said she was on the mend.
