New Celebrity Gogglebox star is the nepo brother of one of ITV's biggest stars but can you guess who it is?

A new Celebrity Gogglebox star is a nepo brother of one of ITV 's biggest stars, and him and his sister are due to make their debut on the show on Friday. The 28-year-old is a professional model represented by D1LON modelling agency and has started to make a name for himself in the world of fashion. He has modelled for some big name brands like Portuguese Soul, Etro Fashion Week and Celine. He graced UK screens alongside his very famous sister who has been on a mission to help bikini-clad singletons find a new partner. Omar and his famed sister were born and raised in Bristol, with their mother Sadie of Swedish descent while her father Hussein is of Somali descent. But do you know who it is? That's right, it is Maya Jama's younger brother, Omar. The siblings rarely appear together on social media and have remained close through Maya's rise to superstardom and her globetrotting lifestyle. And now they have appeared on the Channel 4 flagship as fun duo for the celebrity spin off. Sitting beside her brother Omar, Love Island host Maya, 30, said: 'Hi everyone. It's Maya and my brother Omar. 'We are so excited to be on Gogglebox this Friday 9pm. Make sure you tune in and hear us chatting absolute rubbish.' Omar added: 'Yeah, we'll be there, will you? Commenting on their similarities, one person wrote: 'Male version I swear. Trippy.' The star-studded spin-off from the original programme, which launched in 2013, sees the cast of UK notables react to the week's biggest telly moments from their sofas. For the latest series, darts legend Luke Littler has also joined the programme, along with his friend, the YouTuber known as Angry Ginge. Meanwhile, beloved celebrity pairings returning for the current series include radio presenter Nick Grimshaw and his niece Liv, as well as the Happy Mondays' Shaun Ryder and Bez. It comes after returning cast member, presenter Rylan Clark, revealed editors of Celebrity Gogglebox had to cut some 'career-ending' conversations from his appearances on the show with his mum, Linda. The star, aged 36, first rose to fame during his 2012 participation on The X Factor. He has since continued to fly while hosting shows including Big Brother's Bit on the Side, Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, This Morning and more recently, Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour, with Judge Robert Rinder. Fans of Celebrity Gogglebox have enjoyed seeing a more unfiltered side of Rylan on the programme, including plenty of wise cracks at his mum's expense. The pair quickly became a fan favourite due to their zingy banter and no-holds-barred commentary. But appearing on This Morning last week, the pair admitted there are plenty of sofa conversations that do not make it to air. Conversations between them can push the boundaries the mother-son duo often have to implore editors to make cuts. 'When he mucks about', Linda explained: 'I go, 'Please don't put that bit in!'' 'We're lucky the editors clearly like us', Rylan added: 'Because the stuff they've had to cut out is career-ending… We're like, 'Yeah, can we not use that please?!'' Rylan, and Linda, 72, have featured on the celebrity edition of the Channel 4 hit since it started back in 2019. Many fans have come to adore them, calling for them to have their own spin-off show. Celebrity Gogglebox is available to watch and stream on Channel 4.
