Steph Parker says the secret to her marriage to Dom is simply that they "enjoy each other\'s company".

The couple found fame on \'Gogglebox\' earning a legion of fans as they critiqued various television shows whilst always enjoying an alcoholic drink or two and they are back on Channel 4 in new programme \'The Great Hotel Escape\', in which they pass on their years of experience in the guest room business to novice hoteliers.

Although some couples may find it difficult to work and live together - they previously ran the Salutation Hotel in Kent with one another before selling it in 2016 - Steph, 52, insists she simply loves being around Dom, 53, all time.

In a joint interview with the Daily Express newspaper, she said: "We enjoy each other\'s company. People can see it is real and they can see we are having a really good time just with each other.

"For us TV is a bit like playing and we are doing it together. We have always said we will carry on doing stuff like this as long as we are having a bit of fun doing it and it is not becoming a job or chore. If it did, we would lose a bit of who we are ... It\'s not really work. I am not sitting there with a mountain of paper and having to log things into the computer."

And Dom feels exactly the same insisting it is never a chore to be with his wife.

He added: "We exist together, we do everything together and we love it."

However, one thing that did briefly effect their blissful life together is when Dom was filming scenes for the next series of \'Celebrity MasterChef\', on which he is a contestant along with the likes retired footballer Neil \'Razor\' Ruddock, \'EastEnders\' actor Adam Woodyatt and Motown legend Martha Reeves.

Steph admits she and their two children, Max, 18, and Honor, 15, had to be "guinea pigs" for his kitchen creations which became annoying.

She spilled: "We have been his guinea pigs for some time and I am delighted it has stopped filming."

Dom can\'t say how far he got but he enjoyed every moment of cooking for judges Gregg Wallace and John Torode on the BBC programme.

He said: "It is full-on and I thoroughly enjoyed it. John and Gregg are very kind in the studio whilst it is all going on. It is a great experience and I would highly recommend it."
