Bobby Brazier may be the darling of BBC shows like EastEnders and Strictly Come Dancing but the rising star still lives with his dad Jeff Brazier.
The 20-year-old has lived with his dad, 44, since the death of his mother Jade Goody aged 27 from cervical cancer in 2009, along with his rarely-seen brother Freddie, 19.
But Jeff is making sure Bobby, who has reached the finals of Strictly Come Dancing, is not letting the fame go to his head, and even put up his rent due to his increasing success.
Speaking about his living arrangements, the Celebrity Gogglebox star previously told Metro.co.uk: ‘[Dad] has been cooking us lunch recently, in big portions.
‘But on the other side of that, he’s just upped my rent, so it’s sweet and sour. I think it’s a moral thing.’
The Brazier boys live in a beautiful mansion in Essex, where Jeff grew up, thought to be worth over £1million.
Jeff and Bobby have offered occasional glimpses into their home and interior design tastes on Instagram, and it’s very chic to say the least.
A keen cook, Jeff has often posted clips of himself whipping up a storm in his humongous kitchen, complete with an island.
The cabinets have been painted a tasteful green to add a pop of colour to the classic white room, while the countertops look as though they are marble – the real deal, no less.
Jeff seems to be a fan of the colour green as in another room he is seen perching on a mossy-coloured sofa, which perfectly compliments the kitchen.
Bobby, meanwhile, has shared pictures of himself posing in a long mirror in a room in neutral, beige tones, next to a wardrobe with rose-gold handles.
And if there wasn’t enough space in the house, there is also an outdoor room in the garden, which are often used as offices.
It might not be too long until Bobby flies the nest, though, as PR experts are predicting a bright future for the youngster and it’s said he could find himself at the centre of a £2.6million bidding war for acting roles.
A PR expert told The Sun: ‘Strictly will show the US how versatile he is and no doubt make him even more appealing, he could be the star of the next hit drama to come from across the pond.’
Carla Speight added that Bobby’s recent National Television Awards triumph – where he scooped the best newcomer gong – could see him competing with a Happy Valley star for one of the most lucrative kinds of contracts.
She went on: ‘He’s likely to find himself with a “golden handcuffs” style contract, after a short bidding war between the channels.
‘Sarah Lancashire reportedly earned £1.3million from her deal, making her the highest-paid TV actress in 2000.
‘Bobby will easily double that with the right channel and the right jobs.’
Bobby and his pro partner Dianne Buswell, 34, will be battling it out in the Strictly final on Saturday against Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola, as well as Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin.
Celebrity Gogglebox airs tonight on Channel 4 at 9pm.
