The nation’s hearts were well and truly broken in December 2017 when Gogglebox fave and all-round legend Leon Benicoff passed away aged 83.
His wife June later hint she would be stepping away from the show, replying to a fan asking whether she’d continue on Twitter with, 'It was a great adventure with a great finale with the NTA😊'.
But despite a rumour she’d be making a return to the show in 2018, Gogglebox just hasn’t been the same without Leon’s tireless wit and cheeky banter with his wife.
Now, the June and Leon-shaped hole in our heart’s been filled as June’s revealed she’s writing a book all about their life together.
Blink Publishing has reportedly confirmed that June is writing a memoir called Leon and June: Our Story, which is due to be published in September 2018.
"Leon often said he'd like to write our story. So now I can do it for him," June said according to the BBC.
The memoir will apparently, “look at 60 years together and is a celebration of Leon’s life and their love for one another.”

Leon and June first appeared on our screens back in 2013 for series one of Gogglebox. Their story quickly tugged at the nation’s heartstrings as it was revealed they’d first met at teacher training college in 1955.
"Leon and June have spent so much time in our living rooms and us in theirs that they feel like an extended part of the family,” Kelly Ellis, Editorial Director for Blink Publishing revealed.
"Their gentle ribbing of each other on Gogglebox and Leon's cheeky jokes were always the perfect tonic on a Friday evening."
