Maya captioned the clip: "Me an my brother are on gogglebox tonight! Hoping they edited out most of the wild stuff that out of our mouths Loo but how funnn."

Omar is a star in his own right having followed Maya's lead and made his way into showbiz by modelling for some huge brands, including Celine, Etro Fashion and Portuguese Soul.
