Gaz Beadle has struck up an unlikely friendship with Daniella Westbrook after the ex-EastEnders star found herself homeless in the run up to Christmas.

The Geordie Shore legend has shown his charitable side and made Christmas a little better for the 43-year-old actress who shared their encounter on Snapchat.

“Daniella was at her management’s Christmas party and asked for a picture with Gaz because her daughter Jody adores him,” a source explained to The Sun.

“Jody’s a massive Geordie Shore fan and thinks the world of Gaz and Scotty T,” the source added.

Well, we can’t blame Jody Westbrook – she obviously has good taste!

The source revealed that Gaz, 28, was more than happy to pose with the fallen soap star.

“Gaz was more than happy to pose for a photograph and Daniella was over the moon because her daughter will think it’s brilliant,” the source said.

What a gent!

Over on Twitter on Friday Gaz shared with fans that someone has been trying to Catfish people with his images.

A 19-year-old Tom has been using pics of the Geordie stud for his Tinder profile.

But far from outraged, Gaz called him out on Twitter saying: “Hahaha go on Tom”.

Everybody clearly wants a bit of Geordie Shore love this Christmas.
