When asked if he has a big family, Vito said his mum is one of five kids and his father is one of four.
He added: “My grandmother is the first of 12! But also, wait for this, the father of my grandmother he is the 21st son of 23 kids all from the same mum.”

Cat said: “One woman had 23 babies?” to which Vito said: “Yeah!”
Cat quipped: “I need a lie down.”
Please make Vito a regular. He brings such joy and innocent passion.
Vito joked he has “12 Vitos” in his family, adding: “Very fantastic with names!”
Vito then moved onto his dish. Viewers watching were divided over Vito’s appearance, however.
