What! I don't believe that this is happening...in fact you should make the milk coffee and milk tea for him, besides doing all your chores at home.
Do you know what is the problem here? You have never asked him to help isn't it?
Say this, "I am tired, can you please help me with xyz chore today?"
Its like a catch 20 situation: Men lacks initiative to do because they are do-ers, and when people do things for them, they think that the women cares enough to do; so he will leave them alone to do her thing. On the flip side, women lacks initiative to ask because she expect the men to have feelings / emotions to know and help without asking.

Well, it sounds like he expects you to do the housework all the time as the wife. When you take a break from the housework, sit in front of the TV like him for awhile and drink your coffee or tea, then continue your housework. Have you asked him for help?

Break the switch on the TV and hide the remote... Then tell him that he'll get to watch the TV after he's finished his Honey Do list...
Make a long Honey Do list.

Does he work at least? If he works then I think letting him relax is the nice thing to do... but if he really does sit in front of the tv ALL day, and nothing but that, then maybe you married the wrong man???

get rid of the tv, coffee and tea, go to a friends house for about a week and come back and see if he survived.

Tell him direct , most men think housework is not their duties (this is even worse if their mums treated them like kings back then) , so make it clear that certain chores you want him to do & say it loud - Don't think they can get subtle hints.

Tell him you would like a hand around the house. Communication, and the realization that marriage is a partnership.
