Former TOWIE star Frankie Essex on expanding her family, losing weight and making a TV comeback

'I think we'd end up having twins again!'

Frankie Essex rose to fame alongside her younger brother Joey on The Only Way Is Essex, before she quit the show in 2013 after two years. Although she would pop up on TOWIE now and again up until 2021, these days she is devoted to being a mum to her 23-month-old twins Luella and Logan, whose father is her personal trainer boyfriend Luke Love.

The 36-year-old feels like she’s such a “natural” at motherhood that, despite how intense it’s been having two babies in one go, she admits to us that she and Luke are thinking of doing it all over again. And she has a strange feeling it could be twins once more!

As for whether a return to TOWIE is on the cards, like Lauren Goodger, Frankie reveals that she would “never say never” – but right now she’s focusing on enjoying her adorable toddlers…

Hi, Frankie! You’re a mum of twins now – do you think you’ll have any more children?

My boyfriend Luke and I were actually discussing this the other day and we’d love to, but I think we’d end up having twins again. I’ve just got this feeling. 

So you’ve discussed adding to your brood again already? 

Yes, Luke really wants twins again, and he thinks it’s funny, but I don’t know. If we have one baby, it will be a breeze, and if we have twins again, at least we know what we’re in for. Whereas having babies the first time round with twins was a lot. It was a shock, but we know what we’re doing now.

If you have twins again, you’ll have to sell your car and get a people carrier…

I need a new car anyway!
