TOWIE is back with a huge bang as our favourite reality stars jetted out to the Dominican Republic for some well-needed sun, sea and TEA… according to Queen of Essex, Amy Childs. Wearing a gold one-shoulder dress at this year’s launch party, the 32-year-old told new, “There will be more drama, but sometimes that’s a good thing!”
And even the newcomers will be spicing things up this summer, as Junaid Ahmed revealed, “I live and breathe drama – wherever the drama is, I want to be there. I’m not shy to speak my mind when it’s necessary. I’m going to ruffle a few feathers.”
But for Chloe Brockett, this new series is nothing but a clean slate – as she admits she’s past “screaming and shouting” on TV because she “doesn’t want drama with anyone”. We’ll believe it when we see it, Chloe!
