Speaking of TV stars who are related last year TOWIE fans were treated to the return of cousins Amy Childs and Harry Derbidge.

In 2020, Amy announced she had returned full-time and fast forward a few months and Harry has now made a proper comeback for series 28.

Unfortunately Harry's return hasn't been smooth sailing in fact he caused some drama in Amy and Bobby Norris' relationship when he admitted he doesn't feel comfortable with them being friends.

Things got even more out of hand when Harry claimed he didn't cheat on Bobby... Despite confessing that he did sleep with his ex seven years ago on TOWIE.
