Short-lived yet impactful TOWIE star Joey Turner said goodbye to the show in October 2021, revealing that he was going to study fashion design at university and pursue a "new path".

He was gone too soon from our tellyboxes, tbh. So when he posted about being reunited with current cast mate Chloe Brockett we put two and two together and made HOORAY, hoping it was hinting at a return to the show.

But is our fondest dream over before it's even really begun?

Joey shared a picture of a bejewelled snake to his Instagram story, and could it be a veiled reference to his TOWIE nemesesChloe Meadows and Courtney Green?

Or could it just be a really nice necklace?

Hmmm.

Joey, 21, is a reality star best known for his stint on TOWIE from 2019 to 2021, where he was friends with Chloe Brockett, Ella Rae Wiseand Kelsey Stratford.

Joey was also close to Love Island's Olivia Attwood, who appeared on the show in 2019. He even chose to come out to Olivia over dinner in emotional scenes, who straight away took him under her wing.

Are Joey Turner's parents famous?

Joeys family appear to be a huge deal in Essex and live in a sprawling mansion. Joey has never spoken about what his mum and dad do for a living.

Maria Fowler, series 1 - 3

Maria, on the left with Joey Essex and Chloe Sims in 2011, was in the show from the get-go but her TV career was rocked when it was alleged she'd worked as an escort. She's since said she quit 'by mutual consent' after she refused an on-screen romance with Mick Norcross.

Maria's now a proud mummy, engaged to be married and a self-proclaimed permanent make-up artist.

Dan Osborne, series 8 - 14

Dan Osborne, pictured here with James Argent in 2013, managed seven series on the show. He was given the boot after a series of recordings, claiming to show Dan being verbally abusive towards his ex-girlfriend Megan Tomlin, came to light.

Dan is still in the spotlight due to his relationship with ex-EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa. In May 2018 he described their marriage as "unhappy"

Amber Dowding, series 18 - 215 of 21

Amber Dowding, series 18 - 21

Amber was part of a mega cull of seven Towie characters in January 2018. She claimed that she and her boyfriend Chris Clark were cut because they were happy. They've now split and Chris reappeared on the show.

If Amber's social media is anything to go by, she now appears to mostly be on holiday. Pretty goals from where we're sitting.

Mike Hassini7 of 21

Mike Hassini, series 16 - 18 and 21

Mike Hassini was cut in January 2018 due to a lack of storylines. He was arrested in 2021 for drug possession

Jack Rigden, series 20 - 218 of 21

Jack Rigden, series 20 - 21

Jack Rigden tried hard, so hard, to make an impression on Towie but his lack of on-screen romance and agg saw him get very little camera time. He was part of the big cull of January 2018.

Jack's Instagram claims it's "just for fun."

Ricky Rayment10 of 21

Ricky Rayment, series 4 - 14

We still think very fondly of Ricky. His rocky relationship with Jess Wright was a huge part of the show but when they finally broke up, well... Ricky left the show "by mutual agreement"with Towie bosses.

Ricky Rayment, 201811 of 21

Ricky now seems to mainly go fishing.

Tom Pearce, series 5 - 1312 of 21

Tom Pearce, series 5 - 13

Remember when Tom Pearce dated Lauren Goodger following her split from Mark Wright? That was an odd time. He was quietly shown the back doorof the show in 2014.

Tom Pearce, 2018

Honestly? We're not 100% sure what Tom is actually doing these days. He used to work in the City, and his holidays certainly look pretty epic, so maybe that.

Grace Andrews14 of 21

Grace Andrews, series 11 - 12

Grace almost had a romantic relationship with Lewis Bloor (shudder) and that was the beginning and end of her time on Towie.

Grace is now involved in a semi-permanent make-up company. Those Towie stars must really hate cleanser.

Fran Parman16 of 21

Fran Parman, series 11 - 16

Fran's original romantic interest was Tom Pearce but he stepped aside to allow Diags to woo her. Bad luck. Their relationship was turbulent but apparently not turbulent enough for show producers. Diags stayed, she went.

Fran and Diags split and she now hangs out in clothing that does not look very practical.

Jasmin Walia, series 1 and 7 -1718 of 21

Jasmin Walia, series 1 and 7-17

Jasmin managed eight series until she was given the boot. In 2015 her agent stated: "TOWIE is very storyline dependent and Jasmin did not have much going on that we could show on screen."Ouch. She went on to audition for The X Factor. It did not go well. She also took part in reality show Desi Rascals, that lasted for one series.

Jasmin is still being papped, which is more than can be said for some of the other ex-Towie stars.
