After all of their hard work filming for The Only Way Is Essex, the cast have been snapped celebrating the end of TOWIE season 12 in Ibiza last weekend.

Joey Essex, Sam Faiers, Fearne McCann, Charlie Sims, Dan Osborne, James Lock and Tom Pearce have all been spotted partying on the sunny Balearic island, with the cast posting photos of their island getaway to Instagram.

It looks like they really didn't want to leave. Joey posted the above photo, saying "The night before home time #ibizacrew2014". Posting loads of his Ibiza snaps, Joey seemed to be suffering from a case of the post-holiday blues, and we can see why. A photo shared by Joey's girlfriend showed him at a rare moment of relaxation amidst the partying, laying on a white sun lounger.

The couple seemed really loved up and started partying straight away, with Joey captioning the photo of he and his girlfriend "One of the first days in Ibiza!".

Despite the fact that the latest season of TOWIE saw Charlie Sims and Ferne McCann go through ups and downs, the pair looked happily loved up in photos from their island holiday. Taking a break from Ibiza's wild parties, Ferne posted a photo of her boyfriend looking out to sea at sunset, captioning snap with a heart emoji.

Although it seems like the cast were just having fun, reports that TOWIE's next season will start off with episodes filmed in Ibiza suggest that the cast may well have been working - it's a hard life.
