The latest episode of Towie brought tears for single mother Chloe, but this time the reason was not her tumultuous relationship with ex Elliott Wright.
Chloe opened up to cousin Frankie over her spat with brother Charlie, which started when they fell out over his relationship with Ferne McCann.
The argument soon escalated when Charlie discovered that Chloe had described cousin Joey Essex as a 'better brother'.
‘I don’t want to be around everybody, they’re judging me. I feel like everyone’s attacking me at the moment’, Chloe sobbed.
‘What is it that I’ve done that’s so bad?’
‘I try and be strong. Sometimes I feel like I’m really misunderstood. I just feel like everyone I get close to goes', she revealed to Frankie.
And despite her messy split with Elliott, the father-of-two was the first to put a smile back on her face.
Leaving a surprise message on the 32-year-old's phone, Elliott said:
‘Despite everything, I’m always going to be here for you. Never forget you’re an amazing girl. You’re a beautiful person and remember, anyone who doesn’t see that doesn’t need to be in your life’.
And his words of comfort seem to have done the trick, with the pair never straying far from each other during a bash later on.
‘You’ve been getting on so well, I’m sorry, but you looked loved-up again!’ Danielle Armstrong commented.
‘You’re a bit like me and Lockie, to be honest’.
'There’s that hate, that love. That passion!’
The status of the pair's relationship set tongues wagging again this week, after they attended the TRIC Awards in London together on Tuesday.
A source told MailOnline: 'They're saying their status is just friends, but they looked like they were getting on very well.'
