However Billie admitted the door could have been left open for Charlie to return. The show also features his sister Chloe Sims and girlfriend Ferne McCann.
Billie continued: “He’s left but I think the door has been left open for him. It’s really benefited him and Ferne’s relationship too.”

The news of Charlie leaving comes after Tom Pearce confirmed he’d quit the show to focus on his career in the City.
He said: “After nearly three years I just thought it was time. Most of my friends are no longer on the show apart from Diags.
“I feel like I’ve done everything I can storyline-wise. I want to concentrate on my job in the City as an equity broker.”
