When it comes to TOWIE, or any reality TV show for that matter, there is always a question mark about how much of it is actually real.
From Love Island and Ex on the Beach to Made in Chelsea and TOWIE, former stars of the show's are constantly opening up about producer interference and scenes that are set up to cause the most amount of drama.
The latest person to speak out about their time on TOWIE is Chloe Brockett and she is NOT happy bunny.
First talking about the dollar the cast earn during filming, Chloe, who is currently dating Love Island 2018 winner Jack Fincham revealed all.
'You get paid per day, max three days a week,' she explained in a chat with The Sun, 'it started on £90, then £250 and then £400.'
She continued, 'They film for 22 weeks a year, that’s £22,000 a year,' she went on, before adding, 'I was getting minimum wage to be abused.'
During her stint on TOWIE, Chloe found herself at odds with countless co-stars including Amber Turner, Jordan Brook and Ella-Rae Wise.
She was also reportedly suspended from the show, prior to leaving, for an altercation with former fling, Roman Hackett. However, Chloe recently revealed that she was encouraged by the TOWIE big bosses to cause chaos, but when it all kicked off, they were nowhere to be seen.
'The producers repeatedly told me to chuck a drink at him,' Chloe confessed, 'when it all went wrong, they turned on me as though they had not had any part of it.'
'The fake storylines we were forced to do were too much,' she admitted, 'it was clear I was in no fit state to be doing any work.'
Chloe previously declared the, 'door is firmly closed,' on TOWIE and after these recent comments, we can't imagine she will be returning anytime soon.
Since Chloe revealed details about her time on the show the TOWIE team have been in touch and opened up about the vast and crews safety.
'The welfare of TOWIE’s cast and crew is of primary importance. Any concern regarding behaviour is immediately investigated and dealt with in line with our robust protocols,' they explained, 'safety on set is central to our production and cast members would never be instructed to do anything they disagreed with or indeed be asked to discuss any false narratives.'
