TOWIE fans won't need us to tell them that series 32 of the long-running ITV reality series is set to be one of the most dramatic pieces of television ever to grace British telly screens. And we're old enough to remember Big Brother's 'Fight Night' in 2004...
Since TOWIE last appeared on our screens, Junaid Ahmed and Dani Imbert have reportedly fallen out with Ella Rae Wise, Chloe Brockett has taken her place as their new bestie, Amber Turner and Dan Edgar have split, and Dani and Roman Hackett are definitely NOT together. Seriously, they're going to need a narrator for this one. We wonder if they're still on good terms with Denise van Outen?
The reason the #dramz has reached such epic heights is basically because as soon as ITV stops filming the drama, the cast take it to social media for all to revel in, and since series 31 wrapped, their Instagram stories have been nothing but passive aggressive meme shares, behind-the-scenes teasers and and flat-out shade. This week we got all three.
Our teaser comes from the girl we all have a million questions for right now, Ella, who has gone into series 32 filming with very few allies following her alleged friendship split from Junaid and Dani (we know for certain that Harry Derbidge and his new boyfriend Joe Blackman are still standing by her).
Ella – who btw has a new secret boyfriend off the show – took to her Instagram story this week to share a behind-the-scenes look at TOWIE production and share her thoughts on filming so far – spoiler alert: it's been "a lot" for our girl.
She captioned a snap of TOWIE cameras, writing, "Oh, it's been a lot 🙈." We can only imagine.
However, it appears that a popular TOWIE extra (potentially turned regular cast member?) is standing by Ella and her onslaught of #dramz alongside Harry and boyf Joe – Saffron Lempriere's fabulous friend, Lauren Bayford. She popped up on Ella's story shortly after she posted her behind-the-scenes snap.
HOWEVER, it looks as though Lauren is set to do an Elma Pazar and sit on the fence of the latest TOWIE row, as she also popped up on Dani Imbert's story around the same time.
So who threw the flat out shade? Who do you think? None other than Ella Rae Wise's nemesis/one of our all-time fave reality stars, Chloe B. Never one to mince her words, around the same time Ella shared her feelings on filming the current series, Chloe posted a STUNNING grid snap of herself on Instagram – wearing an electric blue dress – with the caption (get ready), "Good morning to everyone but the fake assss b*tches I work with 🤣😌✌🏻."
Even though we're 90 per cent certain this is a joke, we gagged.
The eye-popping post was supported by her new besties, with Dani commenting, "Chloe f*cking Brockett you make me die 🤣 pretty girly ❤️", and Junaid writing, "😂😂😂 stunning xxx."
Only one question remains: What the heck happened during filming last night? This series is going to something else – one hundred per cent.
