What a week in TOWIE news.
Not only did the cast just wrap filming in Bali, but recently suspended cast member Chloe Brockett broke her silence on her future with the show, confirming that she has decided to leave the series, ending months of speculation.
Taking to Instagram, the 23-year-old wrote, "I have made the decision to take a step back from TOWIE, it's been my life since I was 18 and I feel like it's best for me at this point in my life to step away, I'm forever grateful to TOWIE for giving me the platform they have. Love you all ❤️."
Chloe was suspended from TOWIE last summer after an alleged altercation with co-star Roman Hackett, but the reality star bounced back with an exciting new venture – her very own podcast called On the Record with Chloe B.
And if you thought she was going to vanish from the spotlight after her exit announcement, then frankly, you don't know our Chlo. Two days later after confirming her exit, Chloe confirmed that series two of her podcast was on the way. Just think: Chloe, a microphone, and no TOWIE contract inhibiting her from spilling the tea. We say bring it on.
Taking to Instagram, Chloe wrote, "Guess what's back for a second series... @ontherecordwithchloeb has just been responsored by @toothclubuk! I'm so excited to be back! 🤭."
We think that emoji says it all.
She's also set to appear on the next series of Celebrity Ex on the Beach in March 2024, so it's safe to say Chloe Brockett is going nowhere, proving to all the haters that the only way is, indeed, up.
In the time that she’s been on TOWIE, viewers have seen Chloe clash with the likes of Ella Rae Wise, Olivia Attwood, Chloe Meadows and Amber Turner, but she vowed to show a “completely different side” of herself on the podcast last September – and that she did.
'I think that is the common misconception with me'
Chatting exclusively to Closer last year ahead of her podcast debut, Chloe said, “I can be argumentative, I can be bitchy and I can come across as this person. That is definitely one side of me and I’ve always continued to say I can be that person, but that is what’s show on a little 40-minute [episode] and I’m so much more than what you seen on TV.
“I think that is the common misconception with me, that I’m constantly walking around spouting one liners and constantly wanting to argue with someone. Doing this podcast will show a very different side to me, interacting in a very different way to what I normally do on TV.”
She added, "I think listening to my podcast and seeing that I actually have got some brains will be a bit of a shock to people because, you know, normally I'm screaming at someone outside."
Who has guested on Chloe Brockett's podcast?
Chloe invited her now boyfriend Jack Fincham, Junaid Ahmed, Safiyya Vorajee, Hallie Clarke, Vicky Pattison, Demi and Frankie Sims, Wayne Lineker, Kelsey Stratford, Saffron Lempriere and James Johnson to record episodes for the first series of On the Record with Chloe B.
