The latest series has only just begun but it looks like TOWIE could be in chaos after one of the stars has revealed they are taking a break from the show.
During last night's episode Clelia Theodorou went on a date with newbie Rem Larue, Ella Rae Wise and Kelsey Stratford revealed the reason behind their fallout and Bobby Norris and Harry Debidge had an explosive row.
Bobby and Harry dated back in 2014 but later split after Amy Childs' cousin cheated. Fast forward seven years and it appeared that they'd put the past behind them.
However during the latest series, Harry admitted that he thought Amy and Bobby's relationship was "weird" and he even told Frankie and Demi Sims that he didn't sleep with his ex-boyfriend behind Bobby's back.
Viewers saw it all kick off between the former couple when Harry said he was "thrown under the bus" following the end of their relationship. Bobby then told his ex "I know you cheated on me", before storming out of the restaurant and saying, "Amy I love you, I've got a lot of time for you, [Harry] you're full of s--t.'"
And now Bobby has revealed he's taking a break from the show.
