It’s a good time to be a TOWIE fan. Not only is series 33 seriously delivering in the drama stakes, what with Dan Edgar romancing Ella Rae Wise and Junaid Ahmed attempting to make amends with 99% of Essex, but there’s also going to be two new cast members appearing on the show very soon.
That’s right, Junaid has apparently called in reinforcements after falling out with Saffron Lempriere and Harry Derbidge as his two pals Liv and Becks are joining the cast and their first scenes will air this Sunday (5 May).
Not much is known about the pair, other than that they are the owner and managing director of Essex lash bar, Lashes by Livvy – which just so happens to be where Katie Price gets her lashes done.
Surely that means only one thing: a Pricey TOWIE cameo. We’re manifesting it.
It seems that Liv and Becks are already getting acquainted with the rest of the cast as they’re seen doing Sophie Kasaei’s lashes in one of their first TOWIE scenes.
TOWIE cast: so, who is on the show?
Sophie Kasaei
We know, she's not new to TV, but Geordie Shore's Sophie Kasaei is new to Essex. Sophie joined the show after she started dating Jordan.
Amber Turner
Amber Turner is a TOWIE cast member who has been on the show for seven years. Over the years Amber has argued with former BFFs Megan McKenna and Yazmin Oukhellou, had a major feud with Chloe Sims and more recently, split from Dan Edgar.
Dan Edgar
Dan Edgar returnned to the show despite his break up with Amber. Their split came after they moved into a new house together and bought their adorable dog Oliver.
James 'Diags' Bennewith
TOWIE wouldn't be TOWIE without the lovable Diags. So the good news is, he's on series 33 too.
Elma Pazar
Love Island 2019 star Elma Pazar, who is close pals with the likes of Chloe, Amber, Courtney and Chloe, joined the cast of TOWIE for series 30 and teased a romance with Diags. Things didn't work out for Elma, and Diags but she's back for series 33.
Jordan Brook
Long-time TOWIE viewers will probably recognise Jordan Brook from his first stint on the show in 2017 alongside best friend Jack Rigden. The pair were axed after a year but Jordan is back on the show.
Junaid Ahmed
Junaid Ahmed is no stranger to reality TV, having appeared on the Amazon Prime dating show Lovestruck High in 2022. Although he's fallen out with some of his closest pals, series 33 has seen Junaid attempt to make amends.
Dani Imbert
Dani Imbert's relationship with Liam 'Gatsby' Blackwell was a major storyline during the past few seasons of TOWIE. They've since split up, she dated Roman Hackett and is now rumoured to be back with her on/off boyfriend.
Roman Hackett
Roman Hackett joined the show shortly after his friend Dani. The pair had a major falling out in 2022 season due to Dani's relationship with Gatsby, but they're friends again even after their fling.
Saffron Lempriere
Saffron Lempriere is back for series 33 and funnily enough during her break from filming, she made a surprising career move.
Chloe Meadows
Chloe Meadows has been filming for the new series alongside her BFFs.
Courtney Green
You wouldn't see Chloe M without her best pal Courtney Green, who will also be on TOWIE series 33.
Amy Childs
Amy Childs returned to TOWIE for the 10 year anniversary and she's here to stay. She recently welcomed twins Millie and Billy, who have since featured on the show in adorable scenes.
Billy Delbosq
Yup. Amy's fiancé Billy is back on the show for series 33 after becoming a dad for the first time.
Who has left TOWIE?
Chloe Brockett
Chloe was suspended from TOWIE filming towards the end of series 32 following an alleged altercation with co-star Roman. She later confirmed she wouldn't be returning to the show.
James Lock
Although he's not confirmed he's quit the show for good, Lockie hasn't appeared on the the last two series so it isn't looking good.
Chloe, Frankie and Demi Sims
In July 2022, a TOWIE spokesperson confirmed to Closer that Chloe and her sisters had officially quit the show. They said, “After dedicating over a decade to TOWIE, Chloe Sims has decided to depart the show.
"Chloe has been an iconic cast member and feels like it's the right time to leave the show, as she enters a new chapter in her life.”
The Sims sisters have since filmed two series of their own show, House of Sims.
Pete Wicks
After seven years on TOWIE, Pete Wicks quit the show in 2021. Fans shouldn't be surprised he had turbulent relationships on the show and often slammed his co-stars as 'snakes'.
