Remember the original TOWIE stars? We've had a look at what they're all doing now because why not?
The TOWIE gang first graced our screens in 2010. Don't you miss those good old days with Sam Faiers, Amy Childs, Lauren Goodger and co? The show has pretty much lost all its original members, but they will forever be the OGs of our little reality TV hearts.
Even though many of show's original faces have left the show, they are still out there doing their thing and we just needed to know what they're up to.
In fact, you might not even recognise this lot after their face-tightening, St Moritz-ditching and teeth-bleaching - but don't worry, WE HAVE GOT YOUR BACK.

Despite being on TV for a jaw-dropping ten years, The Only Way Is Essex is still incredibly popular, with most of the cast now pretty famous. Described as Britain's answer to The Hills and Jersey Shore, this reality TV show looks set to remain a firm TV fixture.
In March 2020, filming of series 26 of the hit ITV reality show was suspended because of the global coronavirus pandemic.
Three cast mates who very much will not be appearing, whenever it's filmed, are Chloe Ross, Jayden Beales and Joey Turner who were reportedly given the boot after failing to impress viewers.
A TOWIE spokesperson confirmed Chloe and Jayden's departure and said, "We review our cast every series to ensure we're keeping the show fresh and relevant" but said final decisions had yet to be made about Joey.
