The Only Way Is Essex returned to TV screens last night, with the cast making their annual trip to Marbella for some sun, sand… and a lot of drama.

Even the most confident among us would shudder at the thought of being in a bikini on TV, so how do the TOWIE girls prep for their annual televised holiday?

With serious training, clean eating and the odd indulgence, it would seem.

Here's how your favourite female cast members ensure their bods are camera-ready.

Ferne McCann
Vegetarian Ferne gets a lot of her protein from fish and veggies, but she doesn't write off carbs altogether… at least not according to her Instagram page.

Recent pre-Marbs meals for the star included a prawn, squash & turmeric risotto, and chickpea falafel with feta cheese and courgettes.

Now that's a diet we can get on board with.

Self-confessed exercise addict Ferne had to take some time out earlier this year when she collapsed from exhaustion during a gym session.

"I didn't realise that I was addicted to exercise, it was more commitment to be honest and my body just overdid it," said the 25-year-old.

 

Lydia Bright
Recently returned from a trekking holiday in Peru, Lydia is well prepared for baring all on the beach in Marbs.

She has spoken before about her intense training regime and "restricted" diet, and says she works hard to maintain her physique.

"I train five times a week and do an hour and a half each day – one hour cardio and half an hour weights," she told Reveal magazine last year. 

"I eat six times a day – so a little a lot. I eat loads of protein and go through a pack of chicken, pack of salmon and can of tuna a day. And lots of eggs. Most of my diet is protein but I do have carbs as well," she admitted.

Indeed, she was pictured filling up on a burger and cheesy fries on a "cheat day" before heading to South America last month.

 

Jess Wright
After breaking her wrist in late July, Jess has had to focus on diet rather than exercise to get her Marbella-ready.

"I try to cut carbs totally out and drink as little alcohol as possible," she told OK! Online this week.

"On the lead up I generally just eat better and try to train as much as possible.

 

Sunbathing before we head home….. To say Vegas has been epic is an understatement. LIFE

However with my broken wrist and my busy schedule it was quite difficult to get many sessions in." 

 

Lauren Pope
33-year-old Lauren has found the right balance between strong and skinny, after dropping to a tiny size 6 in 2012 following her first split from Kirk Norcross.

Nowadays she trains hard in the gym but isn't afraid to chow down on the odd pizza either.

Lauren trains regularly with PT Emma-Louise Burrows, using a mix of TRX, high intensity interval training and acrobatic-style Pilates to maintain her shape.

Reality star Cara Kilbey is celebrating some wonderful news this morning, after safely passing the 20 week mark in her second pregnancy.

The former TOWIE cast member suffered a miscarriage at five months back in March but revealed today that she fell pregnant again shortly after.

"I was so nervous up until the 20 week scan," she told Closer magazine, who confirmed her pregnancy this morning.

"I've been trying to relax and enjoy my pregnancy but there's always been a niggle of worry.

"Now I've got past that point and everything is perfectly healthy, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I can start getting excited."

Cara's miscarriage was made all the more difficult to cope with as her close friend Billi Mucklow was pregnant at the same time and gave birth in June. 

However the 28-year old says she and her boyfriend of one year, Daniel, were keen to try for a baby once again.

"Daniel and I knew we wanted to get pregnant again straight away so I was overjoyed when I found out I was expecting two months later," she says. 

Despite the trauma of losing a baby, Cara says she and her partner are stronger than ever.

"I can see how something that traumatic can break up a couple. But we saw a different more caring side to each other and it brought us so much closer."

Huge congrats to Cara and Daniel at this happy time.

TOWIE's Gemma Collins has always been vocal about her struggle to drop the pounds.

Her latest diet is definitely her most extreme yet, and though it seems to have worked for now, it's certainly not the most sustainable option.

Cleanse master Jason Vale has revealed that the 34-year old reality star checked into his Portugal retreat for a month-long diet of nothing but juice, juice and more… juice.

Since returning home, Gemma has continued with her strict diet, taking to Instagram regularly to extol the virtues of the juicing life.

"She lost two-and-a-half to three stone in total in four weeks, living on nothing but freshly pressed juice," Jason confirmed to The Daily Mirror yesterday.

And looking at these pictures from a charity ball over the weekend, there's no denying Gemma is looking far thinner:

Since finishing the programme Gemma has been showing off her slimmer frame at a series of champagne-fuelled events, but she was keen to get back on the wagon this week.

 

@seeworldoptical thank you for all the fun

"And so to bed ….7 days of non stop madness crazy drunk in love kinds of behavior I resign ………… #sleep #water#water #yoga #zen #peace #nocallsplease," she wrote on Instagram yesterday.

Of course, this isn't the first dramatic health kick that Gemma has tried out.

Prior to working with Jason, Gemma had shed three stone using a controversial technique in which she was hypnotised to believe she had a gastric band which reduced the size of her stomach. The weight-loss technique is deigned to curb over-eating by tricking the mind into thinking your body can't handle a big meal.

Having dropped from a size 22 to an 18 using the 'hypno gastric band,' Gemma decided it was time for something even more drastic for her next weight loss kick… and that's where Jason came in.

The brashy TOWIE star signed up to the juice-only programme at Jason's Juicy Oasis, where her eating and fitness routine were supervised by a team of experts.

Gemma's main vices are salty foods like crisps, so prior to starting the cleanse, she was taught about the "psychology of addiction" and how to overcome cravings.

She also worked out regularly, though Jason says it was far from hellish for her. "'She has been doing exercise as well but not military-style. None of it is forced. Nobody can force Gemma to do anything, frankly," he joked.

It's clear Gemma's getting great results… but we hope she isn't taking her dieting too far.

‘Round these parts, we’re BIG fans of Michelle Keegan.

That definitely includes her seriously stylish wardrobe too.

From her always on-fleek approach to the red-carpet, to her beach-side attire – not to mention THAT incredible custom-made wedding dress – Ms Keegan is one fashionable addition to current showbiz circuit.

However, proving that just about everyone can have an off-day, the 28-year-old looked somewhat older than her years at the TV Choice awards, which took place last night in London’s Hilton Hotel on Park Lane.

Attending with her husband, Mark Wright, also 28, the actress donned a bright fuchsia dress by the diffusion line Michael, Michael Kors.

Michelle accessorised with dance-style metallic and purple sandals and also carried a pale box clutch.

And while we can see the midi-hem, high-neck with ¾-length sleeve number working well for a day-time event, it seemed out-of-place among the glamorous red-carpet gowns worn by her fellow guests.

Still, Mark managed to up the ante with a smart grey jacket with subtle pin-stripe, sleek black pants and a low-set matching waistcoat.

The former reality TV star finished off his outfit with a black pocket-square and skinny black tie complete with tie-pin.

Other attendees to sport formal wear included BGT presenter Amanda Holden, who looked incredible in full-length, figure-hugging black, and Towie stars James Argent and Lydia Bright – both of whom were certainly dressed-to-impress.

In the past number of weeks he has been making headlines with reports of trouble brewing brewing between him and fiancée Marnie Simpson.

Now former TOWIE star Ricky Rayment has gotten himself into some bother of a different kind.

The 25-year old former reality TV star was making a nightclub appearance in Brighton over the weekend when her was attacked on the street outside the club by five men.

In the middle of the chaos Ricky himself was arrested by police for suspected bodily harm. However, he was quickly released.

Friends of the star, who was said to be badly shaken following the incident, have reportedly said that he believes he was attacked because of his public profile.

A spokesperson for Ricky confirmed the incident with the Mail Online and said that it occurred following an appearance as Shoosh nightclub.

A spokesperson for the Sussex Police said about the incident:

“Police officers on patrol in East Street were alerted to the fight near to the junction with Kings Road around 2.25am. As the situation calmed, the victim of the assault declined to provide a statement and the man was de-arrested. He left the area immediately.”

Ricky was not charged in relation to the incident. However, in recent days Ricky has been at the centre of much controversy over his relationship with Marnie.

Earlier this week reports were claiming the pair had split after Marnie’s tweets about feeling heartbroken had people feeling curious.

She later came back to deny the claims she and Ricky had split, instead explaining her beloved dog Smith had passed away. Ricky also took to social media to deny the claims saying:

“Until you get a quote from me personally, don’t believe what you read.”

Oh no, there is some trouble in paradise as TOWIE and Geordie Shore couple Marnie and Ricky seem to have ended their engagement. 

The couple got engaged just six months after they began dating but it seems the relationship has ended as quickly as it began. 

Marnie Simpson and Ricky Rayment unfollowed each other on Twitter yesterday following an upsetting tweet from the Geordie girl.

She tweeted yesterday saying: "I couldn't of ever imagined what this day would bring. My heart is broken. "

Marnie also removed her fiancé from her Twitter bio and from her cover photo on her profile. 

Followers were quick to offer their support saying they were so sorry to hear the news and that they have been thinking about her all day. 

Rumours of the split were sparked on Saturday night when the couple were set to appear together at a club event. However, Ricky turned up to the appearance solo. 

It seems Marnie has now deleted any pictures of her and her former fiancé from her Instagram account where she used to post several couple selfies.

Rumours have been circulating for the last two days – but the reality TV star herself has remained tight-lipped on whether she's about to become a parent for the first time.

Not so now – former Towie cast member Sam Faiers has just take to Instagram to confirm the happy news.

Congratulations!

Posting an adorable snap alongside her property developer boyfriend of ten months, Paul Knightley, she kept the caption simple, using a baby emoji alongside a heart.

A source had told The Mirror on Friday that Sam was three months along and had already shared her news with delighted family and friends. She is believed to be due sometime in the early spring.

And while Paul and Ms Faiers haven't been together for all that long, they've already expressed their interest in starting a family.

Speaking about their relationship to OK! magazine recently Paul said: “I’ve never felt this way about a girl before. It’s hit me hard.”

In the same interview Sam added: “We talk about kids more than we do marriage, but as couple we want the whole package.”

Fans were quick to show their support this evening; on her Instagram account one user stated excitedly: "She's pregnant!! Omg." Meanwhile, another said in block-capitals: "CONGRATULATIONSS."

And a third and fourth respectively declared: "They're having a baby Na!!!!!!" and, "Congratulations Sam! You both will be amazing parents."

There’s one more reality TV show that Gemma Collins can cross off her to-do list.

This time however it won’t be because of a much talked about appearance because one Made In Chelsea star has apparently made it very clear that she is not welcome.

Gemma, who has just recently announced her departure from The Only Way is Essex, came under fire when Jamie Laing was interviewed by the Mirror Online.

“We won't just invite anyone to join.” The 26-year old said. He added that Gemma joining their cast was something he didn’t think would ever happen.

Also, Jaime pointed out he is not wild about reality stars who leave their shows once they become famous.

He said that ditching the show that made you famous was “the worst thing you can do.”

"You should stay loyal and true to your roots. Remember where you came from. If you are thinking of leaving then it should be a gradual transition.”

He said that he has no plans to leave MIC for now and is thankful for the show giving him his “place in the media world.”

Jamie was also seriously unimpressed after hearing that Gemma was suspended from TOWIE following her supposed “hissy fit” while filming in Marbella.

The series regular said that “Everyone needs to stop being idiots… We should inspire young people. Keep that in mind.”

Does this mean we won’t get the chance to see the greatest reality TV series crossover of our time? It would appear that if Jamie was in control then probably not.

After four years with the ITV reality series The Only Way Is Essex, star Gemma Collins has officially called it quits.

After a dramatic time with the series, the blonde has reportedly quit the show in order to concentrate on other work. Reports are saying that she is part of the line-up for this year’s Celebrity Big Brother, which is due to begin next week.

Gemma, 34, had previously quit the show in order to join the cast of I’m A Celebrity, but after her less than enjoyable trip to the jungle she made her return to TOWIE.

Speaking to the MailOnline, a representative for Gemma has said that:

“Gemma has enjoyed her time on the show but feels the time is right to move onto new projects.”

Since the announcement Gemma has taken to twitter and has been sharing many of her fans messages of support.

Gemma, who was a car saleswoman before joining the series, has had quite a dramatic time in recent months. Earlier this year she took time away from filming for the show after bosses were less than pleased with her behaviour.

Her supposed “hissy fit” in Marbella was enough for her to step away from the cameras for a time.

Just a week ago, another cast member, Mario Falcone announced that he would be quitting the series. The Mirror reported that producers for TOWIE were supposedly preparing themselves for more departures to come at the time.

“TOWIE are in a bit of a pickle at the minute – Mario Falcone's gone, Gemma's leaving; there will be more jumping ship soon,” a source has supposedly admitted.

While reports say that Gemma is being offered TV work for more money elsewhere, she herself has said:

“People offer me things all the time but I just can’t seem to leave TOWIE. And I mean massive things — I was meant to be going on Celebrity Big Brother but I turned it down because I only do things if my heart is in it.”

He dated a load of his Towie castmates – including Lucy, Chloe and Lauren – but seemed to find true love with the stunning Emma McVey.

Still, it wasn't meant to be for Mario Falcone and his lingerie model girlfriend of eight months: the duo appear to have split for good.

The reality TV star has recently returned to the hit ITV2 show following his suspension, and he and Emma have enjoyed several jaunts abroad since beginning their relationship late last year.

Both regularly kept their fans updated with romantic images of their outings and day-to-day activities, but now Mario has done a total clearout… deleting 27-year-old Emma from every one of his social media posts.

Her Instagram account has also become noticeably quiet: unusually, she hasn't shared a single photo of her former beau for more than three weeks. She also took to Twitter over the weekend to report that she was "drained".

Mr Falcone and Ms McVey were rumoured to have broken-up in March following a spat, but it had seemed like they had put their differences aside.

Last time they fell out – supposedly because of his onscreen flirtations with ex Chloe Lewis – Emma was vocal about her dissatisfaction, going online to state via her Twitter account that she was "far too good" to put up with such behaviour. 

"You slate your friends for disrespecting people for air time. Wow @Mario_Falcone you almost fooled me," she added at the time.
