Towie cast’s explosive 25-person screaming match revealed by Chloe Meadows as co-stars clash in festive fallout
TOWIE fans can expect an explosive festive reunion as the cast have a Christmas dinner party like never before.
The ITVBe reality show are getting a special festive episode for the first time since 2021.
Essex favourite Chloe Meadows, who has been on the series since 2016, said 25 cast members are invited for a festive shindig.
But things quickly get out of hand when a number of cast members clash – revealing there are some unexpected feuds.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Chloe said: “We do a big, whole cast like 25 people around a massive Christmas dinner table.
“It’s like a dysfunctional family, but it’s like a typical family Christmas, people are arguing, it’s quite dramatic.”
Chloe told us at the Beauty Awards 2024, that it was a treat having show legend James Argent back the show for the first time since his exit in 2019.
The blonde beauty shared: “Arg returns which is a lot of fun. When I first came on the show, he was still on the show – he was with Gemma [Collins], which seems like a long time ago.
“It was really nice and wholesome having him there and he sung for us – it was just really nice and sweet.”
Chloe said he hopes Arg returns in the future and may even introduce his new girlfriend and stunning model Nicoline Artursson to the cast one day.
Chloe admitted there is unfinished business when it comes to some of the cast.
Last series, Junaid Ahmed found love with best pal Harry Derbidge’s ex Joe Blackman and the pair are still going strong.
Chloe revealed that things will kick off as they come face-to-face for a showdown.
She teased: “They’re sitting across the dinner table to each other and everyone’s there. It’s really awkward.
“I think it’s hard for Joe and Junaid, because I think separately they’ve upset a couple of people and naturally you do feel a little bit sorry for them because they’re on their own a lot but I mean they’ve kind of done it to themselves.
“But hopefully as time goes up, people will warm up to them again. They’re together now.
“I hope it lasts because I feel that they upset a lot of people by doing that.
“So I hope they stay together forever and it is the real deal.”
Chloe also admitted that she will also be dragged into some of the drama and is forced to confront a co-star.
“There is a couple of new fallouts across the table which is completely new. Unexpected…which is new. It’s a lot, the dinner is a lot,” she said.
“I had a little bit of a tense moment with someone.”
Chloe added: “I feel like Towie is nostalgic, it’s been on for a long time and it’s a bit of Christmas nostalgia and I think it will just make everyone feel warm and fuzzy inside.
Chloe also confirmed that she will be returning for the Bali away trip next year, with the cast preparing to fly out early next year.
It comes after fans noticed Junaid and former best pal Dani Imbert were no longer following each other on Instagram.
During the most recent series of Towie Dani found herself in a tough position when Junaid starting dating Harry Derbidge’s ex Joe Blackman.
The cast was divided given Junaid’s former close friendship with Harry.
Meanwhile a very familiar face showed up to film a cameo in the Christmas special.
James Argent filmed some special scenes six years after leaving the show.
A source told The Sun: “Arg is really excited to be back filming this cameo with cast and crew.
“It’s been a long time since he was last on Towie and he’s in such a great place personally.
“He felt like this was the perfect moment for him to pop back to see his Towie pals, old and new.”
