Former TOWIE star Tommy Mallet has stepped down from his trainer empire after eight years.
The TV star, 31, has become one of the most successful cast members after becoming a multi-millionaire following the launch of his shoe brand, Mallet. But Tommy confirmed he has now left his role as co-founding director, telling his one million followers not to be afraid of starting again.
Taking to Instagram on Friday (November 24), Tommy shared a lengthy caption announcing the news. He wrote: “I never thought I’d be sitting here writing this, but with it now being public knowledge through news articles I have to address.”

“On the 31st of October I stood down from my role at Mallet London, the company I love and always will do, for many reasons, the main one being I feel it’s important to grow in life and not stay still, I’ve done all I set out to accomplish with this brand, and I’m forever grateful for what I’ve learnt and who I’ve met along the way!”
Tommy continued: “I love you all involved (even the ones I’ve been in legal battles with) because without you I wouldn’t be who I am today and wouldn’t be prepared for what’s in front of me in my journey! I’ve learnt a lot this year and the main lesson for me is no matter what don’t be scared to start again if it’s something you believe in, I still own the company and I’ve left it in good hands!”
