TOWIE turns awkward as Chloe Brockett and Ella Rae Wise clash over Joey's exit

TOWIE fans were left hiding behind their hands during an awkward clash between Chloe Brockett and Ella Rae Wise.

The fiery row erupted over Joey Turner, who is bidding an emotional farewell to the show – and to Essex – to pursue his fashion dreams at a Manchester university.

Former friends Chloe and Ella were initially seen arguing over the fact that Chloe seems to spend all her time with Kelsey and doesn’t really see much of Ella.

Things quickly escalated, with Ella alleging that Chloe told her she wasn’t even as good a friend of Kelsey’s as she made out – but Chloe accused Ella of making it up.

The two 20-year-olds weren’t going to let bygones be bygones, and clashed in a furious row as Chloe stood with Joey and Kelsey Stratford.

They recently made amends with Ella after an argument at the start of this series.

Ella approached the group to wish Joey well on his travels, as she said: “Joe, I know a lot has happened in the past few years but I wish you all the best. I’m excited for you and your new adventure.”

Though Joey thanked Ella for her kind words, Chloe clearly wasn’t having it as she fired back: “I’ve just got say I honestly don’t know what language you’re speaking because it honestly sounds like you’re speaking fluent bulls**t.”

“You’ve not been around him in literally a year!” she ranted.

Ella argued back: “I can still wish him well though.”

And things just got more heated from there, as Chloe raged: “But you’re not excited for him, though, because he’s not your friend?”

Ella shot back: “What is your problem with me?”

“I don’t like you,” Chloe curtly said. “You don’t like me. We don’t like each other.”

Ella continued: “But I don’t have to talk about you. If you don’t like me you shouldn’t care about what I’m doing in my life. But you do because you cannot keep my name out your mouth, it’s embarrassing.”

She then went on to interrupt Chloe, insisting that she was “obsessed” with her. “I live rent free in your head,” she claimed.

Fans were clearly cringing – and having a giggle – at the interaction, with one posting on Twitter: “I’m sorry but I find Chloe B vs Ella highly entertaining!”

Another added: “There was no need for Chloe B to be so immature. She wanted to cause an argument, I felt sorry for Kelsey and Joey. Grow up you silly girl!”

“I do like Chloe Brockett but why did she just go in on Ella for? Unnecessary,” another ranted.

While someone else said: “LMAO Ella babe stop! Chloe B deffo lives rent free in your head!”

Chloe went on to brand Ella “insincere”, implying that she was fake crying: “You can try and squeeze a tear out Ella and try and make out that you’re such a sincere person, but at the end of the day, everyone knows you’re not.”

Earlier in the episode, TOWIE fans seemed to think the same thing as Ella began crying in a restaurant.

“Ella’s tears dried up v fast!” one wrote.

Another ranted: “Ella’s crocodile tears – girl please! You bullied Chloe B throughout the WHOLE last #TOWIE season. Give it a rest!”

While someone else commented: “That Ella on TOWIE is the fakest girl ever. You can actually see right through her crocodile tears, she’s so nasty about people then turns on the waterworks when someone says something back.”

Poor Kelsey and Joey were left awkwardly standing by as Chloe attempted to drag them into the fray, commenting: “Kelsey’s tolerating you. She made up with you because she feels sorry for you and Joey’s saying bye because he’s leaving.”

Ella then rounded on Kelsey to ask: “Did you make up with me because you feel sorry for me or was it the general situation?”

But Kelsey simply replied: “This is so awkward.”

“You can speak for yourself!” Ella railed at her.
