Stephen Bear Is Unrecognisable In TOWIE Series One As Fans Re-Surface His Iconic Appearance

It turns out Geordie Shore's Charlotte Crosby isn't the only one that has Stephen Bear's heart, since the Just Tattoo Of Us presenter declared his undying love for The Only Way Is Essex on Twitter last night.

In fact, the former Ex On The Beach star revealed that he doesn't just love TOWIE, he f*****g loves it - and his declaration has opened a whole can of worms, with fans reminding him of the time he appeared in the show's first season.

Check out the video to see Stephen Bear and every other most ruthless reality TV villain EVER...

"Not gona lie. I f****g love towie," he tweeted.

Tbh, there aren't many things in this world that Stephen Bear has expressed an overwhelming fondness for, so hats off to the show for winning him over.

One fan used the opportunity to remind Bear of his big moment on the show seven years ago, replying with a picture of him circled in red (good thing too, cause we almost didn't recognise his baby face).

The reality TV veteran made the appearance in 2010 as an extra during a speed dating event. He can be spotted in the background of a scene while Amy Child's enjoys an awkward quicky-date.

So it's not exactly the starring role we've seen Bear take on in his subsequent reality TV ventures, but his TOWIE confession has got fans rooting for him to join the cast now that he's a household name.

"You should be on it!" wrote one fan, while another said: "You should get yourself on the show."

A third follower chimed in: "You should go back to #towie Essex Boy" as someone else added: "I thought you would end up on it one day?"

We know Bear would definitely cause a stir if he went on the show, but would he be able to bring his Geordie lass along to Essex? Who knows, either way we're loving the pair on Just Tattoo Of Us rn.

Don't forget you can catch Stephen Bear and Charlotte Crosby on Just Tattoo Of Us every Monday at 10pm only on MTV!
