Seven WTAF moments from The Only Way is Essex episode 2

Lauren Pope and Jon Clark are ON

Oh, lawks. It’s like we predicted last week. Lauren Pope has a new man and he is… Jon Clark. Yep, Jon’s in Marbella after finally finding his passport (not even kidding) and Lauren seems very taken by his, erm, charms.

“You’re at the classy end of the scale, and Jon’s rough,” said Diags, who is on better form of late than we’ve ever seen him. Go, Diags.

All we’ll say is that Pops does have history of slightly ropey taste in men *cough* Lewis Bloor *cough*.

Girlband are back together

Courtney Green is a brave woman. She believes she is the one who can finally bring Girlband back together and so invites Megan McKenna and Amber Turner on a night out at Faces. And it looks like it might have worked, hooray! We love it when the women get along. *sniffle*

 
Gemma Collins has an epiphany

Bobby Norris and GC visit Elliott Wright and his fiancée Sadie Stuart at their fancy restaurant in Marbs. Is it just our imagination (it isn’t) or didn’t GC have sexy feelings for Elliott once upon a time? And we still feel a bit weird about how he treated Chloe Sims.

ANYWAY, Elliott gives GC some advice and tells her to move out to Spain. Because Playa In Marbella was such a success right? We want to keep GC with us in the UK, thank you very much. 

Lockie says the impossible

Hallelujah! James Lock FINALLY apologises to Georgia Kousoulou for what he said about her and Tommy Mallet. Has hell frozen over or something? Also, hang on - Lockie has stayed in Marbella while best pal Pete Wicks went back to Essex. Could the bromance be over? Speaking of which…

Pete and Megan are alone. ALONE!

 “We’ve broken the Marbella curse,” Megan tells her mum when the turbo-tanned twosome arrive back in Blighty. Because last time they were in Marbella was when Megan found out about Pete’s full blown textual affair, remember?

But the pair are back together and going strong. Only trouble is, there’s just the two of them - and Amber T third wheeling - on one side of the great Essex divide, and everyone else on the other.

Amber Dowding believes that Megan’s only made up with Chloe M because she and Pete don’t have any pals left. Oh dear. 

Chloe M has a boyf

His name’s Taylor Barnett, they’ve been together for five months, and he’s best friends with Courtney’s boyf Myles Barnett. Adorable.

And finally, Jack Rigden and Jordan Brook are still about then?

Right-o. Ditto Maddie Hooper and Ruby Lacey. Maybe they’ll do something interesting soon. 

Until next time!
