Joey Essex, the reality TV star known for his appearances on shows like I'm A Celeb and TOWIE, is reportedly looking to settle down and start a family. According to his best mate James 'Diags' Bennewith, Joey, who boasts an £8million fortune and a lavish lifestyle complete with a £1.6million mansion and a Lamborghini, is ready to find The One. Joey, 33, has enjoyed a successful career in television, but now he's keen to share his life with someone special.
"He wants to settle down," Diags revealed to the Mirror. "Our mates are getting married and having kids. He is in that headspace now.
He's like: 'I've got all this stuff, I've got my house, but I've got no-one to share it with. I wake up in this house on my own.' He wants a family - he wants kids. Going on Love Island is him putting that out into the Universe - it's manifesting." Viewers of Love Island saw Joey open up about the tragic loss of his mum at just 10 years old.
Speaking to M&S worker Jess White, Joey shared how losing his mum at such a young age had a profound impact on his life. "If you lose your mum at a really young age, it's a big part of your life," said Diags, who has been friends with Joey since primary school. "You learn a lot from your mum - emotional insight, how to deal with certain things and he didn't have that." "Obviously his dad did an amazing job, but not having a mum there, it's taken Joey a lot longer to be emotionally intelligent.
I've known him growing up through that and there were times where he just did not speak about it. It was just unspoken. Out of respect, nobody spoke about it, nobody brought it up, and I think that suppressed a lot of feelings for him.
