UPDATE: James Lock has been cleared of using a racial insult towards two men at a pool party by TOWIE bosses.

A spokesperson from the production company confirmed: "We have concluded our thorough investigation and are satisfied that no racial abuse took place during filming on Wednesday 1st July."


Just what IS it with the TOWIE cast and pool parties? Give them a container of tepid water and a bunch of extras wearing kaftans, and suddenly they’re kicking right off.

After Gemma Collins’ out-of-the-blue attack on both Chloe Sims AND Bobby Norris last week, it was claimed James Lock was to be investigated for allegedly using a racial insult towards two men at a pool party.

According to the Sun, Lockie reportedly insulted two men at the event in Chigwell – although Essex Police have no record of any complaint, and James has not addressed the claim publicly.

Instead, a spectator is said to have overheard the disagreement and let TOWIE producers know.

A source from the production company told the Sun: “Any issues of this nature are obviously taken very seriously and a thorough investigation is already ongoing.

“The cast member concerned denies these allegations.”

Lockie has been in trouble with TOWIE bosses in the past, having been suspended last year after admitting to possessing Class C drug ketamine, although he was allowed back after the producers decided he was contrite enough to carry on.

1. An ex partner's name...

The most commonly removed tattoo is an ex lover's name. This has been exemplified by many, many celebrities, but Katie Price is probably the most ridiculous.She literally had a cross put over her "Pete" ink dedicated to Peter Andre. Then eventualy covered it up with a flower. Probably the better option, eh?
