TOWIE's Chloe Brockett suffers health scare after sixth split from Jack Fincham
Ex-Towie star Chloe Brockett has revealed she suffered a devastating ordeal while on her way out for surgery abroad just weeks after another split with former Love Island star Jack Fincham Just weeks after another split with Jack Fincham, Towie star Chloe Brockett has suffered a health scare, having to quickly cancel a trip abroad for surgery after arriving at the airport. The 24-year-old was due to fly out of the UK to Turkey, having previously told fans she was planning on getting corrective surgery on her boobs. But after arriving at the airport she knew something wasn't right, becoming overwhelmed by the plan and began to spiral, suffering a panic attack before she quickly headed home. After the ordeal she began a Q&A on Instagram where she talked about the incident: "Guys you will not believe this... I got all the way to the airport and turned around. I freaked myself out. "I was going alone as all my friends are busy/working etc and I was saying 'oh I'll be brave and independent' and had a panic attack at the airport. "It was nothing to do with the company, just sometimes things don't feel right and you have to go with your gut." The star has had a lot of change going on behind the scenes, having gone through a sixth split with the former Love Island winner just last month, while also choosing to leave Towie after five years on the show. 'I wanna give myself a cuddle after the last year I've had... the only way is up from here,' she posted. Chloe was living with Jack Fincham, 33, at the time of the split but has since moved into her place on her own in Brentwood as she embraces a fresh start, despite its smaller size. In the same Q&A, the reality star added: "I am genuinely so happy. I feel at peace there and it's so pretty. It's smaller than my previous place but I just love it." Her new chapter may be the final nail in the coffin for the two's tumultuous romance which has been on and off for the last six years - having six separate splits. In April, she confirmed the latest break-up with her fans. Replying to a fan on Instagram asking her if she was currently in a relationship Chloe posted: "No I'm not in a relationship anymore... I just want to focus on myself and the things that make me happy." At the same time, Jack had a six-week jail sentence successfully overturned after an appeal against being convicted for owning a dangerously out-of-control dog. He was first sentenced in January after his Cane Corse bit and injured the arm of a runner in Kent.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Kate is dating footballer Rio Ferdinand Credit: PA: Press Association 3 She is the stepmother to three of his children and shares another daughter with him Credit: Instagram 3 Kate previously dated Towie star Dan Edgar Finding fame Kate was born on June 3, 1991, in Essex, and began her career as a business support manager at a bank. She began dating Towie cast member Dan Edgar, before landing a spot on the show herself in 2015. Dan dumped her in 2014, shortly after joining the show, meaning their time on the show was very strained. Speaking about the break-up, Kate said: "We went to Mexico and we had the most amazing holiday but... you know it just felt like we were friends." Dan added: "I feel like our relationship was like we'd been married for 30 years and we got on each other's nerves. "I can't believe it's come to this, I genuinely thought we'd be together for the rest of our lives." Kate was already friends with Essex icons Chloe Lewis and Gemma Collins when she joined the show, but eventually decided to leave in 2017. She also shared that she decided to leave so she could follow her interest in business, eventually investing in Bromley-based business Dolly Donuts. Finding love again Kate met ex-footballer Rio Ferdinand in Dubai, before tying the knot with him in Turkey in 2019. Rio's daughter from his first marriage, Tia, was the maid of honour at the wedding. Rio Ferdinand calls out Roy Keane and Gary Neville's takes on Man Utd vs Man City Since tying the knot, Kate has tried to keep her relationship as low-profile as possible. She revealed that she could never have a public relationship again. The star said:"Never again. Too much stress, too much pressure. Everyone's in each other's business." Becoming a stepmother Kate has become a stepmother to Rio's three children, who sadly lost their mother to cancer. The couple have also welcomed another daughter named Cree and are expecting another baby, who is due to arrive on July 10, 2025. Since becoming a stepmother, Kate has given up the limelight and has become an influencer. Speaking about her decision, she said:'I had two choices. "I'm in this world with lots of drama and then I met Rio and the children and, I thought, 'I'm with these kids, who have lost their mum, they don't need a woman who is out all the time. They need someone at home with them.' ' She has over 1.4 million followers on Instagram (as of May 2025) and regularly gives fans a sneak peak into her family life.
