Joey Essex Opens Up About Losing His Mum | Celebrity First Dates

[@Dante_The_Honest]

The mom was awesome for staying strong until her promise was kept. I respect her for that.

[@EloisePrior1]

She was amazing. Thanks for your comment

[@henryhewitt4971]

If my mum died when I was 11 I wouldn’t still be here today I have no doubt about that. Joey is a strong man.

[@joemurray]

So many people criticise and make fun ofJoey Essex for his lack of knowledge. I wonder how many of them knew what he had gone through and will still be going through, with the death of his mum and how that will have impacted his school and life experience.

[@justjakestuart]

I got his book for my birthday when I was like 14 and it’s really heartbreaking to read, obviously with him loosing his mum he just couldn’t concentrate, got into fights, was all just too much for him.

[@FIFALIZARD]

Seeing Joey Essex likes this is mad

[@PrettyMiyaw19159]

I cannot imagine losing my mum, and at 17?

[@MS-uc8ie]

Joey was only 11, bless them both, really sad

[@leabrennan1553]

I was only 8 when my mum passed away from breast cancer its a horrible disease so it is and it's taken do many people I love away from me

[@MatthewNY94]

I Lost my mom when I was 4, and then my dad when I was 9

[@kaynaatrashid9926]

MatthewNY94 hope your okay x I lost my mum when I was 6 :(

[@PunkyPrincessPop]

MatthewNY94 wow, I lost my mum at 9 and my dad at 19

[@a.z.a931]

[@EloisePrior1]

She was amazing. Thanks for your comment

[@lovelivi1591]

They are both gorgeous and would make beautiful babies lol I hope they keep dating!

[@MS-uc8ie]

It said they didn't go on another date on the end credits sadly

[@Distracted]

@@MS-uc8ie I'm not surprised. Despite having things in common I picked up almost no chemistry between them in this clip.

[@MS-uc8ie]

William Distracted really!? i thought they were a good match and they got along well, there’s another video of their date and they were flirting and laughing together so i was surprised, for sure

[@khadras4853]

M K i really appreciate you giving us the ending!

[@Jackdonald333]

He’s actually such an inspiration, had such a hard part of his life and now has become so successful ❤️🙏

Basement Boutiques literally just came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed 😂😂

[@maeslifestyle2951]

“We’ve both got the best eyes in the world don’t we?” Modest Joey 😂

[@Lisa-wy1fp]

Joey Essex has A Beautiful Heart. Any television programme that Joey has appeared on i haven't and wouldn't miss it. To me He's A breath of fresh air and genuinely makes me laugh out loud everytime. I wish Joey was on T.V more because He's so endearing and entertaining. I just Love Him and I Miss Him on TOWIE. 💯🙏❤❤

[@antwto8784]

wow they both turned out really happy and jolly despite losing their mums young nice to see them still going strong

[@pwnyrampage5407]

Bit shady putting him with someone who also lost their mum, he shouldn't have to feel obligated to discuss his mother's death on a TV show.

[@matthewh8]

Lewis Roberts EXACTLY this was obviously planned and I think he knew

[@Bane1Mirin]

Anything for views

[@denachtconducteur7070]

This program is about bounding

[@MH-ji6td]

There was a twitch in his eye like he knew he'd just been set up. Well shady Channel 4. I felt sorry for him.

[@bronwenday]

This episode was for Stand Up 2 Cancer, so I'm pretty sure he agreed to go on the show to talk about losing his mum...

[@Matt00740]

I lost my mum year ago, I am 36 and I can’t still get over it. Never mind losing you mum at 17 I can’t even imagine

[@maisybailey4269]

I hate when people slag joey Essex off bcos he’s actually so lovely and people don’t realise

[@Jackdonald333]

See after watching grief and me and hearing how much pain he actually had gone through, I can really see it in his eyes when he is speaking about his mum 😢

[@mrsnugglestv7326]

For all those people hating on joey none of you tools no the half of what that young lad has been through. His mum killed herself suddenly and he suffers with severe anxiety and after his mum died suffered yrs of panic attacks. I am ex forces veteran I served 12 yrs in the british forces on front line ops ,and seen all sorts of things. No one asks for sympathy but a little under standing. Joey is a good kid and I have seen allot of good kids die over the yrs so stop all the hating on him your only jealous. I am extremely proud of what he had achieved

[@redrhys0085]

I can’t imagine losing my mother my respect and hearts go out to both these strong individuals

[@jamesluskin6472]

Lol “your so fit”

[@MissD1973]

She’s so sweet & down to earth they’d make a great couple,

[@avocadoloverrr4251]

God only puts you through trials that he knows you’re strong enough to go through.

[@rukhsanazaidi629]

So true. One can easily tell he has a beautiful heart and is a total softie.

[@Gwomanify]

I lost my mum at 17 too. Right before my final year of school. Pretty much was a charity case the whole year, people were looking at me only thinking of what I have been through.

[@elderc2253]

He is very cute

[@aisling5643]

I probably shouldn’t laugh but when she went I thought that was an airport i actually died

[@lifeoflydia1]

I actually said it at the time, what an idiot ha

[@plus7560]

What do you mean by Essex? I'm Japanese so I don't know what this word means. Could you explain that simply?

[@szabolcsipacs6860]

Essex is either his second name or Essex is a county in the UK. Maybe he is from Essex.

[@MS-uc8ie]

マーカス it's a county in the south of England and it's also that guy's last name

[@basementboutiques8617]
