INTERVIEW

TOWIE’s Chloe Sims has traded Essex for LA and tells Closer about her new reality show, rubbing shoulders with the stars and how dating Stateside compares to the UK

It’s been six months since Chloe Sims uprooted her life in Essex for a fresh start in Los Angeles, where she’s been filming her fly-on-th-ewall reality show House Of Sims. And the ex-TOWIE star tells Closer that heading out to Hollywood has been “unreal” and says she has fully committed to building her new life over there.

“Life in LA is amazing,” Chloe, 41, says. “But that’s not to say there haven’t been plenty of hurdles. Moving across the world sounds a lot easier than it is. Although I’ve been here since October, I’m still finding my feet. But overall, I’m settled and living normally – not out of suitcases!”

She adds, “I’m not who I am in the UK. I’ve had time off from being famous, but I’m hoping that everybody in the city is going to know my name eventually!”

ROMANCES

Chloe – mum to 18-year-old Maddie from a previous relationship – rose to fame as one of the original cast members on The Only Way Is Essex, but bowed out of the show last July. The reality star endured her fair share of highs and lows while her life played out on screen, but her most dramatic season came in September 2020, when it emerged that she had been in an intimate relationship with best friend Pete Wicks – a revelation which saw her break down in tears on the show.

She has also had romances with former TOWIE co-stars Mario Falcone and Elliott Wright, as well as nightclub promoter and DJ, Darrell Privett. But since moving to LA, Chloe has been single, telling Closer that her love life has been on the back-burner and that Essex men are a distant memory.

She explains, “I’ve been on some dates here, but nothing that’s gone anywhere. I hope to start dating more. My life – how busy and full it is – doesn’t allow me that much time to be out dating and investing in somebody else. That’s just not a priority right now. But if I do meet someone and it happens, then great. Will I end up with an American man? I don’t know! “I didn’t like Essex boys when I was there,” she adds. “I’ve forgotten all about them!”

Chloe’s famous siblings – Charlie, Frankie and Demi – are no strangers to the spotlight, having all starred alongside their older sister on TOWIE. And now, they’re also part of their very own show, House Of Sims, which documents their new lives in California.

REAL LIFE

Chloe admits that filming with fewer cast members has been a whole new ball game, but they all got on for the most part.
