Then and now: Photos of the original TOWIE cast show who’s had the biggest transformations

It’s been 16 years since the first-ever episode of TOWIE aired, and the original cast members have changed drastically. Here are photos of the OG cast members from episode one to now, which show who’s had the biggest transformation. Some of them are honestly unrecognisable!

Amy Childs

Amy Childs has definitely had one of the biggest TOWIE transformations, from her iconic red hair vajazzle era to a married mum of four. She’s a totally different person. 

Mark Wright

Mark Wright actually looks strangely… the same? He was 23 in the first ever episode of TOWIE, and now he’s 39, yet he’s somehow hardly aged a day. What’s his magic? This needs to be studied. 

Harry Derbridge

I think we can all safely say Harry has had one of the biggest glow-ups in TOWIE history. He was just 16 when he appeared in the first-ever episode, a full-on child. Now, he’s 32 and a whole new person. 

Lauren Goodger

16 years on, Lauren looks pretty different too. She’s still got the same hair, but the mum has got a whole different aura about her. A true TOWIE icon, and she’s thriving. 

Sam Faiers

Sam looks worlds away from her bright blonde hair and orange fake tan days. Now, she’s a full-on businesswoman, and even her voice is so different these days. What happened to her accent?

Kirk Norcross

Kirk was one of TOWIE’S biggest faces as his late dad owned the famous Sugar Hut nightclub. Now, he’s quit fame altogether, runs his own rubbish and waste collection service and looks unrecognisable. 

James Argent 

Arg hasn’t really changed much either. He still has exactly the same hairstyle and cheeky grin, and the same passion for singing too, which he spoke about a lot on TOWIE.
