Joey Essex is 'too old' to appear on Love Island says The Chase star in scathing attack


The Only Way Is Essex star Joey Essex has been branded 'too old' by The Chase's Mark Labbett as the quizmaster reshared a brutal post about the reality star's Love Island arrival

The Chase star Mark, 58, didn't hold back his thoughts on Joey's Love Island stint as he took to X, previously known as Twitter, to share a critical post. In front of his 156,300 followers, the quiz master retweeted a post from the Out of Context Football Manager account which read: "Joey Essex is 33, he should not be on Love Island. However, it seems Joey's presence in the villa hasn't just divided viewers at home, as Chesterfield-born hairdresser Sam Taylor became the first Islander to be sent packing, after less than 24 hours.
