TOWIE, the nation’s best-loved reality show is opening its world further, with two brand-new spin-off specials announced today for ITV2 and ITVX, arriving later this year. Amy Childs: A TOWIE Wedding (three episodes) and Jordan & Sophie: A TOWIE Baby (two episodes) will each follow a couple through a separate, life-changing chapter of their lives.

Amy Childs: A TOWIE Wedding follows TOWIE royalty Amy Childs and her husband Billy Delbosq as they celebrate their long-awaited happy ending. After tying the knot in an intimate legal ceremony in London earlier this year, it’s finally time for the big Spanish wedding party, a celebration years in the making and a year overdue. The three-part special absolutely refuses to shy away from the utter chaos, capturing wedding planning gone brilliantly awry and the sheer, sweat-inducing nerves of pulling off a dream wedding abroad for the undisputed Queen of Essex. Let’s be real, organising the fake tan and prosecco logistics alone will be an Olympic sport! To add to the glorious madness, her best friend and cousin Harry will be the mastermind behind a hen do that she (and probably the entire Spanish coastline) will never forget.

The road to the altar hasn’t been all laughs and sangria, though. The last time Amy tried to plan this epic wedding, it all came crashing down when her mum suffered a sudden, life-changing heart attack. Now, cue the happy tears: with her mum wonderfully on the mend and her children right by her side, Amy is finally getting the spectacular “I do” she was promised.

Jordan & Sophie: A TOWIE Baby is a two-part special that trades glitz for baby bottles, following TOWIE and Geordie Shore favourites Jordan Brooks and Sophie Kasaei as they step into a new phase of life following the arrival of their miracle baby boy, Brody. For years, the couple feared this day might never come, battling fertility struggles and the quiet grief of a family they weren’t sure they’d ever get to have. Now, against the odds, they’re living the life they once only pictured in their dreams, navigating the whirlwind of newfound parenthood, introducing Brody to their closest loved ones, and getting a crash course in life with a newborn.

Lauren Hicks, Executive Producer at Objective Entertainment, part of media and entertainment group, Banijay Entertainment, said: “Weddings, babies, heartbreak, hope. This is TOWIE at its most raw and real, giving audiences an intimate look into two of our best-loved couples at the biggest moments of their lives. No filters, just Amy, Billy, Jordan and Sophie living through it in real time. Audiences are in for an emotional rollercoaster.”
