Meanwhile, Chrishell Stause is heading down under and has joined the cast of Neighbours meaning she’ll spend more time with her partner G Flip.
Chrishell, 42, will be playing Yasmine "Yas" Shields, a successful and glamorous businesswoman chasing a thrilling new opportunity.
"I am honoured and excited to join such a beloved and iconic show," says the star. "Coming from the world of soaps in the US, it's back to my first love in the entertainment industry. They pitched me an idea for a character, and I was immediately excited to figure out a way to make it happen. Ramsay Street here I come! ".
Joey is currently on the 2024 series of Love Island and his appearance as the first bombshell really surprised fans.
Joey had coupled up with Samantha Kenny, but when his ex Grace Jackson came in, he prioritised their connection.
However, after going on a date with Jessy Potts, Joey has now put his relationship with Grace on the back burner.
The pair were in trouble when they were caught out kissing on the terrace. Afterwards, Joey hoped to keep it from Grace and he told Jessy: “That’s between you and me though. We don’t have to say anything. I don’t think we should tell them that.”
Jessy replied: “I didn’t expect that to happen.” Joey said: “I just took you up the terrace for a little talk" which he jokingly said: "The terrace is really innocent, right..?”
