THE Towie star has revealed his cousin has died, sharing a devastating tribute to his loved one on social media.

Towie fans rushed to send their condolences as Tommy revealed his family tragedy.
Tommy is best known for his time on The Only Way Is Essex, where he became a fan favourite thanks to his cheeky personality and romance with co-star Georgia Kousoulou.
Away from reality TV, he’s built a business empire with his trainer brand Mallett London.
But on Sunday, he shared the heartbreaking news that his cousin had passed away.
He posted a photo with he youngster on Instagram, along with the caption: “Fly high cuz 🕊️”.
The reality star has yet to reveal further details, but made it clear how deeply the loss has affected him.
Fans and celeb pals flooded the comments with support, sending love to Tommy and his family during the difficult time.
One wrote: “I am so sorry for your loss. Sending love to your family . Rest easy young man.”

A third penned: “So young rip sorry for your loss.”
Towie star Demi Sims and wife Georgia showed their love and support by adding heart emojis in the comment section.
Towie pal James Argent also commented: “Rest in peace.”
Lovebirds Tommy and Georgia had a second wedding in June.
The reality TV stars put on a lavish event on the Spanish island of Mallorca, and also marked Georgia’s 34th birthday.
They first tied the knot in 2023 in an understated ceremony, but finally got to have their “dream wedding.”
“Our Dream wedding finally happened,” they posted to Instagram alongside two photos from their outdoor ceremony.
“Best day of our lives. Surrounded by so much love. Can not wait to get all of our pictures & videos back to show you how incredible it was & you’ll be able to watch it all.”
Georgia looked stunning in an embellished white gown complete with a thigh-high split and which she paired with a strappy pair of silver stilletos.
Tommy opted for a sand coloured suit and open white shirt for his big days.
They married at an opulent Spanish villa and said ‘I do’ under a canopy of red flowers.
Georgia previously opened up to The Sun about the couple’s first wedding.
December 2023 was a much more low-key affair and ended with a humble Chinese takeaway.
The couple first met while filming Towie back in 2014 and quickly became one of the show’s golden couples.
Their relationship blossomed on screen, and they’ve since gone from Essex reality stars to proud parents, after welcoming son Brodie in 2021.
And then three years later, they had their daughter Gigi.
Fans often call them one of the show’s rare success stories, with the pair proving their love is built to last.
