Emily Atack and Joey Essex caught kissing backstage on last ever Celebrity Juice

Emily Atack and Joey Essex finished the final-ever episode of Celebrity Juice with a bang as they were spotted kissing backstage.

The two were pictured backstage at the show smooching, with the moment set to air on the episode.

Celebrity Juice's final episode is titled The Happy Ending and it's not a goodbye without a cheeky kiss.

She was seen leaning into Joey while he grabbed her shoulders and kissed her.

In a preview clip for the show, Keith Lemon asks Joey, 29: "Did you have a sneaky kiss with Emily Atack?"

The Towie star joked that a 'man never tells'.

Meanwhile, Laura Whitmore knew her pal Emily would spill the beans and said: "Emily will though. Did you?"

Emily immediately revealed: "The camera never lies" before the kiss was shown on screen.

The former Inbetweeners star was suddenly feeling shy and covered her face while Maya Jama looked shocked.

Will Mellor, Chris Ramsey, Big Narstie, Fearne Cotton, and Holly Willoughby are also on the panel for the episode.

At the show's wrap party, Emily got another cheeky smooch from pal Joey.

Emily, 32, shared snippets of their night out with her fans on Instagram, as The Inbetweeners actress got a kiss on the cheek from the former TOWIE star at one point.

Host Keith, aka Leigh Francis, wowed those present at the boozy bash with his breakdancing skills, as he bid farewell to the series he's hosted since 2008.

Another moment from the final episode sees Holly falling down the stairs as she takes part in one of the challenges, which involves trying to take a piece of cardboard back to the desks.

In the clip, as she wrestles for the piece of carboard she ends up tripping and falling on her back on the stairs and nearly into the lap of one of the audience members. As Holly falls, Emily Atack and Will Mellor look concerned but Holly is fine and carries on with the game.

Keith has promised the final episode will be fun - but admits he did get emotional as the show wrapped after 26 series.

"It’s a lot of fun and I got a bit emotional at the end. I don’t think that bit is in. I was in like some kind of emotional bubble. It was a bit like a dream, but I was trying to cherish the day. I came off stage and just hugged my wife and teared up," he said.
