Gatsby has shut the door on a relationship with fellow The Only Way Is Essex star Hannah, the Mirror can exclusively reveal ahead of tonight’s explosive new episode.
Liam ‘Gatsby’ Blackwell tells the boys about his intentions to end things with Hannah in a shocking twist set to air on Sunday night.
Fans have watched the reality star turbulent love life play out on screen in recent years since he joined the cast back in 2015 as Lydia Bright ’s best friend. From his failed attempts to woo Ferne McCann with a lavish helicopter ride, to his secret romance with Chloe Sims.
The 34-year-old’s luck seemed to turn last year when he finally found love and started dating show newcomer Dani Imbert.
But the pair were not to be, and they split back in December. Fans will recall recent fiery scenes when the former couple came face-to-face for the first time in front of the TOWIE cameras and emotions ran high.
Dani accused Gatsby of “treating her like s**t” in the heated exchange.
The former professional footballer turned rapper and businessman appeared ready to move on from Dani when he was filmed locking lips with new cast member Hannah Voyan.
He was dared by Courtney Green to kiss the girl he fancied most at Amber Turner’s birthday party and the pair have been seen hitting it off since.
But as The Only Way Is Essex episode 10 airs this Sunday, the Mirror can reveal Gatsby is just not feeling it and has called things off between them – not that Hannah is aware yet!
The latest instalment of the show sees Gatsby celebrate his birthday with an incredible American-themed pool party.
With his 34 th birthday looming, Gatsby realises he doesn’t want to waste time anymore and confides in the boys.
“Me and Hannah…” he begins, “I think she’s a lovely girl, but she’s just not the girl for me.”
Asked what happened, Gatsby explains: “Honestly just got too much going on, I just want to be on my own. I’ve been through a lot recently and I don’t want to get tied down into anything.
“I feel like, cause it’s my birthday, I’m like 34, I just don’t want to waste any time, you know what I mean?
“If I can’t see a future with someone, there’s no point in wasting my time or her time. But obviously I’ll have to tell her at some point.”
Fans will see on Sunday night if he breaks the news to Hannah. Show insiders have told Mirror Online that amidst the laughter and games of his birthday pool party, Gatsby makes a heart-breaking announcement, but what could it be?
Meanwhile, things get emotional for Amber as she starts to worry about what her future with Dan looks like, but will she make a decision?
Elsewhere, Dani’s friends organise a gorgeous sleepover to take her mind of not being there on Gatsby’s birthday. Meanwhile Ella is all in with Jordan as she officially ends her “special friendship” with Pete, and they get physical for their second date.
