Where the Geordie Shore OGs are now - OnlyFans career, newlyweds and amazing weight loss

Geordie Shore first exploded onto our screens in 2011 and became known for its X-rated scenes and blazing rows.

The reality TV show was broadcast on MTV and was the UK's answer to America's Jersey Shore. It has since inspired a host of other MTV shows, including Welsh version The Valleys.

Geordie Shore followed the lives of a group of housemates as they lived and partied together for eight weeks.

Viewers quickly became obsessed with the original cast members - Charlotte Crosby, Greg Lake, Jay Gardner, Vicky Pattinson, Holly Hagan, Gaz Beadle, Sophie Kasaei and James Tindale.

They have been up to a lot since the show's inception, with some confirming a return for a special reunion series. Others have been busy secretly tying the knot, announcing pregnancies and starting their own businesses.

During her time on the show, 29-year-old Holly had romances with James Tindale, Scott Timlin and Kyle Christie. She was subjected to online bullying and Facebook pages were set up to troll her.

Holly left Geordie Shore in 2016 and returned two years later, appearing in three series until departing again in 2019.

She is now an ambassador of Ditch The Label, an anti-bullying charity, and topped the book charts with her biography, Not Quite a Geordie.

Holly has moved into glamour modelling in recent years, appearing on the covers of Nuts and FHM.

Holly was engaged to footballer Jacob Blyth for two years, before they finally tied the knot in a lavish Ibiza wedding earlier this month.

The bombshell took to her Instagram to share the news with her 4.2 million followers and said: "Mr & Mrs".

Charlotte Crosby

Charlotte, 31, quickly became a fan favourite and has had a successful career in reality TV, although this wasn't always her plan.

She received good GCSE and A-Level results and had initially planned on studying criminology at university, before appearing on Geordie Shore.

Charlotte dated her co-star Gaz Beadle on and off for a number of years during their time on the show and has since branded him as the 'worst boyfriend' she ever had in her podcast Vibrators and Values.

Charlotte went on to win Celebrity Big Brother in 2011, which led to her getting her own TLC show, The Charlotte Crosby Experience.

She has also appeared on The Xtra Factor and Celebrity Juice.

The star also worked in the fitness industry after dropping from a size 16 to a size 8. She released a record-breaking exercise DVD, 3 Minute Belly Blitz.

In 2016, Charlotte almost lost her life after suffering devastating ectopic pregnancy.

Now she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Jake Ankers and recently told fans they are having a girl.

Charlotte is set to return to our screens for the Geordie Shore reunion show, alongside Holly Hagan and Sophie Kasaei.

Gaz Beadle

34-year-old Gaz was the ultimate ladies' man and was well-known for his string of flings and turbulent relationship with Charlotte.

Gaz eventually left Geordie Shore in 2017, not long after he started dating his now-wife Emma McVey. The couple had their first son, Chester, in 2018 and their daughter, Primrose, in 2019.

Gaz has ventured into fashion since appearing on Geordie Shore, launching his menswear clothing line 11 Degrees. He also owns a club in Greece.

He appeared as a cast member for two seasons of Ex on the Beach and later started his own show Spring Break with Grandad.

Gaz has made guest appearances on shows such as Britain's Got More Talent and Big Brother's Bit on the Side.

Vicky Pattinson

Vicky, 34, has transformed since her party girl days and has carved herself a successful career in TV.

She quickly became a fan favourite on MTV's Geordie Shore thanks to her no-nonsense attitude and outspoken nature. Her catchphrase "tash on" was even entered into the online Collins dictionary.

Vicky quit the reality show in 2014 and went on to win I'm a Celebrity the following year. She became a permanent member of the ITV chat show Loose Women in 2016.

Vicky has recently teamed up with Pour Moi (Pour Moi)

She also had her own show, Judge Geordie, which premiered in 2015.

Vicky has had a range of number one books and a chart-topping fitness DVD. She also has her own nutrition, fashion and jewellery ranges.

The star is now engaged to Essex businessman Ercan Ramadan, showing off her engagement ring at the world premiere of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore earlier this year.

Sophie Kasaei

After allegedly making an offensive remark during filming, Sophie left Geordie Shore in series 7.

However, the 32-year-old returned in 2019 for the Big Birthday Battle.

She has made several appearances on Ex on the Beach and appeared on Just Tattoo of Us in 2017.

After leaving the show, Sophie became a party planner for Geordie Tours and started clothing lines Off The Rails boutique and House of SHB.

She also launched her own hair care line Mane London, which provides extensions for women with curly hair.

James Tindale

But, he left the show in 2015 following his relationship with Kate Thorne outside of the house. He returned to Geordie Shore in 2019 as a singleton and has remained in the series since.

During his time away from reality TV, James became a successful personal trainer and created a gym, Gym Unique.

He also works as an online fitness coach.

Greg Lake

37-year-old Greg is the only original cast member to appear in just one series of Geordie Shore and didn't fit in with the other contestants who drank and partied more than him.

He kept a relatively low profile after leaving the show, although he did appear on Irish reality series Celebrity Salon.

Greg dated Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe for eight years and the pair share a son together, Daye.

However, Jennifer confirmed they had split in August 2020 but said they would "remain friends" and continue to co parent their son.

Jay returned for two series in 2013 before leaving again. He did, however, return for the Big Birthday Battle in 2016.
