By Fehintola Betiku


Be reem: Amy Childs was pictured arriving at the ITV studios today

Having recently returned from a romantic getaway to Las Vegas with her new boyfriend David Peters, it was back to the day job today for Amy Childs.

She was pictured today as she arrived in London for an appearance on Let's Do Lunch With Gino & Mel.

Looking as reem as ever, Amy made her way into the ITV studio wearing a pair of nude heel-less spiked wedges.

In good spirits: Amy, who recently returned from a trip to Las Vegas, wore a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt

Dressed down, the 22-year-old beautician teamed the bizarre wedges with a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt.

She accessorised with an over-sized beige handbag which was also embellished with studs.

Wearing her hair down in loose curls, the former TOWIE star looked like she was in good spirits as she posed for photographers before entering the building.

Excited to see his girlfriend showing off her culinary skills on the daytime show, her boyfriend David tweeted some support.

He wrote: 'Looking forward to seeing @MissAmyChilds cooking today, she is looking stunning again in one of her dresses.'

Following her appearance, Amy also took to Twitter to thank the show for having her.

Her message read: 'Had such a laugh on #letsdolunch, thank you to gino and Mel x x x'
On the show, Childs wore a pretty patterned pleated red dress.

The show host and chef Gino D'Acampo was seen getting very close to Amy as he tried to teach her how to cook.

Last night, the salon owner tweeted about jumping on a new healthy living plan, so hopefully she managed to pick up a few tips.

She tweeted: 'Need to get back into the gym and eating healthy , @Studio360_fit here I come xxx'

Last week, Childs and David were spotted as they holidayed in Las Vegas.

The young couple were seen publicly displaying their affection for one another by the pool, as they shared passionate kisses.

Looking more in love than ever, David showed off his strength as he lifted his girlfriend as they sat in the water.

So easy, even she can use it! Amy Childs plays up to her 'dumb Essex girl' image as she launches new Smart camera

By Emily Sheridan


Since finding fame on The Only Way Is Essex, Amy Childs hasn't exactly been known as the brain of Britain.

And today the reality TV star played up to her 'dumb Essex girl' image as she launched the new Samsung Smart camera.

The new product was billed as so easy even Amy could use it as she posed with the shiny new camera at the Westfield shopping centre in White City, West London.

Even I can use it: Reality TV star Amy Childs launches the new Samsung Smart camera at Westfield Shopping Centre in West London today

The Celebrity Big Brother star, who is an avid tweeter and has over 1million follower on the site, made sure the Samsung launch today would have maximum impact in a tight sequinned bandeau dress and silver Kandee high heels.

The new camera, which comes in several colours, allows the user to connect to Facebook or another social-networking site via wi-fi so their photos can be transferred straight from the camera online.

Despite her ditzy image, Amy is a lot brighter than many people realise and was head girl at the £7,800-a-year private Raphael Independent School in Hornchurch, Essex.

Leggy: The 21-year-old reality star wore a tiny mini dress and towering heels for the launch

However, she admitted she struggled in many of her subjects due to her dyslexia and didn't get end up with good GCSE grades.

On Series 1 and 2 of TOWIE, she was portrayed as a lovable, but intellectually-challenged beautician.

Some of her famous quotes on the show included asking the name of the 'person who wrote the dictionary' and asking if a matador was a type of penguin.

Strike a pose: Amy takes a photo of herself so she can illustrate how to use the camera

Although Amy admitted her geography isn't good - she famously asked if Pakistan was the capital of India - she insists people underestimate her intelligence.

She said in an interview last year: 'The thing is on TOWIE, they are making a TV show so they edit stuff to make it funny.

'That’s what they did in series one when Kirk took me to the zoo for a date. It looked like I didn’t know what an elephant was. Or a giraffe. It made me look so thick! I do know what an elephant is. But I don’t know the capital of Pakistan.'

Has Amy Childs been at the fillers? Reality star sports bizarrely fuller face and lips

By Sarah Bull


What happened? Amy Childs sparked rumours of cosmetic enhancement as she appeared on Daybreak this morning


She's never been afraid of trying out new beauty treatments, and was even seen getting Botox during one episode of The Only Way Is Essex.

And it seems Amy Childs may have experimented with another procedure, judging by the reality star's appearance on ITV's Daybreak this morning.

The 21-year-old redhead sparked concern among fans with her noticeably fuller face and what appeared to be a slightly swollen top lip.

Something's different... Amy's cheeks looked fuller compared to earlier in the year (right) and her top lip appeared slightly swollen

One viewer wrote on Twitter: 'Watching Amy Childs on @Daybreak and she looks different again! What has she had done now!'

While another tweeted: 'Has Amy Childs stopped with the fillers on her top lip? She looks different. #daybreak.'

Amy is no stranger to plastic surgery, having had her breasts enlarged in the past.

However, in an interview in August, Amy said she much prefers the 'natural' appearance, rather than looking like someone who has had surgery.

Lady in red: Amy wore a tight red pencil dress from her own clothing range, The Amy Childs Collection

She said: 'I had my lips done a year ago but I wouldn't have them done again.

'I don't like to look too "done" - I prefer to be more natural. You can get addicted to surgery but I prefer the more natural look.'

Amy was on Daybreak to talk about her upcoming plans and to promote her new clothing range.

Wearing a red dress from the Amy Childs Collection, the former TOWIE star looked slender as she chatted to Kate Garraway and Dan Lobb about the range.

Amy, who will be unveiling the full collection at the Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model Live later today, said previously: 'I am so pleased with my new clothing range, the Amy Childs’ Collection - it has been a lifelong dream of mine.

'My passion has always been beauty and fashion so I have really enjoyed being involved in every aspect of the design process.

'I have made sure that there is something for everyone and I cannot wait to see people wearing the clothes from my collection.'

Er, have some trouble getting dressed Amy? Miss Childs steps out with her (VERY high-heeled) boots on the wrong feet... again!

By Holly Thomas


Don't trip! Amy Childs was caught filming her upcoming reality show It's All About Amy at an Essex garden centre with her boots on the wrong feet


As a former beautician and denizen of famously fashion-conscious Brentwood, Amy Childs naturally puts a great deal of thought into her appearance.

However it seems that the 21-year-old has quite literally put a foot wrong on this occasion.

The TOWIE star stepped out to film for her upcoming reality show It's All About Amy with her (very high-heeled) boots on the wrong feet.

The boots Amy was wearing, which are from Topshop, are designed with the zip on the outside of the foot.

Miss Childs wore hers with the zips on the inside, meaning that they were clearly the wrong way round.

Tottering about an Essex garden centre with a camera crew capturing her every move, one hopes that Amy didn't trip over an errant plant pot.

The reality star at least looked stylish otherwise, with her long legs - looking more slender than ever since her time on Celebrity Big Brother- showcased in black leggings.

Amy completed her outfit with a long leopard print Yumi top and sunglasses.

This isn't the first time Amy has worn this pair of Topshop boots on the wrong feet.

Something afoot? Amy seemed oblivious to her misplaced shoes

The redhead made the same mistake - also while filming for It's All About Amy - while filming in Brentwood at the beginning of the month.

On that occasion she teamed her flexible footwear with a short beige dress.

Amy has said that she has no regrets about leaving the series that made her famous.

'Apparently, they (the producers) said that my life wasn't real any more, because I was doing Celebrity Big Brother. That's their rules and I have to accept that,' she said in an interview with New! magazine.

Fashion forward: Her foot faux pas aside, Amy looked stylish in a long leopard print top, with black leggings showcasing her slender pins

'Obviously, I miss the show, but it was my time [to go], and now I’ve been given the opportunity to have my own show,' she said.

'I’ve realised that, since filming, there are a lot of funny things that happen in my life, I don’t regret it at all.'

Amy divulged that she has had a mixed reaction from her old TOWIE cast mates on the news of her own show, It's All About Amy.

Off home: Doubtless uncomfortable after walking around filming all afternoon, Amy took the car

Some have said really nice things, saying they miss me,' she told the magazine. 'Some are saying there is no difference with me not being there, and some have said I've made a big mistake, but they don't know anything outside of TOWIE.'

She said that she hasn't had an opportunity to watch the new season of TOWIE yet, but will sit down and watch them all when she has some free time.

'I was nervous about posing in my bikini': Amy Childs shows off her post Big Brother figure as she talks love, reality TV and what's next

By Sarah Fitzmaurice


Wild thing: Amy Childs poses in a leopard print monoki as she talks about her figure, men and life post- Big Brother for new! magazine


She admitted she was apprehensive about posing in her bikini but Amy Childs needn’t have worried.

The Celebrity Big Brother babe has showed off her fabulous figure in a series of shots for new! Magazine showing the two-week stint inside the house clearly hasn’t done her any harm.

The 21-year-old has revealed her curves in a sparkling gold two-piece as well as showing off her wild side in a leopard print mono-kini ensemble.


Before heading into the house there were concerns over her recent weight loss but Amy says she wasn’t worried about putting weight on inside the house.

She told the magazine: ‘No, not at all. I’m the same weight. Although I ate so much Haribo thanks to Jedward!’

While the reality star might have been disappointed about coming fourth in the show, not that she has shown it, she was pleased with what she found waiting for her outside the house.

Golden girl: Amy showed off her curves in a gold two-piece as she revealed she still has a soft spot for ex-boyfriend Kirk and she has lots of plans in the pipeline


Reality star: Amy came fourth in Celebrity Big Brother last week and says she has lots of projects planned for the future


The former TOWIE star was greeted by her ex-boyfriend and former co-star Kirk Norcross and the Essex babe has revealed she wished he had been inside the house with her.

She said: ‘If Kirk was in the house… I wish he had been. We have always been on and off. There’s loads of chemistry.

And while the former beautician has admitted she is jealous when Kirk gets with other girls she said she wasn’t sure she could have him as a boyfriend.

After admitting it would be hard because of his ex-girlfriend and TOWIE co-star Lauren Pope she said: ‘And he needs to grow up. He gets bored quickly and doesn’t last with a girlfriend. We tried and it didn’t work, but I’ll be honest with you, I’ll always have a soft spot for him.’

But Amy also hasn't ruled anything out with her most recent beau, Joe Hurlock, 24, who had planned to propose before the couple split before she entered the house.

She said: 'Never say never with Joe.'

Amy also says she doesn't have any regrets about leaving the show that made her famous and has spoken of her plans post-Big Brother.

She said: 'My manager’s got so much to talk to me about, from clothes and make-up deals, to TV projects.'

The (almost) natural look: Amy Childs tones down her make-up as she takes to the Essex coast for a Vogue magazine shoot

By Daily Mail Reporter


Looking natural: Amy Childs appeared to be wearing less make-up than usual as she posed for the Vogue shoot


It's not very often that you see Amy Childs out and about without a layer of heavy-duty make-up.

So it came as something of a surprise to see the TOWIE star looking a lot more natural on Saturday as she posed for photos for the prestigious fashion magazine Vogue.

The 21-year-old beautician opted for a more sophisticated look for the shoot - which in keeping with the spirit of the ITV2 show took place on the Essex coast.

Striking a pose: The redhead was wearing a simple but stylish black dress, leather jacket and boots for the photoshoot


And she kept her outfit simple for the photos, wearing a clinging black minidress, teamed with matching black leather jacket and high-heeled ankle boots.

However Amy appeared to be enjoying the chance to be featured in the magazine, pouting and posing her way through the shoot - and at one point sitting precariously on a bollard in the street while resting her feet on a crate.

There were few glimpses of the delights the coast had to offer though, with photographers seemingly content with a few shots in front of a candyfloss stand and snaps closer to the beach - where the weather was breezier.

On the box: At one point Amy rested her feet on a crate while balancing on a nearby bollard


Amy's look was far removed from the flouncy, flamboyant Pia Michi creations she has recently been seen out in, including the gold dress she wore to the Baftas and a frilly black number which she wore for her 21st birthday party earlier this month.

But fans of the show may soon have the chance to dress just like her, with reports that production company Lime Pictures is in talks with retailers to produce a fashion range inspired by the show.

Having already brought vajazzles to the high street, The reality TV show's producers are now trying to persuade fashion chains, including New Look, into signing a deal.

On home turf: The shoot took place on the Essex coast, with Amy posing for some shots in front of a candyfloss stand


According to reports, Lime Pictures registered a trademark for clothing, footwear, headgear and nightwear under the TOWIE brand with the Intellectual Property Office on June 10.

The producers also have plans to produce a range of beauty products inspired by the show.

Meanwhile Amy has denied recent rumours that she is set to leave the ITV2 hit, amidst rumours she was clashing with co-star Mark Wright.

Change of pace: The shoot saw Amy adopting a very different look from usual, but the 21-year-old was still her glamorous self


Although a huge hit in the show's first series, which featured her doomed romance with club owner Kirk Norcross, she wasn't such a prominent feautre in the recent second series.

She wrote on Twitter at the time: 'For future records I am not leaving TOWIE.'

Only some of cast of The Only Way Is Essex are expected to return for the third series in September, with producers said to be planning a mass cull of less popular characters.

By Jessica Satherley


Perfect pout! Amy Childs and Harry Derbridge show off their matching pouts as they leave The Mayfair Hotel


Amy Childs and Harry Derbridge are cousins, so it’s no surprise that they share similarities and last night the pair showed of their matching pouts.

The Only Way Is Essex stars were spotted strutting out of The Mayfair Hotel in London, both also draped in matching white shirts.

But as Amy teamed up her shirt with skinny jeans by Lipsy and peep-toe heels, Harry was wearing a pair of suit trousers.


The 21-year-old beautician appeared to have given her 18-year-old cousin lessons on how to achieve the perfect pout after they left Nobu restaurant and headed to the hotel.

And he seemed to have picked up the advice with ease, as he sucked in his cheeks and puffed out his lips for the cameras.

The pair had been involved in a photo shoot during the day and Amy tweeted: ‘Got a photoshoot for a magazine today with @harryderbridge xxx’

But the night didn’t end so well when Amy ended up losing her Blackberry.

Lip enhancer: Amy smeared lip liner across her top lip to help with her puffed up pout

Hand in hand: The cousins left Nobu restaurant before heading to The Mayfair Hotel


She tweeted this morning: ‘Left my blackberry in a black cab last night and it’s on silent is there a number I can call?’

Meanwhile, Amy has revealed her excitement over The Only Way Is Essex being nominated for a National Reality TV Award.

The ITV2 show is up against Britain’s Got Talent, Come Dine With Me and Dancing On Ice in the Best Entertainment Show category.

Other shows nominated include Dragon’s Den, The Apprentice, The People’s Supermarket, The Business Inspector and Beat the Boss.

Matching outfits: As well as sporting similar pouts, the cousins also both wore white shirts


The awards are to be launched in London on July 6 and Amy tweeted: ‘Can’t believe I’m nominated for reality personality of the year. Vote for me.’

And despite fellow reality TV stars from Made In Chelsea not being nominated, the cast are set to present an award on the night.

While former Big Brother star Imogen Thomas is confirmed to join the list of presenters at the first National Reality TV Awards at the O2.

By Emily Sheridan


Red hot: Amy Childs looked surprisingly fresh after her late night as she arrived at the ITV studios on Wednesday


After partying the night away for her 21st birthday, you couldn't blame Amy Childs for wanting to spend the day hidden under a duvet.

Instead the beautician was up bright and early today for a top secret meeting at the ITV studios.

The reality TV star teased her Twitter followers by revealing she was going to a meeting, but declined to give away the focus of it.


But the redhead certainly looked ready for business in her red Roland Mouret Moon dress and towering Christian Louboutin nude peep-toe heels.

Ahead of her appointment, she Tweeted: 'Looking forward to my meeting today ;) xxxx.'

Her appointment at the ITV Studios on London's South Bank will no doubt fuel speculation that she may get her own show.

Two weeks ago, Childs denied reports she was quitting The Only Way Is Essex admist rumours she was clashing with co-star Mark Wright.

Never too young to love TOWIE... Amy Childs mobbed by Essex schoolgirl fans

By Daily Mail Reporter


Fan frenzy: Amy Childs was greeted by a group of young Essex schoolgirls as she left the hair salon in Brentwood


Amy Childs already has a large male fan base but it seems that The Only Way Is Essex star is popular with young schoolgirls too.

The 20-year-old reality TV star was mobbed by her young followers in Brentwood, Essex, as she left a hair salon.

And the excited girls took the opportunity to chat to Amy and ask for her autograph on the sunny day.


Amy had just finished getting her mahogany locks blow dried at the salon, where she was spotted drinking a Vimto soft drink.

Her freshly coloured hair was extra bouncy as she strolled out of the salon alongside a friend, who sported the same shade of red.

And her fake tan was accentuated in a one-shouldered white top, which she matched with blue jeans and leopard print heels.

Today the star is filming another episode of The Only Way Is Essex and updated her fans via Twitter.

She tweeted: ‘Morning tweeps… having my makeup done by the lovely @kayleighwhiting she is the best… Looking forward to filming today xxxx’

Last week Amy admitted that she loves watching herself on the hit show and said: ‘How can I not watch it? It’s brilliant thought, I like it.’

New do: Amy walked out of the salon with brightened mahogany locks and a bouncy blow wave


Speaking to Wonderland magazine she admitted that she has no regrets about her head-scratching comments on the show and says: ‘I don’t regret nothing.

‘I’ve come across as the fun character, the nice person. Sometimes I think, ‘Amy, you’ve got to think before you speak’, but at the end of the day that’s me and I let it all out.

But she does admit that perhaps her Essex girl look is just a little over the top.

‘The only thing is my make-up,’ she says. ‘Sometimes I think, ‘My god Amy, why do you wear that much make-up?’
