Amy Childs expressed that the Towie cast members have been supporting one another following recent tragedy.
Reality star Yazmin Oukhellou, 28, was rushed to hospital with injuries from a horror car crash earlier in July, with boyfriend Jake McLean believed to have been driving at the time.
They were in Turkey where their Mercedes went over a 70ft cliff – despite the best efforts of emergency services, McLean’s life could not be saved.
A week later, TV personality Lauren Goodger shared the heartbreaking news that her baby Lorena died following her birth on July 8.
Towie alum Amy, 32, revealed that the ITV cast have put all the drama to one side and have focused on being there for each other during the tough times.
‘People think we always have drama, but when something like that happens, we all get together and work as a team,’ she told the Daily Star.

‘We always support each other and we are always there for each other. We are on a TV show, but at the same time, we are a massive family,’ she added.
It was recently reported that Lauren suffered a fractured eye socket hours after she and her ex Charles Drury, 25, held a funeral for daughter Lorena.
Following the attack on Lauren, a Metropolitan Police spokesperson told Metro.co.uk: ‘Police were called at 00:37hrs on Thursday, 4 August to reports of an altercation at a residential address in Upminster, Essex.

While Yazmin opened up about the impact the crash and McLean’s death have had on her, saying she struggles with nightmares.
‘I have nightmares every single night since the accident,’ she told The Sun.
‘I have not stopped waking up in the night about it. Mum stays in bed with me every night.’
