JAMES "Lockie" Lock found fame on Towie back in 2013, and has been a regular on our screens ever since.
Here's everything you need to know about the reality TV star.
Who is James Lock?
James Lock, 35, rose to fame with his role in the hit reality series The Only Way is Essex.
James, known as Lockie, was born in London to a Christian family.
His father is a businessman, and he has two siblings, George and Kelly.
After completing his education, James worked as a supervisor at an electrical company.
Alongside his regular gig on TOWIE, he is also a model and entrepreneur.
He opened a restaurant in 2016 named Lockie's Kitchen, located in Essex and focused on serving up healthy alternatives to fast food.
The website said: "James ‘Lockie’ Lock is passionate about fitness and believes that one of the keys to living a healthy lifestyle is eating the right foods.
"His vision is to make fresh healthy food that tastes good, available to those on the go. And so, Lockie’s Kitchen was born bringing an Essex twist to healthy eating."
Unfortunately, the business was forced to close in 2018 after profits plummeted.
Who is James Lock dating?
James' most recent fling was with Love Island star Megan Barton-Hanson.
The reality stars enjoyed a two-month whirlwind romance, after going public in October 2021.
They are thought to have met while filming a series of MTV’s Celebrity Ex On The Beach in Tenerife and first sparked rumours when they were pictured kissing on a night out, after returning to the UK.
But things weren't meant to be and they announced their split shortly before Christmas 2021.
Who are James' exes?
Before Megan, James dated Towie co-star Yazmin Oukhellou.
The pair first got together in 2016 dated for two years before splitting in August 2019.
At the time, Yazmin accused Lockie of "cheating" on her with a group of women in a hotel room in Turkey.
They got back together in October 2020, but split again in February 2021 after a "huge row" while in Dubai for a "work trip".
Another Towie co-star, Danielle Armstrong began dating James back in 2014, and they pair embarked on a very turbulent two year relationship.
Just months after they started dating, James was hit by cheating allegations.
He admitted he was unfaithful at the start of their romance, and Danielle agreed to give things another go.
The pair hit a particularly rocky patch in 2015 when Danielle broke up with Lockie, before getting back together again, and once again splitting up less than a year later.
What TV shows has James been in?
James first appeared on The Only Way Is Essex back in 2013, and it wasn't long until he became a regular cast member.
He has found himself at the centre of various storylines over the years, especially with his eventful love life continuing to play out on-screen.
Lockie joined Towie with bestie Dan Osborne.
The duo caught the eye of a number of the female cast mates when they first came on the scene, but James was quickly off the market as he met long-term girlfriend Danielle.
During his first few series, his storylines on the show revolved around his on-off relationship with the platinum blonde stunner before they finally called time on the relationship.
Lockie also appeared on several other television shows such as Evil Monkeys (2018), Your Face Or Mine (2018), MTV Cribs (2019) and Celebs Go Dating (2020).
He is set to appear in the new series of Celebrity Ex On The Beach, alongside ex Megan.
