Junaid Ahmed

Journalist graduate and ex Bank Manager Junaid has just burst onto our screens as Towie’s newest cast member.

Scouted at 15, Junaid began modelling and developed a passion for being in front of the camera which led to his first TV rodeo on Channel 4 documentary ‘Obsessed with my body’ discussing the rise in male body image.

Going on to appear in Amazon Primes reality show ‘Lovestruck High’ Junaid was swiftly signed up for The Only Way Is Essex.

Openly gay Junaid is from a Muslim background but after coming out was sadly disowned by immediate family and wants to use his platform to help others dealing with issues around religion and sexuality.

This firecracker is one to watch!
