The TOWIE hunk talks about his exes and rivalry with Mark Wright as he strips off for gay mag GT

 

LEWIS Bloor's ego may have had a bashing at the hands of his TOWIE rival Elliot Wright, but he's determined to make his mark as the show's alpha male.

So much so that the 23-year-old has stripped off nearly all his clothes for a very revealing magazine shoot which shows the results of an intensive training regime.

In the accompanying interview with gay magazine GT, Lewis talks about his relationship with Sam Faiers before TOWIE even started.

And he says the pair will always have a connection.

"I will always have a love for Sam," he admitted. "Maybe not as a wife, but as a girl who taught me a lot about love, and taught me a lot about loving yourself as well.

"We’re cool now. Our relationship is at arm’s length and she’s obviously with Joey [Essex], but I respect that. It just is what it is."

Lewis clashed with Elliot's cousin Mark Wright before he joined the ITV2 show, over both Sam Faiers and Lauren Goodger – who both men have been involved with.

But he says that the former love rivals are now civil when they meet.

Speaking about their complicated 'love square', he explained: "I’d heard that Mark and Sam were doing things together – kissing, whatever it was. And I loved Sam. I didn’t want to break up with her.

"She was the first girl I’d ever stopped being a player for, and said ‘right, I love you, I want to be with you’.

"Whether it was true about Mark and Sam or not... y’know, there’s no smoke without fire. Anyway, I’d seen Lauren out once, she was flirting and, yeah, we bumped uglies."

Lewis is now thought to be getting close to another Brentwood co-star: Lauren Pope.

Whether they'll end up 'bumping uglies' – yes, we said it – remains to be seen…
