The Only Way is Essex-Mark gatecrashes a date and the reason why he and Lauren broke-up

 Feeling lonely with his takeaway pizza and night alone in front of the tele, a heartbroken Mr Wright decided to go and join his best mater Arg on a romantic date with girlfriend Lydia on last night’s episode. Clearly Mark hadn’t heard three’s a crowd, as he sat with the pair, who had been enjoying desert. While Arg chatter away to Mark, Lydia didn’t seem exactly thrilled by his presence and gave it to him straight about his failed relationship with Lauren, who at the time was at Gemma’s single event, a lock and key night.

However, Mark lost all sympathy when, earlier in the day, Lauren’s sister had a run in with Lucy, one of Mark’s exes, and implied she was responsible for Mark and Lauren’s break-up because of what happened in Marbella? Lauren’s sister thanked Lucy, who was out with boyfriend Mario, for getting Lauren away from Mark, but told her she owed her sister an apology. Lucy replied that she would never apologise to Lauren and from now on will keep her distance as they (Lucy and Lauren) can never be friends.

Also, on last night’s episode.

• Lydia, her mum Debbie and Joey, tried their hand at selling at a carboot sale only to fail and make a £6 profit. Not a great start ahead of opening a cake shop Lydia. At the car boot Lydia also found Joey a pair of vintage Levi’s, a size too small, which he later wore to the singles night only to be accused by a girl of touching his crotch every two seconds.
• Mark went to a yoga class full of women and nearly ended up breaking his 14 nights of celibacy.
• Harry dressed as cupid for the singles night. He revealed to his mate that his ideal man would be the total opposite of him, not blond, not orange, but have a nice tan, more fun than him and hunky.
• Gemma and Arg worked out with Dino, but were put to same by runner buddies and boyfriend and girlfriend Mario and Lucy.
• Arg revealed at dinner to Lydia that he wants a change of career, and thinks he would be good as a radio DJ.
• Dino and Georgio aren’t having much luck with the ladies, mainly due to being vertically challenged.
• Lauren Pope gained joint custody of her and Kirk’s dog Bozo, but Kirk wanted Lauren back.
• Kirk is to help his dad Mick with his new hotel.
