TOWIE star Gatsby has revealed he’s stuck in a love triangle with a new 'MILF' cast member, 42, and her 18-year-old daughter.

The cheeky ladies' man, 30, told The Sun Online he can't decide whether he fancies teenager Chloe Brockett or her mum Clare more after they made their debut on Sunday night.

In an exclusive interview, Gatsby said: "Newbies are coming and going all the time.

"I'm more interested in seeing the ladies coming, I'm not too bothered about the guys.

"Apparently the new girls are too young for me, but we'll have to wait and see. They could be quite mature.

"There is a MILF who has been introduced. She is actually really fit, all the boys were like 'wow'."

The acronym MILF, which stands for mother I'd like to f***, was made popular when used in the 1999 movie American Pie.

When Gatsby's co-stars teased him about being closer to the mother's age, he added: "I think I'm bang in the middle."

And although it might not be the best idea to have a fling with two members of the Brockett family, Gatsby is hoping to make the moves on at least one of the gorgeous women when he meets them during the series.

But despite his bravado, Gatsby admits he is serious about settling down and finding The One.

"I am looking for love," he told us.

"I think I'm at that stage of my life now where I want to settle down.

"I don't want to just settle with anybody, so we'll have to see how it goes this series."

Chloe and Clare are just two of a whole new Towie cast that have swooped on Essex.

Hairdresser Ellie Wise and footie player Harry Lee, as well as blonde bombshell Kelsey Stratford join personal trainer Tom McDonnell and model Jayden Beales to complete the line-up.

Their arrival is set to ruffle feathers within the remaining original cast who survived a mass cull from producers.

Before the launch of the 24th ITVBe series, Amber Turner, James Locke, Myles Barnett, Jon Clark and seven other stars were sensationally given the boot.

But Gatsby said he never feared he would one of the ones to get the chop.

"I know a bring a lot to the show," said Gatsby, whose real name is Liam Blackwell.

"I have done since I started and I'm now on my ninth or tenth series.

"I haven't had a series where I haven't been involved in something big. I don't get worried about it."

Those who have survived say they're expecting big things from the series ahead as we caught up with them at the Towie press launch at ITV headquarters.

Talking about the new arrivals, Courtney Green said: "It's a whole new generation of Towie. I think it's quite a good thing.

"Where we're a bit older meeting our life partners, they're single and going to have a lot of drama."

"It's quite an intimidating situation to go onto something where people are established," her co-star Shelby Tribble said.

"It's like being back at school trying to fit in with people."

Chloe Meadows added: "I always want to give them a chance, see what they're like and give them benefit of the doubt at first.

"It's hard coming onto a show, although I think they've got it good because they've got a whole new group coming on.

"They don't need to get into the group, because they've got their own group."

Towie continues every Sunday at 9pm on ITVBe.
