The Only Way Is Essex has dropped another star from its cast.

Amid a big cull of regulars in the past few weeks, it's now been revealed that Amber Turner won't be part of the ITVBe series when it returns.

"Executive producers have informed Amber that she won't be starting the series," a spokesperson for the show said (via The Sun). "However, Amber is in dialogue with producers to see if there is an opportunity for her to return."

Amber first joined the series back in 2017 when she was dating Jamie Reed, though they eventually split and Amber ended up going out with Dan Edgar.

She joins the likes of Myles Barnett, Jon Clark, Chris Clark, Chloe Lewis, Dean Ralph, Jordan Wright and Adam Oukhellou in leaving the show.

A spokesperson for the show said after the original spate of announcements: "Every series we review our cast to ensure we're following the lives of those who are most interesting and willing to share their real lives and relationship highs and lows.

"A number of cast have been notified that they're not being contracted for the start of series 24 as we look to bring in some fresh new faces, however we've always maintained that cast can return as and when the timing is right for them and the show.

"It's how TOWIE has stayed so fresh and exciting for nearly a decade. We remain grateful to every single cast member that has featured in TOWIE and contributed to its huge success."

However, new faces will be joining the cast, including Chloe Sims' sister Demi.

The Only Way Is Essex airs on ITVBe.
