Former TOWIE star Dan Osborne has hit out at reports that producers banned him from being part of the show's recent 10th anniversary celebrations.
The 29-year-old appeared on seven series of the ITVBe reality show between 2013 and 2015, leaving after a row with his ex Megan Tomlin.
Press reports last week suggested that he had not been invited back for an anniversary cameo because it would have a "negative" impact on the show, but speaking on Instagram, Osborne branded the stories "the biggest load of bollocks ever".
"I've not been on the show for five or six years and I can genuinely say hand on heart I've not one single time wanted to go back on that show," he told his followers.
"Not once. Never have I wanted to, asked to go back or even thought about going back on the show.
"That's not me being disrespectful. I appreciate that's how I started this career and how I eventually met my wife but I never wanted to go back on that show.
"I couldn't tell you what day it's on TV."
Osborne now runs a tattoo parlour in Bexleyheath.
