How Old is Kelsey?

Although we don’t know Kelsey’s exact age, we’d take a guess and say that she’s 18 years old.

Another TOWIE newbie, Joey Turner, didn’t join the girls for a night out in episode 1 as he wasn’t old enough which could mean that Kelsey’s friend group is pretty young around 17-18 years old.

She also has the number 18 in her Instagram bio.

Kelsey on Instagram

The Essex girl has a fair few followers on Insta at over 12.5k which is guaranteed to grow now that she’s appeared on the ITV show.

Kelsey doesn’t seem to be on Twitter and often posts numerous selfies and pre-going out pics on Insta.

She also tends to post photos of her family and has a total of six brothers and sisters!

What’s Kelsey’s relationship status?

In TOWIE series 24 episode 1, we met Kelsey for the first time.

While on a night out with her best friends, Chloe Brockett and Ella Wise, Kelsey said that she had just got out of a four-year relationship.

We’re not sure who Kelsey’s ex is but of her many followers, Sam Mucklow is one of them and judging by his recent antics there isn’t a girl in Essex that’s off limits!
