TOWIE’S Chloe Sims was left screaming in agony as she got a rarely-seen tattoo removed and said it has “traumatised” her.
The 40-year-old reality star was sweating buckets as she underwent the painful procedure.

The Essex beauty was in so much discomfort that she described the removal process as “hell”.
“I’m so scared, I can’t cope…I’m having my tattoo removed but I don’t feel better because you keep saying that it hurts,” she told fans as she shared a photo from the clinic.
The tattoo removal expert said she was being honest about the levels of pain – leaving Chloe petrified as the laser machine approached her skin.
Screaming in excruciating pain as soon as it touched her, Chloe closed her eyes and looked away.


She yelled out in pain: “This is so bad…girls don’t have tattoos if you don’t want to ever remove them.”
Only half way through the removal and Chloe wailed: “I am absolutely sweating, this ain’t for the light-hearted.”
Following the cosmetic procedure, the TV favourite said: “I’ve done it but I’m absolutely traumatised.
“I’m not going to lie and I’ve got to keep going back. It’s hell, it was worse than having a tattoo.
“I feel like I’ve got to sit here a minute, I can’t even drive, I was that stressed out.”
Chloe’s painful episode comes after it was revealed that Towie has been thrown into chaos after a fall-out with Pete Wicks, which has threatened filming for the new series.
Chloe raised eyebrows last week by unfollowing Pete, 33, on Instagram and removing all traces of him from her page.
Now The Sun can reveal that the former couple are suggesting they won’t be able to film scenes together when shooting resumes in June.
A source said: “It could be a disaster for Towie as Chloe is saying she won’t be able to film with Pete.
“But I think everyone on the show is worried that by the time filming starts, they’ll have made up and all the drama will have happened off camera – not on!”
Pete previously confirmed he and Chloe had been in a secret sexual relationship on and off for two years.
They then sparked rumours they were back together during a cosy red carpet appearance in December.
However around the same time Pete was linked to Celebs Go Dating’s Jessika Power, who later said she’d love to join Towie.
We’re told neither Chloe or Pete know where they stand with each other right now which is causing tension between them.
An insider added: “Pete doesn’t know where all of this has come from. He and Chloe have always been up and down but things between them aren’t good right now.”
The Sun recently revealed that bosses are keen to fly to an exotic location to film series 30 in June – with Dubai at the top of their list.


A source said: “Producers are keen to make sure the new series is brilliant and a glam new location is just what they need.
“Dubai is at the top of their list and unsurprisingly the cast are hoping it works out. Either way, they all just want to get back to shooting the show.”
