Sam Faiers and Joey Essex

Joey Essex was spotted kissing a mystery brunette at Wireless festival on Saturday (13.07.13)

'The Only Way Is Essex' star - who recently called time on his engagement to co-star Sam Faiers - was seen getting cosy with a female friend after he plucked her from the crowd and whisked her back stage for some intimate smooching.

An onlooker told the Mirror: "Joey seemed to be well and truly over the heartbreak of splitting with fiancée Sam Faiers as he and his new girlfriend were photographed kissing and cuddling for over an hour."

Joey - who announced on the final episode of 'TOWIE' on Wednesday (10.07.13) that he was happier after ending his romance with Sam - appeared to have angered the blonde beauty as she took to Twitter to blast the pictures of him and his new love interest, claiming that she was supposed to be a friend of hers.

She wrote: "Known this girl since I was 7, just shows u...(sic)"

She later re-tweeted: "Dogs have no morals...(sic)"

Meanwhile, Joey attracted the attention of even more onlookers after he was heard getting into a bitter row with co-star James 'Arg' Argent about what time to leave the London festival.

An insider said: "It would seem that Arg and Joey were having so much fun in the Yahoo! VIP area that they were late for a pre-booked appearance at a Bar Mitzvah!"
