The 30-year-old reality TV star has announced he’s on the hunt for love again, as he wants to find someone he can spent the rest of his life with, and hopefully even have children with.

He said: “I’m 30 now. I want to settle down and start a family.”

And when it comes to finding the perfect woman, Joey said he wants a girl who “challenges” him, as he insists he’ll never cheat on a partner as he’d rather just “dump” them and move on instead of being unfaithful.

Speaking to The Sun on Sunday’s Biz on Sunday column, he said: “I would feel too bad on the world and the universe. My whole body would feel like it’s a really bad thing that I’m doing if I was to cheat on a girl.

“I’ve never put myself in that position. People are surprised by that, but it’s why I dump girls so quickly. I don’t need to waste time and cheat on them. I guess I haven’t found a girl who challenges me.”

The ‘Only Way Is Essex’ star is set to appear on ‘Celebs Go Dating’ later this month, in what will be his third stint on the E4 reality series after previously appearing in 2016 and 2017.

And the hunk is hoping he’ll be able to find his perfect partner on the show, after having a disastrous year in the love department.

A source recently said: “This year has been a complete write-off for Joey when it comes to dating, so he wants to put himself back out there. He is looking to date someone who isn’t his usual type and he’s hoping to have fun and learn a bit more about himself.

“Returning to the show’s dating agency will give him a chance to delve a bit deeper into where he’s been going wrong.”
