Lucy Mecklenburgh has reportedly snubbed TOWIE's reunion show because of her busy schedule.
This comes after Mark Wright, who appeared on the first ever series of the show, also decided not to take part.
The 29-year-old, who is engaged to former Coronation Street actor Ryan Thomas, gave birth to their son Roman in March.
And with her new parenting duties, Lucy has reportedly not been able to find the time to take part in the 10th anniversary reunion.
A source told The Sun : "Lucy loves the show and has a real soft spot for it but unfortunately she’s too busy to fit in filming for the reunion.
“She has so much going on at the moment."
They added that between her business and being a new parent, she has no time for the show.
Lucy appeared in TOWIE for three years, during which she was involved in a love triangle with Mark Wright and Mario Falcone.
She was proposed to by the latter on the show, but they broke off the engagement in 2013 - the same year she left the programme.
The reality star went on to take part in Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls in 2017, where she met soap star Ryan.
Lucy and Ryan began dating that year and she supported him through his difficult stint in the infamous last series of Celebrity Big Brother, in which he was wrongly accused of punching Roxanne Pallett.
TOWIE producers were forced to adjust their plans in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic and will feature a countdown of the biggest moments on the show.
