Inside TOWIE’s Harry Derbridge’s Extravagant Engagement Party

He was one of the original stars of TOWIE, coining the iconic catch phrase “shut up!”, and this weekend saw Harry Derbridge celebrate his engagement with a lavish party.

Harry and his partner Dean Rowland held an engagement party over the weekend, with Harry sharing photos from the celebration, writing: “We’re getting MARRIED ?? I’m still in shock ? thank you everyone who was apart of our special day ❤️ love you more then anything @mrdeanrowland ?”

In true Essex style, the garden party held at Harry’s cousin Amy Childs’ house was decorated with light up letters and an abundance of balloons, plus they even had a tuktuk bar for all the cocktails they could need.
