Chloe ‘Talks’ More
She said in the documentary: ‘Now I’ve heard how it all works and the big money involved, I want to put it to the test, it’s time to launch my own showmance.
‘If I really was going to be serious, that is so easy to make money off. You can start to see the web of finances that can go behind a reality couple.’
Chloe and Harry met with celebrity agent Dave Read, who looks after the likes of Joey Essex and Hannah Elizabeth, who told them he could see a ‘lucrative future’ for them.
