TOWIE star Junaid Ahmed has sparked concern among fans after posting a video of his day-to-day life.
The Essex reality star, 29, shared a clip showing his morning routine before headng to a salon for a quick trim, but fans quickly noted something was off.
The under-fire star captioned the video: "A very chaotic last minute 2 hours to get everything sorted for the Towie finale."
One wrote: “Are you ok?” while another added: “Junaid, you look stressed.”
A third follower said: “You just don’t look happy anymore.”
The wave of concern comes after weeks of intense backlash over Junaid’s relationship with Joe Blackman, 26, which has played out in explosive scenes on the ITVBe show.
The couple’s romance has been at the centre of drama after their fallout with Junaid’s former best friend Harry Derbidge — who dated Joe before he got together with Junaid.
The tension escalated when Junaid and Joe made comments about Harry’s new relationship with Freddie Bentley, with Joe claiming the romance was just to get at them.
The drama caused a rift with the cast, with Saffron Lempriere confronting Joe on Sunday night’s episode.
She snapped: “He hasn’t done anything wrong to you ...
“I don’t think the issue is you and J being together — the bandaid has been ripped off, we’re all over that.
“Everyone’s over that but you ain’t helping yourself with the comments you’re making to people and you’re starting on people for no reason.”
Fuming, she added: “For us, it’s that I was fine with you, but you feel comfortable to carry on in front of me and then the tears start, and I can’t understand that, Joe.
“Because he hasn’t done nothing wrong to you, and you’re resenting him because no one is having it with you — and that is the truth of it.”
“It has to be, Joe, because he hasn’t done anything wrong to you!”
As Joe scrambled for words, he triggered Saffron's rage.
“Look, it ain’t an excuse, but Harry has not had anything nice to say to me,” he replied
“Because you f****d his best mate, Joe!” she shouts," she shot back.
“Get with the real world, digest it, be remorseful, be empathetic, and we will all move forward.”
Following the backlash, Junaid and Joe released a joint statement addressing the trolling they’ve received online, apologising for their actions but pleading for kindness.
They wrote: “The amount of abuse and hate we are receiving on all socials is beyond belief… We are REAL people with real emotions and let’s face it we have all done things we are not proud of.”
Despite their apology, it seems the pressure is taking a toll on Junaid, with fans urging him to put his mental health first.
One follower commented: “No drama is worth losing yourself over. Take care of you, Junaid.”
