Joey is no stranger to a reality show, and took place in E4’s Celebs Go Dating season 2, which aired in 2017.

Things quickly turned sour between Grace and Joey, although Jessy and Grace became best of friends during their mutual time spent in the villa. After Joey moved on, Grace got to know a number of bombshells, including Casa Amor Islander Blade.
