Yazmin Oukhellou’s brother Adam is joining Towie next week after starring on Ex On The Beach

EX On the Beach star Adam Oukhellou is set to make his Towie debut alongside his sister Yazmin.

Fans of the show have been calling for the 28-year-old to confront Yaz's boyfriend James Lock - who has come under fire for his aggressive behaviour towards her.

We can reveal that Adam will appear on our screens in the next few weeks, giving Yaz someone to stand up for her, if need be.

A source told The Sun Online: "Adam's not afraid to speak his mind and definitely won't hold back on telling a few home truths.

"He's fiercely loyal to his sister and isn't happy about how she's being treated by Lockie.

"He won't care who he upsets along the way - all he's interested in is sticking up for Yaz."

Earlier this series, furious fans raged that Lockie should be axed alongside Myles Barnett after a string of explosive arguments and "abusive" rows.

Viewers slammed the male reality stars' 'disgusting' behaviour after Lockie called Yaz, 24, a "spoilt brat" and accused her of "playing the victim".

A week later Myles called his other half Chloe a "dirty dog" and a "s**g" after Jordan Wright bragged about flirting with her.

It's thought Adam, who runs his own garage business, has been tapped up to cause some mischief in Essex.

His reputation as a ladies' man on series six of Ex On The Beach is likely to stick in his new reality role.

The 28-year-old's even dated an ex-Towie star - Nicole Bass who is now on Ex On The Beach.

He also enjoyed a fling with Chantelle Connelly after her alleged showmance with .

Our source added: "Adam is self-confessed ladies' man.

"He's flirty and fun with lots of confidence, so he's bound to make a beeline for the girls he fancies."
