Former TOWIE star Mark Wright has revealed that he’s loving spotting celebrities in Los Angeles where he is currently filming his own ITV2 series, Mark Wright’s Hollywood Nights.

And in fact, Mark himself has been recognised from his time on The Only Way Is Essex as apparently, Americans watch the show on t’interweb.

Of that, he said, “The UK people over here know us, and even some Americans as they get The Only Way Is Essex on one of their websites.

“We was in a bar one night and some girls said, ‘Oh, it’s Mark!’”

When asked which famous faces he’s seen around LA, Mark said, “I had lunch next to Pink the other day, and we saw Arnold Schwarzenegger on a bike next to us with his son and bodyguard…

“It’s been amazing.”

Mark’s also spent some time playing football with British ex-pat Vinnie Jones, who owns a luxury mansion on the prestigious Mulholland Drive.

Of him, Mark commented, “Vinnie is an absolute gent, he was so polite and lovely to me.

“He had a chat with me, telling me about his Hollywood lifestyle, and gave me man of the match.

“I didn’t go to his house but he said next time I should go over and play poker.”

You can catch Mark Wright’s Hollywood Nights on ITV2 on Sunday evenings.
