Chloe Sims has not spoken to her sisters in six months and is ‘deeply hurt’ by the ‘heartbreaking’ fallout her family has suffered.
The House of Sims star, 42, told MailOnline that filming the show, which follows the lives of her sisters Frankie, 29, and Demi, 27, brother Charlie, 32, and his fiancée Georgia, has caused a bitter rift from which she fears that this is irreversible.
She quit TOWIE after 12 years and moved from her beloved Brentwood in Essex to Los Angeles after her family’s reality series was signed to OnlyFans channel OFTV.
But the ‘pressure’ to move abroad and start a new life is having more impact on her immediate family than Chloe could ever have imagined, with the TV personality admitting that during her darkest days she even threatened to leave Hollywood and to fly back home.
Now Chloe has revealed the extent of their feud and how she was ‘shocked’ by her sister’s inexcusable comments, which left her feeling tense and isolated.

She said: ‘The show was an incredible opportunity, but in a way there are some downsides to it. It caused a big rift with my sisters. We are not talking today.
‘We haven’t spoken since they left LA and that would have been in October/November. I haven’t seen or spoken to them since, so filming series three will be tricky.
“It was really heartbreaking to hear some of the things they said to me, and I really didn’t expect it… I was shocked to be honest.
“This is not a comfortable subject for me at all… They’re obviously my little sisters, but things that have happened and things that have been said, I’m not going to repeat them, but things have hurt me deeply.
‘I find it very difficult to get over things when it’s gone too far, so I don’t know what the future holds, but we’re stuck for two more seasons and we have to get on with it… I’m just… but I do have Charlie.”
The first season of House of Sims is now available to watch on streaming giant Netflix as part of a lucrative seven-figure deal for the family negotiated by Chloe and Charlie.
Series two is currently airing on OFTV and the show has already been recommissioned for seasons three and four, which will star Chloe and her sisters, despite the fact that they no longer speak to each other.
But as executive producer, Chloe is determined to make the project a success after leaving the show, making her a household name in Britain and taking a chance on a whole new fan base.

Chloe says she’s grateful that Charlie supported her and says if it wasn’t for her brother, she might have left America and filmed House of Sims
She said: ‘From my point of view, I’m living in a new country and I’m trying to do my job, which is producing a TV show, and I’m not just on a show that’s messing around, I need to to be successful. … I gave up my career, so I want it to be a good show. Moreover, I had to deal with a lot with this drama with my family.
‘I’m very family-oriented and in fact, apart from an argument years ago with my brother, I would never reveal whether we’d had an argument or not.
‘Normally I wouldn’t do that… I would be very protective. Obviously these are my younger sisters, so I have always wanted to protect and advise them as much as possible.
‘There were even times when I threatened to move. I said, ‘I’ve had enough, I’m leaving.’ I have dramatic moments where I look at the apartment and think, I’m going to send all this back and I’m done. I’m going to… So I thank God for Charlie, who managed to keep me grounded.”
Chloe became known for her no-nonsense personality in TOWIE and her romances with co-stars Elliott Wright, Dan Edgar and Pete Wicks.
After 12 years, the mother-of-one left the ITVBe show in search of bigger opportunities and a permanent move to America.
She says landing a deal with Netflix was a power move she and Charlie “manifested,” but she couldn’t believe her eyes when their series ranked No. 3 on the streaming platform’s weekly most-watched TV shows.
“Our goal was for House of Sims to eventually be on Netflix and somehow it has, and it’s a real pinch-me moment,” Chloe said.
Although she loves her life in LA, Chloe says she regularly comes back to Britain because she misses the food, supermarkets and British culture.

‘We reached number 3 and stayed in the top 10 for over a week. We are so happy and grateful that it was so well received. Charlie and I are producers, so we put our heart and soul into this.
‘It’s our first show, but I watched TOWIE being made, I was on it for a long time, and we joked that I could be a producer because I understood the process, but watching someone produce a show and if you doing it yourself are two completely different things.
‘It’s intense, hard work and serious… one minute I was on TOWIE messing around with Diags and the next minute I’ve got a serious job to do. It was not something I took lightly and I was under a lot of pressure.”
Although she loves her new life in Los Angeles, complete with hot girl walks, celebrity parties and a brand new dating pool, Chloe has not forgotten her roots in Essex and regularly returns to Britain where she prefer food. supermarkets and culture.
She added: ‘I’ve traveled the world and I wasn’t prepared for it, but if I’d known how hard it was actually going to be I might not have done it.
‘I miss a lot of things about my time in Britain, I appreciate London a lot more now than I did before I moved.
‘British people are very sophisticated and I don’t say that to upset anyone, but I love our food and our culture and now I appreciate it even more. I miss the supermarkets here.
“I come home regularly, I was here for Christmas and Easter, but I still wouldn’t change the fact that I moved to LA.”
