Kirk Norcross shot to fame as one of the cast members of The Only Way is Essex.
Tragically Kirk’s dad Mick passed away at the age of 57 on January 21, 2021.
Reality TV star Kirk was born in Woodford, Essex in April 1988.
The 32-year-old joined the cast of Towie in 2010, where he became a regular cast member until he left in the third series.
His dad Mick owned The Sugar Hut in Brentwood and for a time Kirk worked for the club promoting nights there.
He released his autobiography Essex Boy in April 2013.
Kirk was a household name after his three years on Towie and Ex On The Beach, dating stars including Amy Childs, Vicky Pattison and Lauren.
Essex-born Kirk joined the Towie cast in 2010 and quickly established himself as a regular.
His story lines revolved around his love life and relationships with Amy Childs and Lauren Pope as well as his rocky relationship with his father.
Kirk famously had a falling out with co-star Maria Fowler who he described as “just an extra” when she tried to get involved in an argument between him and then ex-girlfriend Lauren.
He left after the third series aired but re-joined in series eight – before leaving again in series nine after claiming that it just wasn’t the same anymore.
Kirk is a father to two children, daughter Violett and son Harry.
Kirk and his ex-girlfriend Holli Willis welcomed their first child, a daughter named Violett, in February 2016.
He shares his son with Danielle Carr, who was born in 2017.
Keen reality TV fans will have also seen Kirk on Celebrity Big Brother series nine.
He shared the famous house with X-Factor bad boy Frankie Cocozza and eventual winner and “loose woman” Denise Welch.
He was evicted from the house on day 16 after receiving the fewest votes to be saved by the public.
In 2015 Kirk joined the third season of Ex On The Beach.
However Kirk decided to take a step away from the limelight a few years later to live a more normal life away from the cameras.
In 2018, Kirk started labouring before laying phone cables for BT, and now runs KN Jet Services in Essex, a jet-washing and drain-cleaning company.
And last year he told The Sun that he couldn’t be happier, saying: I realise working up a ladder clearing drains and jet-washing driveways isn’t as glamorous as being on the telly.
“But I wouldn’t swap things for the world. I am so glad. I am away from that life now.”
