Jessica And Mark Wright’s Little Sister Natalya Rules Out Reality TV

Her older siblings Jessica and Mark Wright found fame after appearing on The Only Way Is Essex, but 16-year-old Natalya has revealed that she has no intention of joining the ITVBe reality show.

The youngest member of the Wright clan has revealed that she would rather make her name through modelling or acting, despite family members (including her own parents and late grandmother) appearing on TOWIE.

Opening up about her decision, Nat – who is the spitting image of her sister Jess – told OK! Magazine: “I was only ten when they started!

“We didn’t really think much of it at the beginning and just found it funny but gradually the older girls at school would ask me for pictures of Mark. I’m really shy so I found it a bit embarrassing but no one was ever mean to me about it.”

The teen went on to admit that she was asked to be on the show but politely declined the offer, as she admitted: “It’s just not me.”

She added: “I’ve seen what it’s like when people come up to Jess all the time asking for pictures and I wouldn’t want that. I wouldn’t mind being famous but not for appearing on reality TV, maybe for modelling or acting.”

Jess, 30, supported her career choice and chimed in: “Natalya’s much more shy than me.”

Speaking from her Chigwell home, Jess – who announced that she was stepping out of the TOWIE spotlight in February – explained that Natalya has always been the baby of the family.

“My dad still calls her ‘baby’, so it’s hard to believe she’s actually 16,” she told the mag. “I was 14 when she was born, so I feel like I almost raised her with my parents.

“I remember thinking that I’d be 30 when she was 16 and how old that seemed.”

Jess also took the opportunity to hit back at rumours that she will be returning to the Essex-based reality series.

“I was filming a one-off with Bella and Bobby [Norris] as his dog Beau passed away. I’m definitely not going back – if anything, appearing with Bobby cemented why I wanted to leave. It was a brilliant period of my life but it’s done and dusted,” she said.
