Sophie Kasaei, 35, first rose to fame in MTV‘s Geordie Shore before she joined her long-term partner Jordan Brook, 30, in The Only Way Is Essex.
They have long been open about their desire to have a baby and their struggles to conceive.
Together, they starred in their own reality show on MTV called Geordie Stories: Sophie’s Fertility Journey which chronicled their journey.
The pair both took to Instagram as they stood in the car drop off area of London‘s Stansted Airport.
This was before they jetted off to the Fertilysis clinic in the area of Attiki in Southern Greece.
Alongside the snap, they wrote an essay in the caption as they opened up about their journey.
The couple wrote: “After 28 months our fertility journey continues.
“Today we are heading to @fertilysis to start our first round of Lit therapy amongst other treatments. Our biggest leap forwards on our journey in what feels like forever.
“As a team we are taking every day, week and month as it comes. We will not give up.
“Thank you to every single friend, member of our families and everyone else who continues to reach out with kind words and support it really does mean the world.
“To those who are also in the same boat. Keep going. Keep communicating and keep exploring.”
Jordan previously urged men to open up about their emotions and praised his fellow male cast members for their support.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Jordan said: “Me and Sophie have a hell of a lot going on, especially with our fertility journey, that’ my main focus.
“As everyone knows from last series, it’s been a really tough time for both of us, I’m so proud of her and everything she’s done.
As a team we are taking every day, week and month as it comes. We will not give up.

“She was there supporting me, I had all my sperm tests done last series – the results were that were amazing.
“But sadly we’re still in the same position as we were last series, there’s no sign of a baby yet.
“It does get hard and there are a lot of couples out there going through what we’re going through.”
Cast support
The cast of Towie flooded the comments section with supportive messages for their co-stars.
Chloe Meadows gushed: “Love you both! Good luck,” with two love heart emojis.
Amber Turner remarked: “Love use! Good luck eeeek excited for you.”
Meanwhile, Harry Derbidge commented: “Love you both the world xx.”
As long-time star Amy Childs added: “Darling girl, good luck to you and Jordan love you both so much xxx. Good luck is coming your way xxxx.”
Battle to conceive
In September last year, Jordan revealed that Sophie was undergoing fertility tests.
This was after Sophie revealed she was going to have endometriosis surgery as they first revealed their struggles.
Sophie was first diagnosed with the chronic condition in 2020.
Endometriosis is when when tissue which is similar to the lining of the womb is found outside of the womb, which can sometimes cause damage to the Fallopian tubes or ovaries, leading to fertility problems.
