James, 36, has been a cast member of The Only Way Is Essex for 10 years.
The former restaurant owner will be joined by his 26-year-old brother George Lock on the programme.
The new entrant enters the series at just the right time, as the cast have jetted off to Phuket in Thailand.
Previous episodes of the series have shown siblings to fall out such as Chloe and Charlie Sims.
But depsite the shows history, James told The Celeb Report he is looking forward to his younger brother joining the cast.
He admitted: “It is so nice to have him out here with me.
Me and all the boys on the show are like family. I have known all of them a long time. But with him here, I am buzzing.”
Towie has previously aired episodes that have been filmed in sunny from locations like Marbella and Ibiza.
But the Essex-based programme is truly going global, as bosses are filming the next instalment of the series in the most exotic location yet.
James was pictured jetting off abroad to Asia along with his older brother, who is 10 years his senior.
And The star thinks he could easily show his brother the ropes.
He said: “I can look after him and give him the experience.
“I have been on TOWIE 10 years now. I am probably the oldest now. I am the big brother to him, and everyone. I am the old head.”
George strolled in a tight-fitting grey t-shirt, black cargo trousers whilst sporting Jesus sandals.
The resemblance to his older sibling is clear, they both share a similar shoulder-length hairstyle styled into a middle parting.
James meanwhile, sported a cream shirt, black cropped trousers as well as similar shoes to his brother.
And although the pair might look similar to each other, James admits that they are completely different when it comes to personality.
He admitted: “He is very different for me. He is calm.
“Our family are happy with us and whatever we do.
“As long as we are not out partying too much like I was, they are happy with whatever we do.”
According to OK! magazine, the pair share a sister named Kelly and their parents are Margaret and Steve Lock.
Bosses have rumoured to have been longstanding fans of the family, according to the publication.
It’s been reported that production execs previously tried to recruit Steve for the show.
James rose to fame in the eighth series of the reality show, which used to follow his infamously tumultuous relationship with Danielle Armstrong.
But more recent scenes have involved his relationship Yazmin Oukhellou, who recently quit the UK to move to Dubai.
