OHMYGOSSIP — James ‘Arg’ Argent is reportedly looking to reunite with Lydia Bright.
The 33-year-old star – who split from on/off girlfriend Gemma Collins last summer – is said to have met up with his former flame on a number of occasions recently as he looks to rekindle their romance.
An insider told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “The pair have started to meet up and Arg is very keen to start something up again.
“Lydia is a little more coy though. It’s something Arg wants to happen as she was the love of his life.”
The ‘TOWIE’ star is said to be keener than Lydia, 30, and he may have to prove “he’s a new man”.
A source added: “Arg is trying work his way back in but Lydia isn’t daft. Arg has had his issues and she’s a mum now.
“This weight loss battle is a good way for Arg to prove to Lydia he’s a new man and all that is behind him.”
Last month, Arg revealed he had lost two and a half stone since having gastric sleeve surgery, after he had reached 27 stone and been told by doctors he must lose weight or risk dying.
And he recently explained he and his ex were “extremely close again”, having first dated in their teens and enjoyed an eight-year relationship, part of which was shown on ‘The Only Way Is Essex’.
He recently said: “Me and Lydia are extremely close again – we have kept that low-key and behind closed doors.
“Obviously she’s had a beautiful baby and she’s a single mother now. We were together years before ‘TOWIE’ existed or before either of us were in the public eye.
“She’s a real friend and she and her mum have been an incredible support to me. I’m very fond of Lydia. I’m lucky to have her in my life and for us to be such close friends.”
