Gemma Collins threw Arg's bags out of their flat after recent row


James ‘Arg’ Argent has said his bags were thrown out of the flat he shares with Gemma Collins after he shared a video of the reality star snoring in bed.

The Only Way Is Essex star was ejected from their home after posting the clip to his Instagram story.

He told ITV’s Good Morning Britain he had been inspired by the post Joe Swash had shared of Stacey Solomon sleeping, but that it had backfired.

He said: “She was furious, I was kicked out of the flat, we didn’t get physical with each other but my bags were chucked out, we did get a bit personal.”

Argent admitted he sent Collins unpleasant texts about her weight during the row, saying: “It was pot, kettle, black, I’m a hypocrite.

“I struggle with my weight, I’m the biggest I’ve ever been. Gemma has lost weight doing Dancing On Ice, she looks the best she’s ever been.

“We both started cussing each other, that doesn’t excuse anything. It was very childish, it wasn’t in my nature, we both were cussing each other and it was silly.”

However, Argent confirmed the couple are now back together, saying: “I’m absolutely on (with Collins), we are OK.

“We have had a bit of a tough time recently, but we are on.”

Asked by Piers Morgan if he had ever proposed to Collins or would consider proposing, he said: “I’ve never proposed to Gemma, I think if we remain stable and we are in a healthy place, it’s definitely something I would consider.”

Argent also confirmed he would like to take part on Dancing On Ice after Collins participated this year.

He said: “Nothing has been signed but I’m a big big fan of the show. I did feel part of it because I was there most weeks.

“I’ve had a little go on the ice.”
