GEMMA Collins’ ex-boyfriend James Argent jokingly demanded she call off her engagement to Rami Hawash on a boozy night out with pals.
Former Towie star Arg, 34, was pictured laughing while holding up a sign with “GC, call off the engagement!!!” scrawled across it as he watched the PDC World Darts Championship at London’s Alexandra Palace.
Jade Goody’s husband Jack Tweed pointed at the sign in hysterics while another friend beamed standing on a chair beside them.
The lads looked to be having a blast at the event, with pitchers of beer and pint cups lining their table.
Gemma, 40, confirmed she was once again engaged to Rami following an unsuccessful spell together in 2013.
She told the Times this week that the only reason she she hasn’t been shouting about it is because of Rami’s pending divorce from his wife.
She explained: “We can’t really come out and say anything yet because Ram was married before and his paperwork has not come through, so until that’s officially signed, we’ve not said anything.
“They’ve not been together for two years. I know her, she’s got a partner, she’s as good as gold.
“There’s a child involved, he’s only three, obviously I love him to death.
“But until that paperwork’s signed I can’t come out.”
Arg, who has lost a staggering 11 stone this year following life-saving gastric surgery, looked fit and healthy at Ally Pally wearing a navy jumper and jeans.
He and Gemma enjoyed a years-long on/off romance following her split from Rami in 2014.
It finally came to an end last year though when James revealed he wanted an open relationship after struggling with cocaine addiction.
And things turned nasty when Arg branded her a “hippo” in a mean WhatsApp exchange.
In her Times interview Gemma claimed to have saved recovering addict Arg’s life three times and received no thanks.
Arg recently told The Sun how he feared he was eating himself to death as his weight ballooned to 27stone following his drugs battle.
Now at a more healthy 15 stone 7lb, Arg confessed to bingeing on fast food, fizzy drinks and snacks before he turned to surgery.
He said: “Bingeing made me tired and lethargic so I’d make plans every day to meet friends, do a job or achieve something.
“But after I binged, I was so exhausted I’d end up just staying in bed and not leaving the house. Then one afternoon my mum found me in bed and started crying.
“She said, ‘I don’t recognise my son any more.’ That was a big wake-up call.
“Also, I reached the heaviest I’ve ever been in the height of the pandemic and doctors said I was dicing with death because I’ve got bad asthma and was morbidly obese, which was the worst possible combination if I was to catch Covid.”
“I could have been a goner, so I just knew I had to do something.”
Arg said his eating disorder spiralled out of control after beating his substance addictions, which saw him suffer two near-fatal overdoses.
