Towie’s James Argent looks almost unrecognisable in new slimline picture as he reveals he’s about to go on a date
Reality TV star boasts of hot date as he jokes he's a 'real life goodfella' after kicking his habits at a Thai rehab centre and shifting a huge amount of weight
TOWIE'S James "Arg" Argent shows off his incredible weight loss as he poses by a GoodFellas poster in an Instagram snap today — as he reveals he's heading out on a date.
The reality TV star, who turned his life around at a Thai rehab centre before returning in April, has shifted over a stone since starting his gruelling journey to peace and sobriety.
Now he's set to find love too, if his snap caption is to be believed: "I'm a real life #goodfella hahahahaha I hope my date is ready! 😜."
The single star, who split from girlfriend Lydia Bright in April 2016, is taking part in Celebs Go Dating which may be the reason why he is meeting up with someone.
The 29-year-old joins Towie's Bobby Norris, plus Calum Best, Charlotte Dawson and Frankie Cocozza on the new series of the love match show.
Arg, who celebrates his 30th birthday this year, is also rumoured to return to Towie soon after his pals campaigned to get him back on the programme — something which prompted Arg's ex Lydia to quit the show yesterday.
Regardless of whether he returns to the hit ITV structured reality series, Arg is keen to keep entertaining his fans as he took part in a charity football match with Dean Gaffney in Leicester recently.
The star looked fighting fit on the pitch during the game, which was organised by Katie Price and Jamie O'Hara.
Arg — who posted a throwback snap of him and Kate Wright this week — has also turned to God in an attempt to banish his demons for good.
