Ex-TOWIE star James Argent is happy for his old flame Gemma Collins but doesn’t want to make her big day awkward, a source tells new

Gemma’s former TOWIE co-stars are welcome at her wedding

Wedding bells are set to ring for Gemma Collins and her fiancé Rami Hawash, and one person in particular who is pleased for them is her ex James Argent.

Gemma, 43, and Arg met on The Only Way Is Essexin 2011, and they dated on and off for nine years.

Now, a reunion could be on the cards, with Gemma revealing that the cast of TOWIE could be making an appearance at her wedding, with an invitation extended to all of them.

She said, “I’d love to see Chloe Sims there. Everyone from the show is more than welcome to come, actually – there’s no bad blood between us.”

However, according to a source, Arg, 36, couldn’t believe he may be on the guest list and Gemma’s kind gesture has given him a lot to think about.

“Arg was shocked to hear that the entire cast of TOWIE might be invited to Gemma’s wedding,” the source claimed. “It was generous of her to say it, but if that were to include him along with everyone else, it could be a bit awkward.

“He would have a dilemma on his hands. He is very happy for Gemma, though, and a part of him really wants to share her happy day. He also wouldn’t want to look petty by not turning up if invited.”

Arg has said in the past that he is “friends” with Gemma and, given their past, they are “always going to be close”. Now, according to our source, he is rooting for her happiness.

“There’s no denying they’ve had many ups and downs, but Arg wouldn’t want to make it difficult in any way or bring up any memories of their past,” the source said. “He couldn’t be happier for Gemma now that she’s getting married – it’s all she’s ever wanted.”

There were claims of savage text messages during Gemma and Arg’s turbulent relationship, and their romance suffered because of Arg’s cocaine addiction. But with a gorgeous platinum ring now on her finger, Gemma has firmly moved on and is happier than ever with businessman Rami, 49. The Diva Foreverstar told new, “He’s finally put a ring on it. It was the best surprise when Rami proposed… I wouldn’t change a thing. We’ve been in a bubble ever since.”

As Gemma lives her best life by planning no less than three different wedding ceremonies, our source said it could be difficult for Arg to watch from the sidelines.
