Gemma Collins has claimed James Argent called her a ‘hippo’, a ‘pig’ and branded her a ‘fat f***’ in a series of WhatsApp messages leaked to her Instagram account.
The reality TV star, 39, shared the screengrabs with her 1.9m followers on the social network before deleting them just hours later.
The duo locked horns after Gemma asked Arg to book a holiday.
While it is not clear how the conversation began, in the first screenshot the starlet shared she fumes: “I’ll take a mate.
“I’m not booking it. You said you would be a gentleman.”
Escalating the row, Arg replied: “You fat f***.
“I’ve just lost another 2000.”
A second screenshot starting half an hour later shows the row continuing – this time clashing over Arg allegedly paying for dinner with another woman.
Gemma hit out: “What man pays for another woman!!!”

Within a minute Arg simply responds: “Insensitive.”
Not stopping there, Gemma continues: “And the woman that saved your life has to pay for herself!!!”
Arg then hits back: “You are supposed to be treating me you hippo.”
The messages was circled in red by Gemma before she uploaded it to show her fans.
The chat ends with Gemma declaring: “We’re over.”
On a third post, the outspoken diva wrote: “Hey guys as you can imagine I am absolutely heartbroken right now, shocked and totally in pain and can’t be pretending I’m all smiles of the gram.[sic]”

Gemma continued: “I am so upset and devastate and hurt, I need some time off the gram to heal x”
Gemma’s decision to reveal the messages comes amid speculation they split because Arg ‘wanted an open relationship’.
An open relationship is when two people are both committed to each other but are allowed to be sexually active with others – either independently or together.

A source told The Sun: “Arg went to Spain and he told Gemma that he wants to go back there forever and be in an open relationship like Jada and Will.
“Gemma is completely shocked and has been left absolutely heartbroken, especially after sticking by him for so long.
“He said that he wants to stay in Spain for good which is worrying as he is known to have suffered relapses there in the past.
“Gemma was devastated by the conversation and decided to end their relationship entirely – she feels like she had no choice but to walk away.”
A rep for Gemma Collins declined to comment.
A rep for James Argent has been contacted by Daily Star Online for comment.
