James Argent's touching message to Gemma Collins as lovers isolate separately

The Only Way Is Essex’s James “Arg” Argent has pulled on his followers’ heartstrings with a touching message to his girlfriend, Gemma “The GC” Collins.

James, 32, has been left longing for his love while they self-isolate without each other as the UK enters its fifth week in lockdown.

The star shared a snap reality TV power couple looking loved-up on a bridge in Paris which overlooks the Eiffel Tower in the city of romance.

Gemma and James have been living apart as she continues to film a new fly-on-the wall show for ITV, aptly named Diva In Lockdown, from her Essex home.

Arg captioned his snap: “Lockdown absolutely sucks without you GC but I understand you have to entertain the nation and put a smile on people’s faces at this difficult time! #imissyou #wellmeetagain.”

He used a broken heart emoji to emphasise the message.

The singer is believed to have shed around 5stone in order to prepare for his wedding to The GC.

The pair are said to have put their plans to get hitched on ice in order for James to focus on his own health, a source revealed to Heat Magazine.

The source said: “Gemma wants them to start a family together ASAP.

“But she’s also taking his health into account and knows Arg getting better is more important than anything.”

Earlier this month, James shared a snap of himself out running wearing a Gemma meme sweater.

The star was instantly inundated with support from fans and celebs, with rocker Sam Fender commenting: “Legend.”

While Real Housewives of Cheshire’s Lauren Simon added: “Well done.”

Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison exclaimed: “OMG!! I’m so proud of you.”
