Gemma Collins and James Argent reunited for a dinner on Thursday just three months after a bitter split, in which Arg bombarded The GC with nasty text messages.
The former TOWIE stars enjoyed a meal out at Circolo Popolare in London for a quiet night out with Gemma’s nephews.
Gemma, 39, reportedly arrived at the restaurant with her nephews, before they joined Arg, 32, who had been waiting at a table, according to Mirror Online.
A source told the publication: “Gemma was with her nephews and they entered the restaurant together, while Arg was already there and they went to join him at the table.

“At first she sat next to Argy but they later swapped and sat opposite each other with her nephew between them.”
The duo reportedly “looked pretty close” and appeared to be enjoying their time together.
The source added: “Arg was laughing and chatting with Gemma and her family.”
The Diva Forever and Ever star reportedly turned up without a coronavirus face mask, before asking restaurant staff for one so she could be seated.

Everyone in the UK now has to wear a face covering in indoor spaces including in restaurants, unless they are seated at their table.
The surprise reality star reunion comes after Gemma leaked messages from her ex that saw him label her a “hippo” and a “fat f***”.
They first started seeing each other around 10 years ago on The Only Way Is Essex.
But their romance has had major ups and downs, with them splitting up and getting back together more times than anyone can remember.
It’s thought it all came crashing down after Arg asked for them to open their relationship up.
Gemma said she was “absolutely heartbroken” over their most recent split as she shared screenshots of their text messages.
She had supported Arg through his drug issues, after he admitted to relying on cocaine for seven years and had almost died twice from overdoses.
He managed to get clean with the help of Gemma and close friends like Mark Wright, spending time in rehabilitation facilities.
