Lydia Bright takes ex James Argent's new Tinder snaps - but fans beg them to get back together
Former The Only Way Is Essex stars Lydia Bright and James 'Arg' Argent have sent fans into meltdown as they reunited for a photoshoot. The couple dated from 2007 until 2012, before briefly rekindling their romance between 2015 and 2016.
However, despite things not working out romantically between them, Lydia, 33, and Arg, 36, have remained close friends - so much so that Lydia has even been helping Arg shoot some new photos for his dating app profiles.
Earlier this week, Arg sent fans wild with a series of photos shared on his Instagram page, where he could be seen flaunting his toned arms and showing off his incredible weight loss in a series of photos. Now, it's been revealed that Lydia was the photographer behind the snaps, as she shared a look behind-the-scenes of the photoshoot on TikTok. Captioning the video, Lydia wrote: "Let’s get Arg on Tinder…"
But fans weren't keen on this idea, and raced to the comments to interject, insisting that the pair should rekindle their old flame. One person wrote: "Please get back together, leave Tinder alone."
Another said: "No you need to just get married as so love you both." Meanwhile, a third added: "He still loves you the look in his eye."
It comes after reports that Lydia has bagged herself a new man, and the reality TV star has already introduced him to other fellow The Only Way Is Essex stars, including ex-boyfriend Arg.
The mum of one was spotted "passionately kissing" her new beau - a landscape gardener named Ben Davies - at Sheesh restaurant in Chigwell on Thursday, 28 March, reports MailOnline. Lydia and Ben didn't try to play down their romance in front of fellow partygoers, with the mum-of-one unable to "keep her hands off" her new man.
Arg, was performing with his band, The Arg Band, at Sheesh on the same evening. He regularly takes to the stage at celebrity hotspot.
Lydia's last public relationship was with boyfriend Lee Cronin. The pair share daughter Loretta, four, but split before she was born. Meanwhile, Arg is also newly single after splitting from Italian actress Stella Turian, who is 17 years his junior. The couple began dating in 2022 but split towards the end of last year.
A source told MailOnline that Lydia also introduced Ben to fellow TOWIE star Dan Edgar, as well as Love Island's Georgia Harrison and Geordie Shore's Sophie Kasaei. The couple were allegedly standing in the front row while Arg - who previously dated Lydia for five years - performed.
A source told the publication: "Lydia couldn't keep her hands off Ben… and she certainly didn't seem to mind that her ex was just a few feet away. They were passionately kissing right in front of where James was performing with The Arg Band, which didn't go unnoticed by other guests at the event."
