They’ve remained close and last night looked cosy in a snap shared on Instagram at Sheesh restaurant in Chigwell.

Arg, 34, showed off his incredible 13 stone weight loss as he wrapped an arm around a glowing Lydia, 31, who stunned in a tiny crop top and high-waisted trousers.

The pair celebrated the launch of Arg’s new music venture, The Arg Band, and Lydia shared a video of her childhood sweetheart singing at the party.

She penned over the top: “So proud of you!”

Arg also posted a snap of the pair together and wrote alongside a red love heart: “Always supporting.”

Towie stars came out in force to support Arg, including fellow singer Megan McKenna who is set to perform at Glastonbury next month.

Denise Van Outen, Tommy Fury and Towie’s Gatsby were among the stars spotted in the crowd.

Arg has kept fans updated with his fitness journey and recently admitted that doctors had ordered him to put some weight back on.

He told The Sun back in February: “This is the first time in my life that I like the way I look too – I don’t feel ugly anymore – I’m content and happy with my appearance.

“The only problem now is I’ve lost a little bit too much weight and I need to put on half a stone,” he laughed.

“Everyone thinks it’s hilarious, we didn’t think we’d ever be in this situation but it’s one thing or another with me – that’s just me!”

He ballooned to 26st 13lb in 2020 after bingeing on junk food during the pandemic and had a £10,000 gastric sleeve operation last April after doctors warned him “lose weight or die.”
