James Argent and Gemma Collins are living together.
The ‘TOWIE’ original – who first appeared on the show when it launched in 2010 – and his co-star have had an on/off relationship over the years, but he has revealed they are "very happy" together as he joked "the locks haven’t been changed in ages".
After letting slip about their living arrangements on ‘Loose Women’, Arg added: "It’s been a year since we’ve got quite serious, and we’re very happy and I love her.
"I’m very proud of her and I can’t wait for her to do ‘Dancing On Ice’ in January. I think she’s gonna shock the world!"
The panel on the ITV daytime show picked up on a hint as the 30-year-old reality star opened up about his 37-year-old girlfriend’s preparations for the ice skating show.
He said: "I know when she’s worked really hard if she comes in and she’s all lairy and giving it to me a little bit, then I know she hasn’t worked that hard.
"But the last few weeks, she comes home and she’s really chilled and quiet – and that’s when I know."
Although wedding bells aren’t on the horizon for the couple just yet, Arg revealed he could return to ‘TOWIE’ in 2019 after taking some time off to deal with personal issues.
He also opened up about his recent injury which saw him fracture his shoulder in a moped accident, and stalled his weight loss efforts.
He admitted: "I’d been at Boot Camp, I’d got a nice bit of weight off and I thought I’m going really continue it. It’s knocked me back for six, so all that weight I lost I’ve put back on. That’s my excuse, anyway."
