James ‘Arg’ Argent is planning to marry Gemma Collins next year if she accepts his "huge proposal".
The ‘TOWIE’ original – who first appeared on the reality show when it launched in 2010 – and his co-star have had an on/off relationship over the years, and after recently moving into together, the couple have revealed they are planning to take their relationship to the next level in 2019.
In a joint interview with OK! magazine, Arg, 30, spilled about his big plans to pop the question: "I’ve got a few ideas up my sleeve! I can’t tell you when but I’m definitely asking Gemma to be my wife next year.
"It’s going to be a huge proposal, I won’t be doing it by halves."
The ‘Dancing on Ice’ star – who is also known as ‘The GC’ – is expecting a "very romantic" proposal from her man.
She added: "It might surprise people but James is actually very romantic, so I know his proposal will be really well thought out."
Arg admitted that they could end up having "five weddings" because there are so many places close to their heart, including Marbella, Spain, where the pair shared their first love-making session.
He said: "We love the idea of getting married in Essex or Brighton as they’re both special places to us, or we might go abroad and do it in Italy or Spain.
"The first time we made love was in Marbella, so it would be nice to get married there. It’s going to be hard choosing just one place – we’ll probably end up having five wedding days."
It’s not just wedding bells that are in sight for the loved-up pair, as Gemma, 37, has revealed she wants to start a family with her future husband, but not until she’s in her forties.
She said: "I probably won’t have a baby until I’m at least 40, but I’m okay with that."
