TOWIE’s Gemma Collins admits she tried to ‘trap’ Arg

Oh Gemma!

During the early days of TOWIE Gemma Collins and James ‘Arg’ Argent were a much-loved couple as they looked adorable together and were both funny to watch on screen.

So when they broke up a few years ago it was pretty sad, but they seem to have remained good friends and Gemma didn’t mind opening up about something quite naughty.

On today’s Loose Women she admitted to trying to trap Arg by getting pregnant without telling him.

And the worst bit? They weren’t even in a relationship at the time!

When the two got saucy together in Marbella last October, Gemma said she didn’t tell him that she had stopped taking the contraceptive pill and she hoped to get pregnant.

She admitted that looking back now, she knows it was wrong of her to try and get pregnant without telling him.

Gemma told the Loose Women: “I deliberately didn’t use contraception so when my period came I was disappointed.

“It weren’t the right thing to do, but I was going through a bit of a funny time and I really wanted a baby.”

She later added: “What I did was a bit much, but it was because I knew him. It sounds a bit crazy but I’m out of that now. You don’t have to trap a man.”

She did tell Arg eventually about what she had been trying to do.

The 36-year-old revealed: “He didn’t know at the time! But he does now.

“I apologised afterwards. We met in Marbella and I said, ‘Arg, can we talk over paella for two?’

“The way to chill him out is with food. He was really mad but we hugged it out and we’re okay now.”

She added: “I’m officially single, and last year I was in a place where I really wanted a baby and I felt so unfulfilled, and for the first time in my life I don’t crave a man.”

Gemma wasn’t the only one to admit to some baby related heartbreak on Loose Women, as Katie Price told the ladies earlier this week that she had suffered a recent miscarriage.

Katie said she had a miscarriage four days before finding out that husband Kieran Hayler had been cheating on her with the children’s nanny Nikki Brown.

She was on the show with her mum Amy who was recently diagnosed with a terminal lung condition.

Katie said: “…And I had a miscarriage four days before. On the Monday I had a miscarriage. Four days later I found out. Now this one – Jesus!”

Amy has been diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and may only have three to five years to live – however treatment could prolong this.

Katie revealed the tragic news on Twitter last week.
