They ultimately went their separate ways five years ago, with Arg going on to have a similarly turbulent romance with fellow Towie co-star Gemma Collins.

And 30-year-old Lydia has now revealed that there is no bad blood between them, opening up about their current relationship during an Instagram Q&A today.

A fan had asked: "Do you and Arg still speak?"

The blonde beauty replied: "Yes, we are very good friends.

Lydia and Arg were childhood sweethearts, first striking up a romance when they were teens and it carrying onto TV screens across the country in Towie.

In 2016, The Sun reported that they had split for good after she allegedly caught him using cocaine after he relapsed following a stint in rehab.

Meanwhile, Arg and Gemma suffered another bitter split last year due to his addiction to cocaine, but The Sun revealed last month that they are back together after he went to rehab again.
