Sources close to the couple tell The Sun the argument stemmed from an argument over James' recent weight gain which led to their break-up.

A source said: "They had a big bust-up and Gemma said James was an embarrassment to be around after he began putting on a lot of weight again.

"At the moment Gemma is determined to get on with her life and wants to be alone without any visits from James."

A spokesman for Gemma Collins confirmed: "Gemma had no choice but to end the relationship. There will be no further comment."

Gemma was seen in Manchester this morning arriving for filming looking downcast.

The source added: "She's pretty cut up about it but friends are saying that they wouldn't be surprised if they got back together, considering their history."

Gemma dumped James back in February after he posted a video of her snoring, then told her she had “more rolls than Greggs”.

The mortified Dancing On Ice star was also called a “fat joke” by long-term lover Arg.

She kicked the Towie star out of her Essex home after he shared a clip online of her fast asleep - and pictures later emerged of him desperately trying to get back in.

Arg then blitzed Gemma with a string of messages about her weight, telling her: “You are a fat joke of a woman. An absolute car crash! You’re nearly 40 f***ing years old, you embarrassment.”

Gemma asked her on-off boyfriend of seven years to “please leave my home today”.

But he continued: “You fat horrible lump. Nasty mean woman. Who the f*** do you think you are? You’ve got more rolls than Greggs.”

The pair got back together at the start of last month after a trip to Paris.
