Reality TV favourite James 'Arg' Argent looked incredible as he rocked a dapper suit at his friend and TOWIE co-star Danielle Armstrong's wedding. Arg and fellow The Only Way Is Essex stars were out in force to cheer on the blushing bride on as she said 'I do' with her groom Tommy Edney.
Fans gasped as they clapped eyes on Arg, who posed in a stylish plum-coloured suit and matching tie, after he lost 14 stone following gastric sleeve surgery. Arg looked like a Hollywood leading man as he sat alongside Ferne McCann who dazzled in a pale pink maxi dress and oversized purple-tinted sunglasses.
Arg also smiled as he soaked up the sunshine with Tommy Mallett and Georgia Kousoulou at the ceremony in Hertfordshire. As he shared a collection of snaps from the big day on his Instagram he wrote: "My wonderful friend @daniellearmstrong88 got married to the lucky & lovely @tommyedney. Beautiful bride & beautiful Couple. What a truly amazing day filled with Joy #AllYouNeedIsLove."

In June Arg, who was previously 27 stone, confidently wore a brightly patterned shirt as he celebrated his new look. He typed: "I truly accept & trust myself, I really have a sense of control in my life. I know my strengths & weaknesses well, I finally have a positive view of myself.
"I like being different & I can handle criticism. Not everyone is going to like my style or the way I dress but I’ve lost 14 stone in weight so I’m entitled to wear whatever the hell I want."
Back in January he opened up to fans as he shared dramatic before and after photos. "Nine months ago I dreamed of having THAT @adele moment & here it is," he said.
"After being 27 stone, depressed and having doctors telling me I was on 'death row' I made the decision to have gastric sleeve surgery with @wearetransform which reduced the size of my stomach and limited how much I could eat.
"I’ve since lost a total of 13 stone and now weigh 14 stone which surpassed all expectations. I’ve never felt happier or healthier. I can honestly say that it was the best decision I've ever made. It spurred me on to be serious about my eating habits and exercise."
The star, who attempted to swim the English Channel on the Channel Four show Sink or Swim in 2019, said the challenge was still on the cards after his weight loss. He explained: "Since my surgery, I’ve followed the advice from the team at Transform Hospital Group and stuck to a healthy diet with smaller portion sizes. I’ve also been training in the gym to make my body stronger. That swim across the English Channel is still on the cards.
"I’d like to thank everyone who has helped me on my weight loss journey. When I look in the mirror, I’m finally happy with the man looking back at me. I’m delighted to be starting 2022 as the best version of me. The future is looking bright, and I can’t wait to live it."
