James Argent is 'desperate to get Gemma Collins back' after savage hippo texts

James Argent reportedly is desperate to win Gemma Collins' heart over.

His vile texts calling the GC a "hippo" and a "fat f***" sent shockwaves through the reality circuit when they were leaked after news of their split.

It's claimed the couple haven't spoken to each other since the vicious texts, although Gemma did text Arg to apologise for making them public.

Former TOWIE bombshell Gemma was said to have cancelled her gig in Marbella amid fears her ex would turn up to try seduce her.

A source told The Daily Star : "The two have not spoken since they split for good after his awful texts.

"He is always desperate to keep the fire burning so is going to try and win her back by surprising her in Marbella. But it sounds like it may all end in tears, yet again."

Mirror Online has reached out to James Argent and Gemma Collins representatives for further comment.

But this time it's believed the couple have closed the chapter on their epic love story.

Break up aside, it's an exciting time for Gemma.
