James Argent lands job presenting Good Morning Britain

James Argent has landed his dream job of presenting Good Morning Britain.

The former Towie star, 31, is taking over as host of the entertainment slot on the show tomorrow.

In a post on Instagram today, Arg confirmed he's filling in for Richard Arnold while the regular showbiz presenter is away on holiday.

Arg wrote: "Tomorrow I’m presenting on @gmb for the very first time and filling in for the legendary @tvsrichardarnold ...What’s the worst that could happen!?

"Tune in from 6am! #happyeaster x."

The reality star's girlfriend Gemma Collins also threw her support behind her man and urged fans to watch his presenting slot.

She wrote: "Catch my very handsome @real_arg PRESENTING on @gmb tomorrow morning #showbizsection #soproudofyou we’ve had a lovely Easter... now back to work."

Arg's GMB debut comes while regular host Piers Morgan is away on holiday.

Piers has previously been vocal about his hatred of many reality stars, and he was previously left fuming when producers booked some Love Island stars for the showbiz slot while he was away.

Back in 2017, GMB producers hired Amber Davies and Kem Cetinay to host the entertainment reports during Piers' summer break.

However, their presenting turn didn't last long, with Kem insisting he didn't want to do it again because it was "too hard".

The couple's relationship didn't last long either and they broke up just weeks later.

They had won Love Island just weeks before taking on the GMB challenge.
