The TOWIE stars had spent the night together before Lydia's interview with the Mail, and she appeared a bit more uncomfortable about it than is normal considering they're supposed to be a couple. And considering they totally snogged in That Episode two months ago, teasing us with the possibility that maybe, just maybe, they'd get back together.
'It's not something that happens all the time,' she said. 'You have to bear in mind that while I saw James a lot when we filmed the last series, I haven't really seen him much since then. We've spent a lot of time apart. To be honest, if it weren't for the show, I don't know if we’d be in a place where we’d be thinking about getting back together.'
WHAT? SO IT'S NOT REAL? Blow us down with a feather.
'For all I know, we may have never bumped into each other again. But because of TOWIE, we find ourselves in these situations,' she went on to explain. It's sort of heartbreaking when you think that Arg has gone to bootcamp and lost weight, all the time while being pretty blatant about how he wants to get her back.
It's ever more heartbreaking when you take into account that Lydia hasn't even noticed the weight he's lost. 'It's hard because at the moment, I'm seeing him every day,' she added. 'I know he is training very hard at the moment but I haven't actually noticed a change in his size.'
Thankfully, though, it's not actually about the weight. It's about the Arg. 'When James' weight does fluctuate, it doesn't make me more or less attracted to him. For me, it's not about that. The reason I like spending time together is because we get along so well. We have a lot of chemistry.'
Yes but are they going out now? Is it all a sham? We're so confused.
One confusion that Lydia did clear up, though, is that nasty rumour going around that she made him keep his top on during sex because of his weight. 'That came out because the [TOWIE] boys were doing promotional interviews together while in a hot tub. When James got out, the boys were having a bit of banter and told him to put his top back on before I saw. So he jokingly replied "She always makes me keep my top on during sex". But he said that as a joke.'
Good, we were feeling for little Arg, so it's nice to know she's not mean to him. Even if our emotions are all over the place.
