James ‘Arg’ Argent is hoping to find his "future wife" in 2024.
James Argent is up for finding his 'future wife' in 2024 but isn't 'chasing it'
The 36-year-old TV star - who shot to fame after appearing in the reality show 'The Only Way Is Essex' - and his ex Stella Turian, 19, broke up in November after dating for a year, and James has now insisted he is "not chasing" a new romance, but would welcome finding his future wife if it happened.
During an appearance on 'Lorraine' on Tuesday (09.01.24), where the host Lorraine Kelly asked if he was ready to get back on the dating scene, he said: "I'm not looking for it - if it happens, sure. I'm not chasing it."
The TV personality then joked he hoped women might find him more attractive after his appearance in the Channel 4 show 'Celeb Cooking School', where he - and others, including 'Made In Chelsea' star Liv Bentley, 'Geordie Shore's Scotty T, rapper Nadia Rose and dancing legend Louie Spence - learn culinary skills from Michelin-starred chef Giorgio Locatelli.
James explained: "They say women like a man who cooks, so that might make me more attractive."
Arg - who previously dated fellow 'TOWIE' stars Lydia Bright and Gemma Collins - insisted there was no hard feelings with any of his exes.
He said: "All three of them, I can say they're my mates now."
James also shared his other aspirations for 2024, including passing his driving test.
He said: "My number-one goal is to finally, after 36 years of my life, pass my driving test and theory test.
"That is going to be my goal and I really believe I can do it. I’ve got my weight off - I’m starting to tone up now - and I’ve been clean and sober coming up for two years.
"The Arg Band is absolutely flying … I’m living my dreams. But two other things I really want to achieve are driving and potentially meeting my future wife, the mother of my kids."
