James 'Arg' Argent and Helen Flanagan
James 'Arg' Argent helped Helen Flanagan deal with her heartache while filming 'Celebrity Super Spa'.
The 'Only Way is Essex' star admits he was there for the former 'Coronation Street' actress - who recently split from footballer Scott Sinclair - when she was feeling low, and he enjoyed becoming "really, really close" to the 23-year-old stunner on the reality show.
He exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "We were there for each other, really. There were plenty of nights where we went out and had a few drinks then came back and had deep chats.
"We'd talk to each other about stuff and we just became really, really close and could really open up to each other about anything.
"If she had any issues then she could tell me and the same for me with her."
While Arg was "flattered" at being romantically linked to the blonde beauty, he insists there is a chance they could hook up at some point in the future.
When asked if the pair might start dating, he said: "I think stranger things have happened. You never know, anything could happen.
"I was very flattered by the romance rumours. Obviously Helen is a very attractive, sexy, gorgeous girl and we did get on very, very well."
'Celebrity Super Spa' - which centres on six celebrities who work in a spa in Liverpool, where they carry out various treatments, from plucking to pampering, on members of the public - airs on Friday September 14 at 10pm on Channel 5.
