James 'Arg' Argent is back in rehab.
James Argent
The 30-year-old 'The Only Way Is Essex' star spent three months in a facility in Thailand over the festive season in 2016 in a bid to curb his wild ways and has revealed that he has checked himself in to a programme in order to get the "ongoing support" he needs.
Arg - who has also spent time in The Priory for alleged drink and drug issues in 2014 - told MirrorOnline: "It's not been an easy time but I'm happy to be back in a programme that gives me the ongoing support I need.
"I'm thankful for the incredible support I have received from my family, close friends and colleagues."
Arg recently split from on/off girlfriend Gemma Collins, 37, and his issues are said to have put a "huge strain on their relationship".
And he will be taking time out from filming 'TOWIE' in order to focus on his health.
A source told The Sun Online: "James was under a dark cloud recently and has made the brave decision to enter back into a programme to help him get back on track.
"He has been attending regular therapy and secondary care at an outpatient treatment facility in London.
"James told his family and friends he wouldn't be starting filming with this series of 'TOWIE'.
"He's being supported by the show's producers who have agreed he needs to take time out to focus on himself."
