The 25-year-old star of the ITVBe show has confessed he and his co-stars are worried Arg, 27, could fall back in to old habits after his girlfriend Lydia Bright revealed he'd been out drinking following his stint in rehab in December last week.
Lewis said: "She was very angry at the time and she came and spoke to me about it.I said, 'Arg needs support from everyone. It's not your burden to carry solely on your own'. It's a big worry for us all, but as a friendship group we need to be dilligent and make sure he's OK."
Lewis claimed, however, that he thinks Arg's relapse was just a one off as they've been busy working out together ever since.
He explained: "He promised us it was just one night out. He's been with me in the gym every day this week, and if he was drinking he certainly wouldn't be able to do the workouts I'm putting him through."
And the Essex lad is hoping to see his close pals - who celebrated their seven year anniversary earlier this month - tie the knot soon.
Lewis continued: "Hopefully we're going to see something interesting happening in the next six months. I had a heart-to-heart with Lydia and she said, 'I think it's time for us to take it to the next level'."
Asked if he sees marriage on the cards, he added to Star magazine: "Without a shadow of a doubt. The word love gets thrown around a lot, but that's what those two share. I can't wait for the wedding!"
