The Only Way is Essex- Lydia confronts Amy about her feelings for Arg

Lydia made a surprise visit to Amy's salon on last night's episode to find out the truth about the salon owner and her ex James.

Earlier in the day, while on a run in the park, Lydia told friend Ellie that she wants to get to the bottom of things as the rumours about James cheating are eating away at her, and needs to get it straight from the horse's mouth, the horse being Amy.

Lydia told Amy that she is 'sooo confused' as she doesn't know what is going on with her (Amy) and James, claiming that they are very tactile and flirtatious with each other. Amy admitted that she has a soft spot for James and she does flirt with him, but she flirts with everyone.

'You don't like it as it's another girl with Arg', Amy told Lydia. 'He needs a bit of flirting', she said. Lydia seemed surprised Amy had confessed to having a soft spot for James and said she came to speak to her to get some answers.

Amy said she doesn't fancy Arg, but Lydia said she was 'rubbishing things', by tweeting that she had dinner with James the other day. Lydia said James knew she would read it so he re-tweeted that he had dinner with Amy and everyone else.

'It shows how immature yous two are', said Amy. 'I'm glad I'm not immature.' 'You obviously are', replied Lydia and walked out of the salon.

However, it seems Lydia's luck may be turning as she bumped into a mysterious guy outside an Essex bar when leaving. Is this the dream man that Gemma promised her?

The Only Way is Essex- James tries to fix his broken relationship with Lydia

Arg told Lydia's mum Debbie, aka the mother-in-law from hell, that he would get things sorted after they bumped into each other on last night's episode, and she informed him that her daughter is in pieces over his alleged cheating.

Debbie claimed that Lydia cries all the time, won't eat and doesn't want to step outside of the house. When she asked James if there is any truth to he rumours he quickly said no. But Debbie said then she couldn't understand why people close to him have started the rumours? James claimed it's because of his bubbly personality, but Debbie didn't seem convinced.

'We- me, you and Lydia, have to get to the bottom of this', she said. 'I'll get it sorted', replied James. 'You do that', said Debbie.

Although, in an earlier conversation Lydia had with Lucy, she made it clear that she thought James is lying. She told Lucy how she had made a mistake and slept with 'Arg' after getting drunk. 'I'm soooo embarrassed', she admitted. Lucy asked her how she felt about the situation. 'Confused, hurt and embarrassed', she said. Lucy told her she would have to decide what her feelings are for James before doing anything like that again, and said she thought that Lydia didn't want to be with him right now. Lydia agreed.

And it seems like Lydia's dream might come true, after Gemma read her tarot cards at Kirk's birthday party and told her she will meet a new man very soon. She also said that Lydia would find something out that would piss her off. Lydia told Gemma that she felt finding a new man would be the perfect way to get over James, a guy that wows her and makes her see how bad it was with Arg.

At the same time, James confronted Sam and Billie over the rumours they have been spreading that he has cheated on Lydia, despite Mark warning him before not to as girls all stick together and not to trust anyone.

Arg told Billie and Sam that he had worked it out who told Lydia that he had cheated as they had been 'off-ish', with him and he had put two and two together. But he thought they were closer to him than Lydia?

Sam said they were but had to say something as Lydia was upset. James admitted to them he had done things wrong but never actually done anything with other girls.

'We're not being shit stirrers but we hear rumours', said Billie. Arg challenged them to name an incident. Billie told him she had heard he had oral sex in a club?  James laughed and said that's not the type of thing he would do.

'There's no smoke without fire', said Billie. 'You need to be truthful, but you're not going to be are you?'
