James Argent parties at celebrity friend’s wedding as Mark Wright’s mum shares support following domestic violence charge

His best pal Mark hasn’t commented on his friend’s arrest

James Argent celebrated Megan McKenna’s wedding over the weekend, just hours after his ex girlfriend shared a statement following his arrest for domestic violence.

James Argent, commonly known as ‘Arg’, admitted to the abuse at a court in Spain, where he received a six-month suspended prison sentence and a two-year restraining order. It was alleged that James pushed his ex-girlfriend down a flight of stairs while they were in a relationship, causing serious injuries. 

Now, after sharing a snap of himself and Megan at the wedding, he’s received support from Mark Wright’s mum Carol…

What has Nicoline Artursson said about James Argent abuse?

Nicoline Artursson broke her silence on Friday evening following his court admission.

In a heartbreaking statement, Nicoline revealed what happened between the pair. She wrote: “I was brutally thrown out of our new home in the middle of the night wearing only my pyjamas.

“I opened the door to let him in and only minutes after I found myself laying down on the stairs outside our house. My clothes and belongings were being thrown out from the balcony down on me. I was injured.”

However, Nicoline went on to explain that “a gentleman” does not do those things, before adding that she has “cried so many tears” over what has happened between them.

She wrote: “Life is simply not a reality TV show, life is real. I have tried to understand why. I have cried so many tears thinking about the way he chose to hurt me. He said he loved me and I believed him. And here we are.”

But hours later, the 37 year old was partying at former TOWIE co-star Megan McKenna’s wedding.

Taking to Instagram, James posted a video of himself and Megan dancing at the wedding party.

He wrote: “Congratulations to the beautiful bride, my dear friend Megan McKenna, who got married to the lovely Oliver Burke yesterday. I can’t tell you how much it meant to me that you wanted me there on your special wedding day. We danced together just like old times in Nu Bar Loughton when we were kids.

“We always supported each other in those TOWIE days and remained friends ever since. You have blossomed into an amazing woman. You are a fantastic mum and you’re going to make a great wife! And a much better singer than me. Love ya!”

He then shared a black-and-white snap of him and Megan posing for the camera together.

Carol Wright shares her support

Since the news broke, James has turned off his Instagram comments, so only people he follows can respond.

One of those followers was Carol Wright – mother of James’ long-time best pal and new dad Mark Wright.

Mark – dad to baby Palma with wife Michelle Keegan – has so far remained tight-lipped on his friendship with Arg following the incident. But Carol has given disgraced Arg a show of support.

She posted in the comments section of his video with Megan: “Love this. Xxx.” She also added three red love heart emojis and two high five emojis. Her comment was liked more than 150 times.
