The Only Way Is Essex regulars Lauren Goodger and Jessica Wright were best friends until their huge on-screen bust-up at the start of the year.

The girls fell out in spectacular style, but thanks to James ‘Arg’ Argent they’ve taken the first step towards becoming friends again. In tonight’s episode (ITV2, 10pm), Arg surprises Jessica and her mum Carol by bringing Lauren along for some drinks.

“I've not come here to think everything will be hunky dory - I just want to draw a line under everything that's happened,” Lauren tells Jess and Carol.

“Me and you had a massive bond you were part of my best friends for 10 years and then all this happened and I just feel like its just all dead,”  a teary Jess tells Lauren.

“It's a horrible situation that should never have happened. Hopefully one day it will be back to the way it was,”  Jess continues.

“No one is wrong and no one is right - I just can't live like this anymore,” Lauren tells them.

Cue plenty of blubbing from Jessica and Lauren.

You’ve been dumped by two Laurens

While Jess and Lauren have their emotional heart-to-heart, Tom P talks about his love life and his bad luck with Laurens.

“You've been dumped by Lauren G haven't you?” asks Billie

“To be fair she sort of beat me to it, cos we both said it wasn’t going anywhere," admits Tom P

“You've now been dumped by two Laurens," laughs Sam.

“Actually if you ever see me taking to another Lauren....just drag me away," says Tom P

“Problem is they're too old for you mate - they're like 30 - know what I mean" Joey helpful chips in.
