He’s one of TOWIE’s longest-running cast members and, over the years, we’ve watched Diags – aka James Bennewith – grow up, become the boss of family business Plumb Point and find love with Jodie Wells.
Following his previous relationships and dalliances with the likes of Fran Parman and Demi Sims, it seemed like Diags had finally got his happily ever after when he invited Jodie and her son Bear to move in with him in Essex.
However, the move didn’t materialise and the plumber slash reality star admitted he needed to form a stronger bond with Bear before Jodie uprooted their lives. Now, in a move we didn’t expect, Diags and Jodie have sparked rumours they’ve SPLIT.
The TOWIE stars have seemingly unfollowed each other on Instagram, with Jodie also removing all traces of her relationship with Diags from her profile.
Not only that, but Jodie has also appeared to hint that she and Diags aren’t on the best of terms in a scathing TikTok post.
In a video that has been viewed over a quarter of million times, Jodie can be seen lip syncing to a sound that includes the words, ‘It’s because your son is a f**king p**sy.’
Naturally, her followers have assumed the clip is aimed at Diags, with one commenting, ‘Go Jodieeeee she left that man in the trash where he belongs.’
Another wrote, ‘Dramaaaaaa,’ while a third added, ‘Oh the shade.’
A quick glance at Jodie’s socials shows that she spent the festive period apart from Diags, celebrating Christmas with her ‘besties’ instead.
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to point out that Jodie and Diags had unfollowed each other in the comments section under one of her posts, with one quizzing her, ‘Omg why have you and Diags unfollowed each other??
‘Don’t say you’ve split up!!!’
Diags and Jodie’s representatives have been contacted for comment.
