The 31-year-old reality TV star has been getting fitness tips from the 26-year-old boxer, and the athlete is reportedly being super strict.

An insider told The Daily Star newspaper: "Arg has been warned he is dangerously overweight and Charlie's taken him under his wing and is giving advice about how to get fit.

"He's not only sticking to a diet, he's got a new fitness regime - and Charlie is watching him like a hawk."

'TOWIE' star Arg recently joined a boxing gym after being warned he is on "death row" because of his weight gain.

James signed up for sessions at Peacock Gym in Canning Town, east London - where top British fighters such as Frank Bruno and Lennox Lewis have previously sparred - to train with boxer Anthony Yarde in an attempt to shed some pounds.

Meanwhile, 'Celebs on The Farm' features eight celebrities learning the ropes as they stay on a farm and compete with each other - and the early starts - to be named the winner.

Love Island's Hayley Hughes, actress Tina Malone, comedian Crissy Rock, parasport athlete Kadeena Cox, former professional footballer Paul Merson, reality star David Potts and dancer Artem Chigvintsev are also on the new line up for the show this year.

Commenting on the series, insiders said: "Producers have really gone all out to secure some very exciting celebs.

"Some aren't going to know what hit them when they have to do a few of the challenges. The series is definitely going to be bigger and better than last year for sure."

For the first run last year, 'Dancing With The Stars' pro Gleb Savchenko was crowned the champion ahead of the likes of 'The Only Way Is Essex' star Bobby Norris, Olympic athlete Ashley McKenzie, former 'Celebrity Big Brother' housemate Megan McKenna and 'Ex On the Beach' beauty Charlotte Dawson.

'Celebs on the Farm' will air on 5Star this summer.
