Explosive new Towie feud revealed as Diags hits out at co-star saying ‘she knows exactly what she’s done’
TOWIE star James ‘Diags’ Bennewith has hit out at his co-star Amber Turner after her split from Dan Edgar.
The TV favourite waded into his pal’s bitter split after Amber, 30, was seen in tears on Sunday’s episode of the ITVbe show.
Diags told The Sun: “Dan needed to be single. What annoys me about it is that everything gets put on him (by Amber).
“There’s stuff out saying it (the split) is his commitment issues – that’s b******t.
“Amber knows why. She will know exactly what she has done – you can project as much as you want and make out it is him – that boy has done nothing wrong.
“He’s done nothing but try… maybe at the start of the relationship, but that was 5 years ago.
“This is 5 years in and Amber’s behaving the way she’s behaving … he has tried hard to make it work and when it is not reciprocated… when someone has made out they are being a certain way… they’re doing it themselves.
“It is normally a sign someone is trying to cover up their own s**t.”
It comes after Amber was rumoured to have cheated on the former electrician, which she denied.
Dan confronted Amber on camera earlier this year as he accused her of straying.
On Sunday, they made peace with Amber left in floods of tears as he handed back the keys to their home that he moved out of.
“I obviously just needed to give you the key to the house,” he told her as he handed back the keys.
She said: “I don’t know why I feel sad when I look at you.”
Dan replied: “It is… the situation is sad. Of course it is.”
“It’s hard because I come here, and it just doesn’t, it feels weird that we’re not together,” Amber said back.
“In a weird way, I still feel like you’re the closest person here to me, even though you’re not. It’s weird. It’s like when we walk into a room we don’t speak to each other, it’s weird.
“I know that’s an outcome of the decision that I’ve made, but it still feels sh**.”
Dan replied: “Yeah… the decision that you, yeah this is the path you chose. So…”
“I just feel sh**,” Amber told him.
An emotional Amber fought back the tears as she said: “It could have been so f***ing perfect. That’s all I ever wanted for so many f***ing years. Like that’s all I wanted.”
Dan then spoke about taking their relationship to the next step, and why they shouldn’t have done it.
He said to Amber: “At the end of the day, we should have never have moved into the house, really.
“Like you, I was sitting there thinking, well we’ve been through so much, we’ve got to this point, we can just make it work.
“But it wasn’t meant to be. I don’t hate you at all. It just is what it is now. We both move forward, I hope you find happiness.”
It comes days after Amber broke down during a blazing row with Dan on our screens.
