Danielle Armstrong snubbed by ex James Lock

James ‘Lockie’ Lock snubbed Danielle Armstrong when she returned to ‘The Only Way Is Essex’.
The blonde beauty quit the ITVBe show last year after ending her romance with her ex-beau James, but the star has admitted when she made her surprise entrance on the show, which will air on Sunday (29.10.17), her former lover and his current girlfriend Yazmin Oukhellou "stormed out" and didn’t speak to her.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, the 29-year-old reality star said: "[It was] one of the most awkward experiences of my life. I walked in and they stormed out."
However, Danielle has revealed the couple soon came round and she was able to "clear the air" with Yazmin, although James was "mute".
She explained: "But as the night goes on I do end up having another scene with James and Yazmin.
"I cleared the air with Yazmin but James was a mute. He might as well have not been there. But me and Yazmin were actually fine. I think it actually shows girls are a lot more mature when it comes to things like this."
But Danielle has revealed her mother urged her not to return to the reality show.
Danielle said: "My mum and everyone was saying ‘have you done the right thing going back, what is the point?’
"But for me I came away from it with that extra bit of closure."
And Danielle has revealed she felt "so strange" being near her ex-partner, who she had dated for almost five years, because she "felt nothing", not even "butterflies".
She said: "It was so strange to be standing there in front of someone that I’d spent four years and we’ve been through everything together and he’s standing there with a new girlfriend like arm round her and I felt nothing.
"I didn’t even get those butterflies or even feel ‘have I done the right thing?’"
Danielle – who has recently split from Daniel Spiller – has admitted she is "happy" James has moved on and is settled in his new romance.
She added: "I felt happy for him. For me I walked away, if anything’s come of this, it’s that. Everything happens for a reason. For me I don’t think they were too happy."
