Python Selenium ChromeDriver Proxy Broken

Question

Currently running the latest version of Chrome: 88.0.4324.96, Selenium: 3.141.0 and using a valid proxy address.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.remote.webdriver import WebDriver

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
chrome_options.add_argument("--ignore-certificate-errors")
chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
chrome_options.add_argument("--proxy-server=my-proxy:my-port")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://www.expressvpn.com/what-is-my-ip')

When I execute this, the target url page cannot be reached but remove the proxy-server argument and the page can be reached via default local. With that said, I've tried adding desired_capabilities and configuring my proxy that way, options vs chrome_options params etc. but no luck. Unsure if this is regression in Selenium given the proxy setup seems pretty straight forward.
