Gemma Collins banned boozing after she admitted cocktails "made her unwell" her post-lockdown. Lockdown has started to lift all around the UK amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Brits have been able to meet their friends in up to groups of six for the first time since the third national lockdown. Outdoor restaurants opened their doors to customers as one of the easing measures put in place.
However, Gemma admitted she had got quite comfortable with her new life in lockdown and spending it in her sprawling garden.
Only having had two cocktails, the self-confessed diva found she was "affected" by them quickly. Now the GC has no plans to drink anything other than a water and lemon.
