Gemma Clare Collins (born 31 January 1981) is an English media personality and businesswoman. In 2011, she began appearing on the ITVBe reality series The Only Way Is Essex. Following a brief appearance on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! (2014), Collins has appeared in various television programmes including Celebrity Big Brother (2016), Celebs Go Dating (2018), and Dancing on Ice (2019).

GEMMA Collins was left begging for help after her car broke down on the motorway - at 4.30am. The 41-year-old Towie diva finished her show in Glasgow and was heading back down south when disaster struck.
In a post labelled "Send help!" and showing the time, she explained that the vehicle had conked out. She told followers: "Guys you couldn't write this.
I'm now broken down in a car at the M6 toll. Can someone come and rescue me please?" The star later posted a picture of the empty road ahead writing: "Lol I'm crying." Gemma issued an update much later, telling her fans that she was back on the road with just hours to go until she had to be back performing.
