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). In 2019, she began starring in her own reality series and hosting a podcast on BBC Sounds.
Gemma Collins has revealed that she was hooked up to a drip at her Essex mansion after feeling under the weather. The former The Only Way Is Essex star, 41, shared clips of her arm attached to a drip in her living room recently, after a medical specialist visited her at her £1.3m home.
While it was unclear what Gemma's drip was for, she had previously told her followers earlier in the week that she'd been feeling ill having been struck down with a chest infection which resulted in her having to complete a course of antibiotics.
She shared a clip of her new hair transformation and told her fans she felt like a "different woman" despite being ill. "I told you I'd walk out here a different woman.
Despite having a chest infection and being on antibiotics and steroids, I feel totally cured after getting in here!" she said.
