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 wowed as she left the Opera House theatre following the opening night of her one-woman show. The former The Only Way Is Essex star brought the first show of her GC's Big Night Out tour to Manchester.
And Gemma, who is taking on the iconic role of Mama Morton in the touring production of Chicago: The Musical from next month, razzle dazzled 'em in a vibrant suit and shades as she was mobbed by excited fans.
She teamed her on-trend 90s-style suit with bold pink heels that also added to the nostalgic look that evoked memories of the decade that gave us Beverly Hills 90210 and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
The 41-year-old was all smiles as she posed for photos outside the theatre. And on her Instagram she shared her video of the moment she stepped outside to be greeted by her audience.
