Gemma Collins says her mum has met an alien. The former TOWIE star says her mum Joan had an extraterrestrial encounter with a creature from another planet while she was riding a train.
She said the 'man' her mum met while travelling had "dead eyes" and that they communicated telepathically. Speaking on her BBC Sounds podcast about her belief, Gemma, 39, said: "I believe in aliens – my mum has actually met one on the train. "She said, 'I was sitting on the train and I saw this guy – and I thought something’s weird about him'. "Her sixth sense, being a witch, it didn’t feel right, so my mum started to feel really uncomfortable." Gemma says her mum then successfully communicated with the alien telepathically.
