I think she’s got an amazing figure but I wouldn’t be surprised if her obsession partly comes from little G. There’s a definite unhealthy obsession with health and fitness. It’s definitely going to rub off on her children especially Mia.
She's got a great figure but for me it wouldn't be worth it. Living off protein powder and allowing yourself a piece of 100% chocolate on special occasions, spending hours and hours in the gym/ice bath instead of being with your children, it's not living is it?

I think it’s very telling that as soon as he’s home, she’s locked herself away in the sauna. What about a nice date night or just a movie night in front of the tv.. something together. She’s very narcissistic in my opinion (they both are).
Maybe she wants a break, she’s on her own with the kids all the time while he’s off doing whatever he’s doing, I think I’d be desperate for some me time. I’d also probably be really pissed off that he didn’t come home when the dog was so poorly and put to sleep so probably wouldn’t want a date night with him right away? But that’s just me

Two days of not eating a strict diet and what a bloody fuss! Can you get 'inflammation in the body' that quickly even?!
No. Well, yes but not to the extent you’d remotely feel any effects in two days.

It’s absolute nonsense that you need to re-programme or re-set after TWO DAYS. FFS. It’s two days. Your body will barely even notice. You won’t put on weight, you won’t get spots, you won’t feel like shit. It’s two days. You’ll still be as fit, healthy & skinny as you’ve always been Gemma. I guarantee you she’s had longer breaks from exercise (& diet) at other points in the year.

She was huffing & puffing today like she’d done a major workout. She’d been in the fckn sauna. Which for most of us, is a treat, not torture.

And don’t get me started on no sugar. I’m a personal trainer, I train really hard, eating well is very important to me. But Gemma just infuriates me. There is no need for anyone to go to these extremes. It’s such a bad example to set. I eat chocolate every day. I still look like Gemma. I’m still fit, healthy & more importantly, happy. Life is short. I’d never encourage any of my clients to cut sugar. What’s more important is education & learning moderation. Nothing extreme. Just consistent & thoughtful choices to create healthy habits.

Gemma's words about it brought me to tears. As much as she grinds my gears these days I hope they're all ok, so devastating to lose a pet 😔

She's shared a story of Trivago in a walker, ( I used a walker with our two back in the day),


but I actually seen a article on FB recently saying walkers are bad for them, and stop them walking as quick.
It’s ok Gemma will tell us she has her own infant development specialist who says it’s fine 🤣

I think, to try and stay on track, the problem is that Gemma‘s initial surge of popularity was around the tail end of ladette culture. She had her boob, job, posed in Nuts weekly and gave interviews where like Amy in Gone Girl, she was one of the lads, beers, footie, Manchester etc etc.

Gemma’s not that daft, she knows times have moved on so she’s rebranded. But all that ‘Not like other Girls’ bollocks still swills around her head. She’s not like other boring, stick-in-the-mud women who care about their weight, she’s cooooool and just likes being fit. She’s not like other mums who are uptight about what their kids eat, it’s all about balance (but also … hmm ), she’s not like other women who make their kids a priority after their birth, she’s a cool woman who makes misogynistic jokes at her own expense about her partner’s wants from her body (favourite pub, anyone?).

I don’t think she’s a terrible person, I think she has some lovely attributes but she cant really let go of all those messages she internalised about what she needed to do, who she needed to be to be famous. So much of it is tied up in remaining, frankly, fuckable. And it’s frustrating when we can see through it sat at home but she can’t seem to see it.

Gorka has probably offered to drive everyone home. He’s dropped off Wynne in Cardiff and on his way to Scotland to drop off the doctor before taking Pete home to London….. He’ll be a while as he’s taking Diane’s parents back to Oz

Just a few little random observations that made me smile while she's been giving it the big 'un lately......

The fact that on the 4th of July Mia's birthday she's was primed, ready and convinced she was going to go into labour but here we are now on the 17th

She claims large numbers of well meaning (and probably experienced) ladies had been messaging her to say bumps still very high you've got a bit still to go but she declared them all wrong yet here we are now on the 17th

And the fact she keeps mentioning this amazing private midwife who said that little man was perfect and in the perfect position in her perfect pelvic floor that was situated in her perfect vagina who will exit at the perfect time yeah it's amazing what professionals will say if you pay them enough Gem 😂

What the bloody hell are the two of them thinking with that last post?

They've just had a baby and no one needs to know that Gorka is desperate to get his end away. News alert to the Marquez household, loads of people have had babies and loads of people have sex. It's not necessary to broadcast this stuff to the world and yet again, it makes Gorka in particular come across like a right twat.
I have to say if my hubby groped my boobs a week after giving birth when I was breast feeding I’d probably punch him in the face as they were that sore.

I know this isnt a rave thread and I'll probably get shot down for saying this here but why does Gemma get more stick than Gorka?

In the example of him waking the kids up before leaving at 6...that is a huge inconvenience and I think it's entirely reasonable for her to be pissed off. And also good on her not to give in to Mia's request for TV time (notice she didn't ask to cuddle with her papa or anything along those lines). He's away for months on end and literally tells the world he hasn't seen the kids never mind her...as far as I can see that choice is his to make, Gemma rolls with it, gets her routine sorted (whether you think it's wrong or right it's needed to some degree!) then he pops in for the weekend, does whatever he wants then disappears again - let's be honest the kids will now be tired, grouchy, won't eat etc etc because of that.

He is in the wrong here. If he wants to be away for big periods like he is I personally think she's well within her rights to expect him to respect her & the kids routines or even how she runs the house (of course like most men he doesn't, does what he wants then to top it off she gets berated for it!)

I don’t understand people who message directly stuff like that. Just don’t buy her skincare product, you don’t have to, you don’t even need to follow her on IG. There’s no point in messaging her just to be rude about her

Sure Gorka ‘we had a takeaway pizza’, then proceeds to show the kids eating the pizza & him eating chicken & broccoli.. FFS. Join in with your kids, you wont lose an ab. All you are role modelling there is that you think pizza is unhealthy to your very impressionable 6 year old. If you are pizza every day, sure, it’s unhealthy. As a treat now & again, it’s a delicious meal to share with others!

You can see exactly where Gemma’s shift in attitude towards food & exercise has come from. She looks like she has more fun with her radio co-host than Gorka.

Omg her stories this morning. Genuinely melting down due to her “poor recovery” after eating a bit of fucking pizza at Mike’s birthday meal!
She’s gone from healthy to disordered, it isn’t normal. Such a shocking example to Mia, demonising food in this way, and such a dull life, just have a night off and enjoy yourself you absolute BORE 🙈
I agree with whoever said that this has all got so much worse in the last couple of years, due to Gorka.
A clearly unhealthy relationship. She’s not happy!

She said Mia will be a target for bullies when older due to her parents. “Your dad’s a dancer”
Wouldn’t she be less of a target if she kept her off social media for as a long as possible

Well looks like I just got blocked by Gemma for asking very politely if we could stop perpetuating the idea that people with vaginal births are less desirable down there. That’s me told
