Thoughts? 🙄
She has this banging body that we know she works long and hard for and then it's covered up in in this sack. I'd have her in something form fitting and that shows off her lovely arms / top of her back - doesn't need to be tits up to the chin and a leg up to the pants. Her stylist is crap. She is a beautiful looking girl with a great figure and just seems to consistently get it wrong at these events.

while I don’t think people should be sending messages like that to anyone, Gemma didn’t need to dox either opening the sender up to abuse
I know she's not actually allowed to dox people, but to be honest, if people are sending her direct messages like that I kind of think they deserve it. You can have your thoughts about people, and even chatting about it here where they have to actively choose to read it to be exposed to it is one thing, but to directly message someone like that is just mean I think. It's not even just sharing a valid thought or holding someone accountable. It wasn't even a productive comment, calling someone a mess directly just makes you a bit of a dickhead. There's no need.

Probably going to get shot down (but it's just my opinion personally not saying it's right or wrong) but usually in the first 12 months or so after having a baby the last thing on your mind is yourself.
All your attention is on that new baby of course you keep an eye on your own body, you shower and wash your hair, you start slowly getting around a bit more to the occasional you things but really it's just all about baby.

She is obsessed with her own body image .
When her baby was less that six months old she was stood with a personal trainer having him measure the amount of buckle fat she had gained to her face during pregnancy !
That is extreme, it shouldn't even be on a person's radar at the best of times but as a new mum to then say like eight weeks later oh here's the latest stats on my fat loss..... 1mm lost off my face fat, 2mm off my back fat, this much off my hip fat etc how the F does that make new mums feel really, why even share it it's by no stretch normal healthy behaviour .
Her content should come with a trigger warning .

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?
The thing is too, she could still have her banging body without being SO BORING, EXTREME AND PREACHY! As others have said she looked amazing when she did Strictly and she was nowhere near so extreme. She could easily do regular workouts and eat healthily most of the time and still look as fabulous, it doesn’t have to be so excessive and obsessive, with all her mad powders, mad gym schedule and the bitter chocolate that she’s “trained herself to like” 🙈
28th December, deep in the sloth days and her and fellow lunatic Gorka are in their gym separately and back to their breakfast protein bowls of yoghurt while their children rattle around that house - seriously, get a life you pair of muppets. Put on a film with your kids, play with their toys, go outside as a family! Tragic!

I would be really pissed off with my husband banging around and waking the kids up at 5.30am. No need for it, just be more careful.

I mean laugh with your mates about your vagina but but to post it publicly online is rather smuggy smug😬

Oh and BTW Gemma a vaginal birth doesn't always means tears and stitches. I've had four vaginal births and didn't tear once so mines intact AND I didn't have a c section. Smug bitch.

Mini G really gives off the most awful vibes.
he has zero sense of humour, is smug and self important and then moves into cruel or dismissive. You can actually see him curl his lip up in distain. Such a strange vain self absorbed man I can’t see what he brings to their family life at all.

His interactions within the family seem so odd- not at all relaxed and natural with her or the kids. Maybe it’s just coming across badly on camera but if that’s the case I’d stop filming!

Agree she has moved from a great fitness role model to yet another obsessive rigid anxious woman who can no longer eat even a single mouthful that isn’t ‘healthy’ without tons of regret and a million comments about how this can only be a one off and how awful it’s made her feel and how bloated and inflamed it’s made her. Even having a party for her big bday she was full of ‘back on it now’ after one night of food and booze. The self flagellation is awful to witness.

FFS Gemma. Stop whinging. I lift like you do. I’m quite built. So are loads of woman at my CrossFit gym & at hundreds of other similar gyms across the country.

I/they are not constantly banging on on social media about our bodies. We are not constantly filming ourselves in the gym. Or making sure our selfies get our flat stomachs in ‘for the gram’. I don’t think I’ve ever filmed myself in the gym, I rarely take photos of myself. I go, I work out, I socialise a bit, I get on with my day. My entire life isn’t about my body or how it looks. Exercise is something I consider a vital part of my life for my health & wellbeing. It’s 10% of who I am. The other 90% of me doesn’t think about it until the next day. Sure, be proud of yourself but dear god, stop whinging & crack on. You get the same comments every single red carpet you do. You know they’ll be there on The Fail. Don’t read it. It’s not hard.

I agree with all these comments about previously liking her. I always admired her hard work and dedication to fitness...getting up early and not making excuses no matter how tired. I know I'd never have the will power. Something changed when she got pregnant with Triv. I started to see through a lot of what she says..the girl doth protest too much. She never went into detail about Mia's birth and always spoke of 'her body doing amazing things to birth a human'. I get the positive framing of a traumatic incident. She then employs an army of private peeps because the truth is she was shit scared. She masks it.
Then there's her body issues. What is masked as positive mental health and physical wellbeing is really a form of disordered eating. How do I know? Well how many mum's who are able to successfully breast feed stop the minute they can get back in the gym? For most mum's they make sacrifices to continue feeding as long as poss. Not Gemma! She needs her body back.
I'm not shaming those who choose either breast or bottle or a combo of both. I have no opinion either way. I'm purely highlighting Gemma's body issues.

In the latest videos she comes across to be as so lonely, she’s clearly devastated, being her dad’s birthday doesn’t help either, and she’s there on her own with her little one. Just struck me as incredibly lonely and sad.

Well, I had the radio on driving home from work today and she was shaming Mike for having put weight on over Christmas. Some of the comments she made were truly awful.
She definitely has some disordered eating.
Forgot to add, she then went on to say she doesn't weigh herself, she can tell if her weight has gone up or down by the way her clothes feel, which is kind of ironic seeing as she only wears stretchy gym shit or oversize loungewear.
She was using words like fatty, blubber, etc. Just vile.
It's Christmas for God's sake, most people let their hair down and eat and drink what they like. There's no shame in it. They don't need a guilt trip from her.

Found that a little bit of a triggering read...I do like Gemma for keeping things real in general but as a recently PP mum who had a pretty fast delivery with some very nasty tears and stitches it did make me feel pretty shit. Luckily I have a husband who is not bothered !
And that's why you're the winner - you picked a man who doesn't value you only based on your vagina.

I don't like how she makes out that the reason she avoids meat is because it's basically dangerous and unfit for human consumption, but she's fine with feeding it to her kids.
I just don't believe her: obviously it's her way of justifying her very extremely limited diet but if she believes it's so terrible why is she feeding it to her kids?
The thing about preferring her mate's brand of protein powder because it has fewer ingredients, too: I know she trains a lot but if she's so bothered about avoiding processed food, why does she have a wardrobe-sized larder packed full of supplements and protein powders etc? Why can't she just eat real food?
At the end of the day it seems clear she has serious issues around control, food, body image and all three of these have got her obsessed. She likes to say it's all about avoiding dying young but I don't buy it. She seems to have had a nice relationship with her dad and you can tell she absolutely reveres him. She'll never have that relationship with her kids if she keeps up this absolute control thing.
I feel sorry for her that she's with Gorka tbh. He doesn't seem happy as a partner and father and he's often quite unkind to Gemma. She's a knob but she deserves better than him.

Can't see the resemblance myself.
I wouldn't worry about it.
Gemma may be many things, but her figure is fantastic.

Telly Fanatic is obsessed by how 'big' Gemma is and how 'manly' she is with her muscles and needs to 'stop because she's taken it too far'.
Never any opinion on personality or something Gemma has done, just solely about her body.
Which is the type of sexist bullshit I'd possibly expect from a 90 year old who has zero idea that women these days can be strong and powerful without those characteristics solely being allowed to be held by men...
