Gemma Collins has been accused of editing her latest photoshoot

TOWIE star Gemma Collins has been accused of photoshopping her head onto another model's body.

The shocking accusation has come after a photographer for Lily Limited took photos of 30-year-old model Katie Green over two photoshoots.

According to the Daily Star, the model is said to be "furious" following claims that Gemma edited her own head onto the model professional photos.

A source told the publication: "[Lily is] furious and thinks it’s a total infringement.

"It’s a terribly bad photoshop. A child could see it’s a fake. You can tell they’ve just stuck Gemma’s head on Katie’s body."

Not a major change but the most noticeable thing is that widow's peak, it completely vanished, hair transplant maybe? - He is now happily married to Michelle Keegan. He is actually doing really well for himself (go on Mark!), he has his own radio show, he used to be the face of Take Me Out: The Gossip and he ventured across the bond, and he works with Mario Lopez on Extra.

Here he is on Loose Women just a few days ago, he pretty much still looks the same minus the hair change, it's now flung to the back rather than the side. Following his break-up from his on screen love, Lydia Bright, he took sometime off from TOWIE but now he is back!

We use the term 'Now" very loosely with Maria, this picture is from early 2017 - that's because we can't find any recent pics as she is keeping it on the down low. We do know that is she is a makeup artist now, at least she is doing something.

Eek!

A representative for the 37-year-old star told the publication: "The images were used in good faith by Gemma.

"An external firm assured her that they owned the copyright and had commissioned the shoots."

However in an email obtained by the newspaper Lily Limited dismissed claims that they gave the TOWIE star permission to alter the images.

It allegedly reads: "We would like to stress that in no capacity or at any time did we agree to, or give permission to anyone for our images to be photoshopped or altered in any way.

"As a company, we respect all body shapes and sizes and do not change or alter the models in our own images.

"As far as we are aware, this is an isolated incident and has not happened before. We are currently taking the necessary measures to make sure this doesn’t happen again."

Gemma has since deleted her photos off her social media channels.

This isn't the first time Gemma has been accused of editing her photos, in the past fans have pointed out something weird with one of her Instagram pictures.

Not only that but after Lauren Goodger was slammed for the 'worst Photoshop ever' over her 'weird shaped ass,' she posted a video to shut down the photoshop shamers.

Aaaand even Kim Kardashian, who earlier this year welcomed Chicago West into the world, left fans wondering if she edited her underwear snap.
