Everyone’s favourite meme-queen Gemma ‘The GC’ Collins has told of the mortifying (albeit, bloody hilarious) moment she ‘literally’ got stuck in the bath thanks to the “substantial meal” rule.
Just like the rest of Tier 2, Gemma’s had to order food in every restaurant she popped into for a drink, and has admitted on her podcast that it’s been taking a toll on her waistline.
Same, hun.
"I have got to stop eating. The new rule is every time you want a little glass of wine or a mulled wine, you have to order food," she said. "And well, I nearly got stuck in the bath.
"I’m not joking. We all know I’m dramatic but I seriously nearly got stuck in the bath at the hotel. I had a nice glass of wine at Fortnum & Masons and that was on my bucket list to do. And literally they said, ‘You’ve got to order some food.’"

Gemma Collins' best diva moments of all time - slider
When Gemma paraded through the Big Brother garden with a Shetland pony
When the Celebrity Big Brother stars were asked what one-off luxury they would like to be treated to in the isolated house, what did Gemma ask for? Contact with her family? Nope. A pamper treatment? Not quite... No, the GC asked for none other than a Shetland pony - which she proceeded to dance with around the garden. While stroking the pony, Gemma exclaimed "I want pink ones with glitter in their hair".
When Matt Evers saved Gemma's precious blow-dry from the rain

When Gemma slipped during her Dancing on Ice routine
The 2019 series of Dancing on Ice is the gift that keeps on giving and poor old Gemma had viewers glued to their screens when she tripped over her foot and skidded across the ice. Ouch. The TOWIE queen soon picked herself up and styled through her ice-skating miss-hap. Jason Gardiner reportedly suggested that Gemma's fall was karma for her diva tantrum the week before.
When Gemma's entourage fixed her dress on the NTAs red carpet
Can you even call yourself a diva if you don't enlist a personal helper on the red carpet? The GC had her entourage to hand, ready to smooth out any creases in her glamorous dress.
When she spent 72 hours in the jungle
Gemma famously lasted just 72 hours in the I'm a Celebrity jungle, but she still managed to make the nation laugh with her outrageous behaviour. The TOWIE star even insisted "People that murdered get treated better than this, and thats the truth. Even a murderer gets fed three times a day."
Gemma's infamous candy scene
Ah, the early days of Gemma and Arg's relationship. The GC was filmed in a Marbella special, when she famously told on/off boyfriend Arg "Don't ever disrespect a girl like that again. Take a good look at this, you ain't ever gonna get this candy.", before dropping her throw and strutting away in a black swimsuit.
Gemma's friendship with Kim K's BFF
Gemma made pals with no other than Kim K's best-friend, Jonathan Cheban in Big Brother, where she told him "By the time you're finished with me, I'm gonna be a Gem-dashian." The stars have been friends ever since and Jonathan even flies over to the UK to visit Gemma, where the pair go on fancy shopping trips to Harrods together.
When she was a total diva in an interview
Anyone else still cringe when they remember that painfully awkward chat between Gemma and an interviewer who hadn't read her book? The GC had a major diva-meltdown when she found out the journalist hadn't been seen a copy before holding the interview, thus ending the call, "Darling, don't worry, we're going to get the book publishers to send everyone doing an interview the book. Thank you, bye!"
When Gemma went into full GC mode on Jason Gardiner
Dancing on Ice has been full of feisty celeb dramas. Gemma didn't hold back after Jason Gardiner accused of her being lazy. The TOWIE star furiously shouted "Boring!" before yelling, "Don't sell stories on me." Poor Matt Evers couldn't even hide how awkward he felt...
When she dumped her date live on Loose Women
Ah, poor Laurence Hearn - the charming man that attempted to win over Gemma, only to be dumped live on Loose Women weeks later. OUCH.
Basically, her entire time in the CBB house
Other hilarious moments from Gemma's stint in the Big Brother house included yelling at producers, "I don't need the money! I've got money!". She also got upset when Big Brother failed to provide professional blow-dries: "This is very expensive hair and its all frazzled, because you've only got straighteners in here, you haven't got heated rollers. So, you can pay for me to have a new set of extensions. Straighteners are what weirdos use on their hair."
And when she fell down the trap door at the Teen Choice Awards
Talking of Gemma's tumbles - how could anyone forget her iconic fall down the trap door at the BBC1 Radio Teen Choice Awards?

She continued, "Well I’d just eaten at the last place I’d had a glass of wine at. So I said, ‘I’ll have some pigs in blankets.’ Then my mate wanted a mulled wine and I was like, ‘Right OK, I’ll have to order a scotch egg as well.’ Then my mate goes, ‘I don’t eat scotch eggs.’
"So there I am faced with pigs in blankets and a rather large scotch egg with a side of piccalilli - well I had to eat it.

It’s not the first time Gemma has spoken out on the podcast about the important role sausages play in her life, admitting that they even helped her to finally pass her driving test.
“I took my test loads of times and then I think I actually bribed my driving instructor with sausage sandwiches to try and get him to pass me,” she said. “I used to love driving lessons. You’ve got to concentrate but it’s so easy to get distracted.”
