Gemma has revealed she has now shifted 3st and confidently showed off the results in a white one-piece swimsuit.
The media personality put her new figure on display while posing with her hand on her hip.
Gemma has been soaking up the sun at Nikki Beach in Marbella.
She captioned it: "Sunshine, DND, unavailable," with a sun emoji.
But it's not all been smooth sailing for Gemma is convinced her face is aging at an increased rate.
She wrote on social media: 'I really don't know what's happened to me, I really don't. It's just come on me overnight. But it has been a year since I've had any little tweakments.
'I don't know if it's since I've been losing weight. I sure haven't got 'Ozempic face' yet, but it would be the dream right now.
'I've always had a fuller face, as you know. I do like expression around my eyes. I want to look natural still. But this just isn't right. What has happened? I am 44 but this is taking it to levels that I never, ever imagined it'd get to.'
Loose skin and sagging are a known effects of using drugs like Mounjaro, Wegovy and Ozempic due to the change in the amount of fat stored in the face.
At her heaviest, Gemma weighed over 23st and was a size 26. She told us that she couldn't even roll over in bed and was left unable to wear sexy lingerie.
During her darkest period Gemma had a secret operation to have a gastric balloon fitted called an Obalon Balloon, but was left feeling so unwell she believed she'd die.
Now, after years of fad diets, Gemma believes Mounjaro is her best shot of dropping weight for good and could even help her achieve her dream of becoming a mum.
She said: "I think I'll give birth to twins next year!
'I can't believe I've finally found something that works. I've lost nearly two stone already and it's been completely effortless - I don't even want to eat anymore!'
Gemma, who is engaged to Rami Hawash, told us how she started noticing a change to her body composition just days after beginning her course of jabs.
She said: 'I was like, 'Wow, this is unbelievable.' The weight was finally coming off of me.
'I got on the scales and lost something like 6kg in my first week. I bet my house by May, I'll have six stone off. And it's been effortless."
She added: 'I've struggled for many, many years to lose weight... All my life... I tried everything.'
'I can remember at school taking a tablet called Reductil… (an appetite suppressant which is now unavailable and was taken off the market).

Bonnie Blue dark secrets behind sex fame uncovered in new Channel 4 documentary
Bonnie has split from her husband and her closest friends seem to be Josh, who posts her videos, and a stylist. The dark secret behind Bonnie Blue's sex fame is reportedly uncovered in the new channel 4 documentary about her life. The pornstar hit headlines and stormed social media after her biggest event was in January, when she had sex with 1,057 men in 12 hours, the inspiration for the title of a new Channel 4 documentary, 1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story. At a screening of the documentary, Bonnie insisted she was 'very happy' with her life. But her notoriety, and her boasts of sex with married men, who, she says, should not feel guilty about cheating on their wives, come at a price. In the film, Bonnie, a 26-year-old former NHS recruitment worker from Derbyshire, whose real name is Tia Billinger, says: 'The last time I went out by myself was probably about six months ago. Now it is not that safe. I get hundreds of death threats a day, so it is not that safe when I walk around. 'I say, 'It is going to happen at some point, someone will come and give me stick ' and fair play to her, at least they are getting up off their sofa. My worst one is acid, if someone did acid, and I could see some spiteful girl doing that.' Bonnie has split from her husband and her closest friends seem to be Josh, who posts her videos, and a stylist. She says: 'My sort of circles got smaller, but my team are also my best friends.' Director Victoria Silver followed Bonnie for six months, gathering footage of her having sex, and was at her January marathon for a couple of hours, reports the Mirror. At the documentary screening, Bonnie expressed surprise at the amount of explicit footage used. Asked if she was expecting complaints, Victoria said: 'If I was making a film about a musician or some kind of other performer their work would be in there. I think it is important to see what she does.' Bonnie is clearly proud of her work. Of her sex marathon, she says: 'I love the fact that I was able to experience that day with over 1,000 subscribers, fans, people that spent time out of the day to come meet me. 'But, yeah, I also need money to be able to take time out of my days to be able to do that, to hold these events. These events aren't cheap by the time you pay for staff, security, the venue.' But she says she has earned more than £1million in some months, and the documentary shows the increasingly extreme lengths she will go to for clicks and views. One scene shows Bonnie at home with mum Sarah, who speaks with pride about how her daughter was a great dancer as a child. She also seems proud of her career as a porn star. She says: 'Would it be something that I chose for her to do, no. I was really, really shocked, but now would I want her to do anything else? No, not at all. It's her choice.' Sarah and other relatives have given up their jobs to be on Bonnie's payroll. Sarah says: 'People I know always liked us both, but think it's OK to make nasty comments. 'Most of the time I just laugh. I'm like, 'If you could earn a million pounds in a month, your morals would soon change, and you'd get your bits out'. I don't care what people say.' Bonnie says: 'My family started to put up with hate, I get that, but I also get the life I live and the money. So it's like I also want them to receive some of the rewards.'

The documentary ends as Bonnie is about to head to Romania to meet influencer Andrew Tate, who is facing rape and human trafficking charges, which he denies, and is a self proclaimed misogynist. Bonnie says: 'He's probably just as controversial as I am. Whether people love him or hate him, he's a marketing genius.' Director Victoria asks her: 'You talk about female empowerment, but how do you square that with aligning yourself with the most misogynistic male on the internet?' Bonnie says: 'Piers Morgan interviews serial killers all the time. It's not messed up his brand. He [Tate] has been labelled multiple things by the media, and so have I. We're probably the two most misunderstood people out there at the moment.' Channel 4 defended the documentary, telling the Mirror: 'The explicit content is editorially justified and provides essential context.' * 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story, Channel 4, Tuesday, 10pm.

Bonnie Blue sex fame hides a dark reality laid bare in new Channel 4 documentary
Bonnie Blue insists she is happy but there is a cost to her fame and she does not live a normal life Bonnie Blue has made millions from porn, inviting multiple fans to have sex with her and posting film of what some people would call orgies, but she calls 'events', online. Her biggest event was in January, when she had sex with 1,057 men in 12 hours, the inspiration for the title of a new Channel 4 documentary, 1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story. At a screening of the documentary, Bonnie insisted she was 'very happy' with her life. But her notoriety, and her boasts of sex with married men, who, she says, should not feel guilty about cheating on their wives, come at a price.

But she says she has earned more than £1million in some months, and the documentary shows the increasingly extreme lengths she will go to for clicks and views. In one stunt, she creates a school classroom for a sex show, with other, younger, contributors taking part after being sent invites. The director's voiceover says they are not paid but 'appearing in their socials with Bonnie is payment enough'. At the shoot in Birmingham, one girl called Codie says: 'She got quite big quite fast, so it will be nice to see how she does things. No, I am not being paid today, it'd just be that I get tagged and then hopefully get followers and subs from that and then roll on to my page.' She admits she does not normally do anything 'adventurous' on her OnlyFans page and that this is the first time she has taken part in filmed group sex. She adds that making sex films is better than having to do an office job. Another contributor, Leah, says: 'I got a DM to see if I wanted to take part. As soon as I heard Bonnie Blue's name I was intrigued because she's everywhere at the minute.' Leah says this is the first time she has been with other people in a room having sex and she is 'definitely' nervous. But Bonnie does not seem bothered or concerned by the fact the girls look a bit shy and intimidated. Bonnie says: 'The fact they are so nervous works in my favour, because their reactions will be more realistic. Or if they feel intimidated, obviously, I want them to say, but sometimes sex is intimidating, so it's going to be good.' Another scene shows Bonnie at home with mum Sarah, who speaks with pride about how her daughter was a great dancer as a child. She also seems proud of her career as a porn star. She says: 'Would it be something that I chose for her to do, no. I was really, really shocked, but now would I want her to do anything else? No, not at all. It's her choice.'

Love Island's Indiyah Polack in tears over Dami Hope's message on three-year anniversary
Love Island couple Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope are celebrating their three-year anniversary after falling for each other on the ITV2 show Love Island star Indiyah Polack and Dami Hope are celebrating their three-year anniversary after falling for each other on the ITV2 dating programme. The gorgeous TV personality took to her Instagram Stories to reveal the bouquet of flowers he bought for her on their special day. Along with red and white roses, Dami wrote her a sweet card that read: "Just wanted to steal a moment before the clock hits noon and remind you that, every day with you feels like the best kind of adventure. Thank you for filling my life with laughter, love, and all the fun in between. Here's to three years of endless memories and forever more, wifey." She also filmed a video of the two sitting in the car, reminiscing about the day he asked her to be his girlfriend three years ago. The MOBO Awards presenter also posted a selfie with Dami, adding in the caption: "Three years with my baby." Indiyah returned to the bouquet of flowers and filmed a short video for fans, telling them she 'just woke up with crust in her eyes' and was immediately gifted the flowers. "I was really happy with these this morning. Thank you so much! I love being with you - here's to many more amazing years," the star wrote. Indiyah gave fans a glimpse into their relationship, revealing their a lot of the time they spend together is 'doing lots of improv' and having fun. She posted a clip of the two pretending to be cowboys and said: "When people ask what we've been up to for three years. Lots of improv. Not a sane cell in sight btw." Earlier this year, the season eight star revealed she was diagnosed with ADHD, and she admitted she was fearful of how it could affect her career. As written on the NHS website, ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and is "a condition that affects people's behaviour. People with ADHD can seem restless, may have trouble concentrating and may act on impulse." Indiyah revealed she hadn't wanted to open up about it publicly in case it affected her career. She spoke to Shayna Marie and Zeze Millz on Hot Girl Talks on Capital XTRA: "There's a lot of things that have happened with me like mentally. "As a black woman, I had been shy to disclose, so recently I have been diagnosed with ADHD. And that was something I was very up in the air about talking about." She went on : "Because I didn't want that to be a factor of my career, or the factor of whether I get booked for jobs, or just a factor in everything. "Because I feel like being a black woman, we have a lot of things already against us. So, to go and chuck in another thing, it is just something I'd rather not tell them about."
