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).

The reality star, 24, had been dating her co-star in the lead-up to going on Celebrity Big Brother back in April, before revealing on the show they had split. And now the pair have come face to face after their split as they both jetted out to the Algarve - where they were spotted filming scenes at a pool party for TOWIE's upcoming 15th anniversary special. TOWIE - which is one of ITVX's most streamed titles with 66million streams in the last 12 months - is back with the brand new series airing on ITV2 and ITVX later this year. Ella looked sensational for filming as she stepped out in a cerulean blue ruched bikini top with a matching full length sarong as she was joined by her glam co-stars Elma Pazar and another of Dan's exes, Amber Turner.

Meanwhile Amber, who split from Dancing On Ice star Dan in 2023, put on a striking display in an all-white ensemble. Amber's abs were on display in a white cupped bikini top with a gold brooch, as well as brief featuring an additional cut-out style waistband. She paired the bikini with a low-waisted white beach maxi skirt. Another star spotted at filming was Ella's best friend Dani Imbert, who looked incredible in a black and white crochet bikini with matching hot pants. Meanwhile Chloe Meadows was glowing in a red bikini top and crochet high-waisted shorts, and Courtney Green opted for a green floral bikini with a tiny beaded sarong.

Ella recently hinted that scenes in Portugal could be 'explosive' as she confirmed to MailOnline she would be joining the cast for the upcoming TOWIE 15th anniversary special. 'I'm so excited! I feel like it's going to be explosive. The last couple of series have been pretty tame, so it's time for a big one. And everything's just better in the sun,' she teased.

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline about the breakup, she shared: 'I'd known about going on the show for a while and honestly thought I was going in with a happy relationship. 'But things happened behind closed doors that I couldn't get over. For once, I put myself first.' Despite their relationship coming to an end, Ella insists things ended amicably: 'Nothing bad happened, there was no cheating or anything, and we still speak. 'In fact, we messaged the other day. I hope we stay friends.' Viewers saw Ella break down in tears inside the famous Celebrity Big Brother house as she opened up about the breakup just days into filming. Reflecting on how vulnerable she felt, Ella added: 'It took a lot of courage for me to be open up and vulnerable about my relationship on the show. 'I was very emotional but honest about how I felt at the time. Lovebirds Junaid and Joe Blackman packed on the PDA as they smooched on a sun lounger while filming 'I also didn't know what was happening outside the show and what he was saying, so it took a lot for me to be so open on TV, where everyone will have an opinion.' The reality icon, who left the show in a triple eviction alongside Patsy Palmer and Angellica Bell, also revealed she was surprised by the lack of support from her fellow TOWIE castmates after her exit. She said: 'I only got messages from Freddie (Bentley), Saffron (Lempriere), and Dani (Imbert), like those are my three best friends. But no one else, which surprised me, I'm not going to lie. 'It was a bit sad because I would've messaged them if they were on a show, but I didn't hear anything. 'But then again, I don't know what they were going through at the time, so I don't hold it against them. I just know I would've messaged.'

The slimmed down star looked totally different wrapped up in a leather look jacket and jeans as she left the hotel with Wes. While her younger sister Kelly, 40, and her brother Jack, 39, skyrocketed into fame, singer Aimee prefers to live a life away from the spotlight. The Osbournes reality TV show was a huge hit and it gave fans a peek into their lives but Aimee never appeared on the show. Aimee was largely raised in California until the age of 16, however she eventually moved out of the family home as filming for The Osbournes kicked off. She said that she would have liked to stay at home "a little longer" but as the MTV crew moved in the then teenager moved out. Reflecting on her decision to not appear on the show she added: "Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television? "I wanted to protect myself, my parents, my siblings, too. They were very young, very impressionable." Sharon said on the Talk in 2018: 'She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea — it was appalling to her. 'And so she left at 16 and I regret every day that she did. It broke my heart when she moved." Ozzy Osbourne fights back tears as he thanks wife Sharon for 'saving his life' in appearance at Rock N Roll Hall of Fame In 2003, Aimee featured in the MTV musical adaption of Wuthering Heights. Presently she is the lead singer for pop band ARO, whose first single Raining Gold was released in 2015. Sharon recently sparked concern over her gaunt appearance after being spotted out and about in LA with Aimee. It's after former X Factor judge Sharon, 72, revealed weight loss jab Ozempic is stopping her from gaining weight. The TV personality, who lost 42 pounds with the help of Type 2 diabetes drug, previously revealed she "didn't actually want to go this thin". But the TV star's face looked slimmer than ever, with her jawline incredibly pronounced. Chatting with Howie Mandel, she said in April 2024: "It's not a sin to use Ozempic if you have a weight problem, so why not talk about it?" Howie then asked if the weight loss drug was a positive experience for her. "Yes and no," Sharon replied. She added: "I can't put on weight now, and I don't know what it's done to my metabolism, but I just can't seem to put any on, because I think I went too far." Recently, Ozzy gave fans an update on his farewell Black Sabbath gig this summer. The legendary rocker, 76, is getting ready to bow out of touring forever. As he has had a number health issues over the years which have prevented him going back out on tour. Meanwhile, Danni Minogue has opened up on the time she felt attacked by Graham Norton and Sharon Osbourne. The pop star, 53, described feeling the victim of a "pile on" when she Sharon appeared as a guest on The Graham Norton Show in 2007. 8 Aimee prefers to live a life away from the spotlight Credit: Splash 8 She was rarely seen on the Osbournes reality show Credit: Splash 8 Aimee hated the idea of growing up on camera Credit: Mega 8 Sharon sparked concern at her gaunt look when she was out with her daughter recently Credit: Rex

MARK Wright's mum Carol has thrown support behind disgraced James Argent after his horror attack on his beauty queen ex girlfriend. Former Towie star James, 37, danced with his former co-star Megan McKenna, 32, following her wedding with footballer Oliver Burke, 28. 6 6 6 Posting a video to Instagram from the reception, he wrote in his caption: "Congratulations to the beautiful Bride, My dear friend @meganmckenna who got married to the lovely @oliverjburke yesterday. "I can't tell you how much it meant to me, That you wanted me there on your special Wedding day. "We danced together just like old times in Nu Bar Loughton when we were kids. "We always supported each other in those TOWIE days & remained friends ever since. "You've blossomed into an amazing woman. You're a fantastic mum & you're going to make a great wife! "And your a much better singer than me haha. Love ya." Mark Wright 's mum Carl, 64, then threw her support behind James, writing: "Love this. Xxx." She also posted a series of love hearts and clapping hands. The straight-talking mum of Towie royalty, Mark and Jess was a key player in Essex for over 150 episodes and never held back when it came to offering advice to her kids. Carol joined Towie in 2011 during its second series, where Mark and his then-girlfriend Lauren Goodger were central to the show's main storyline. Watch James Argent shamelessly dance on stage before holding fan 'meet & greets' on return to Spain after attack on ex She recently shared a sweet tribute to a new granddaughter as Michelle Keegan gave birth to a baby girl. The post comes shortly after beauty queen Nicoline Artusson, 32, released a bombshell statement revealing shocking details about James' attack on her. James turned on model Nicoline while they were at their home in Spain last month. He was arrested and spent several hours in police cells before admitting a charge of domestic violence in court. Domestic abuse - how to get help DOMESTIC abuse can affect anyone - including men - and does not always involve physical violence. Here are some signs that you could be in an abusive relationship: Emotional abuse - Including being belittled, blamed for the abuse - gaslighting - being isolated from family and friends, having no control over your finances, what you where and who you speak to Threats and intimidation - Some partners might threaten to kill or hurt you, destroy your belongings, stalk or harass you Physical abuse - This can range from slapping or hitting to being shoved over, choked or bitten. Sexual abuse - Being touched in a way you do not want to be touched, hurt during sex, pressured into sex or forced to have sex when you do not consent. If any of the above apply to you or a friend, you can call these numbers: The Freephone National Domestic Abuse Helpline, run by Refuge on 0808 2000 247 for free at any time, day or night Men who are being abused can call Respect Men's Advice Line on 0808 8010 327 or ManKind on 0182 3334 244 Those who identify as LGBT+ can ring Galop on 0800 999 5428 If you are in immediate danger or fear for your life, always ring 999 Remember, you are not alone. 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men will experience domestic abuse over the course of their lifetime. Every 30 seconds the police receive a call for help relating to domestic abuse. Nicoline later spoke out in a statement, confessing: 'My fractures on my body have finally healed but I'm wounded inside.' Recalling the traumatic experience, she said: 'I was brutally thrown out of our new home in the middle of the night wearing only my pyjamas. 'I opened the door to let him in and only minutes after I found myself laying down on the stairs outside our house. My clothes and belongings were being thrown out from the balcony down on me. I was injured.' Nicoline also placed the blame for Argent's violence with constant clashes over his ex-girlfriend Lydia Bright. Shortly before the attack, she posted a story questioning whether it was acceptable for someone to remain close to their ex while in a new relationship. And Nicoline claimed she and Argent often clashed over Lydia's involvement in their romance. She said: 'I felt there were too many people in our relationship: me, my boyfriend and his ex. 'Three's a crowd', they say. 'I asked so many times if we could be just the two of us, but the answer was a strong NO. 'I experienced what I can only describe as targeted emotional distress which he allowed to continue.' Nicoline continued: 'After being together for one year my boyfriend finally promised me that he would have boundaries. 'He would put a stop to all that had been going on for months. 'But he didn't. Instead he broke the promise and her controlling behaviour continued. The rest is history.' Nicoline went on to thank the people who came to her aid and added: 'I have tried to understand why. "I have cried so many tears thinking about the way he chose to hurt me. He said he loved me and I believed him and here we are. 'There is now a legal record of what happened. Violence has no excuse - no matter how much love preceded it.' Argent was handed a six month suspended sentence and a two-year restraining order banning him from contacting Nicoline. He has only spoken once since The Sun revealed the attack on Nicoline and said: 'I haven't relapsed. 'I am still three years and four months clean and sober. 'I am devastated by what's happened." 6 6 6
