Gemma Collins shows off her natural short hair in makeup-free selfie as she jets off on holiday after being left 'terrified' by an 'abusive and menacing' letter sent to her home
Gemma Collins showed off her natural short locks as she ditched her hair extensions to jet off on a sun-soaked holiday. The TOWIE star, 44, told her Instagram followers that she'd 'activated' holiday mode as she showed off her bob on Wednesday morning. The post, in which a tanned Gemma posed for a selfie in a pair of heart-shaped sunglasses, also saw her show off her natural beauty as she went makeup-free. Alongside the photo she penned: 'Holiday MODE ACTIVATED. loving my old skool @chloe glasses (yellow heart emoji) make up free short hair it's a VIBE. 'Just some individual lashes and a lip (lips emoji) blush from 6 years ago mine really lasted'. Gemma's bob is a far-cry from the look she sported during her years on The Only Way is Essex. The GC - who is currently engaged to businessman Rami Hawash, 50 - usually rocks a much longer flowing blonde hairstyle. Fans however were a fan of the change-up, with some taking to the comments section of Gemma's post to compliment her. They wrote: 'Love the bob', 'Love your hair too xx 20 years younger xx', 'Lovely, the haircut really suits you'. Gemma's getaway comes just a week or so after she was left 'terrified' when she received an 'abusing and menacing' letter to the home. The GC was forced to call in police as the man behind the letter detailed his strong dislike for her, even threatening to track her down. A source close to the reality TV star told The Sun in mid-June: 'Gemma was left shaken and very scared for her safety after she received a threatening and abusive letter from a man expressing his extreme dislike for her and using menacing language. 'It was really nasty and made reference to tracking her down, so she called the police straight away. 'It was alarming that this man knew her home address, but she already upped security and has round-the-clock guard dogs and has cameras onsite. 'She is always incredibly friendly with all her fans and happy to stop for pictures and a chat so to have someone send such an unpleasant letter has really shocked her.' The insider shared that there is now an ongoing investigation and Gemma is 'grateful' to the police for taking the matter seriously. The source added: 'She thought about what had happened to Holly Willoughby and her kidnap threat ordeal so didn't want to take any chances.' MailOnline contacted Gemma's representatives for comment about the matter. And in what has clearly been a rocky June for the reality star, she was also struck down with pneumonia earlier this month. After being left with no choice but to take some time off social media, Gemma returned to let her fans know the extent of her illness. She explained that her condition had been leaving her breathless 'really quickly' but due to medics diagnosing it as viral, antibiotics would be ineffective. She told The Mirror: 'It's shocking, I've had it now for over three weeks and I had steroids given to me by my doctor. It was DJ Fat Tony's wedding and I had to take them to get through that,' 'But I'm off them now and the sickness is really kicking back in. It's so frustrating because I normally have so much energy and I'm always loving life, but now I get really breathless really quickly and I feel like I'm dying.' Pneumonia is inflammation of the lungs, usually caused by an infection. Most people get better in two to four weeks, but babies, older people, and people with heart or lung conditions are at risk of getting seriously ill and may need treatment in hospital. Taking to her Stories Gemma shared snaps as she underwent X-rays while praising medical staff for their care. She wrote: 'Thank you to all the amazing doctors helping me your real life angels'. Announcing the news of her condition in early June, Gemma shared a photo of herself in bed looking poorly in bed. She wrote: 'Hey guys sorry been quiet i have Pneumonia. I'm not as fast or on it as I usually am on the daily. 'I am still honouring my work commitments which is taking every bit of energy I have but will be back entertaining you all soon.' On her Story she added an update as she showed she was on a drip and had been visited by a doctor. One post that showed a drip in her arm read: 'I'm having to take it easy which is not like me very slow and get so out of breath and tired so quick.'

Gemma Collins shows off her two stone weight loss in pink cycling shorts
GEMMA Collins flashed her two-stone weight loss as she posed in a baby pink two-piece for a family day out. The ITVBe star donned an oversized top and matching cycling shorts, paired with a pair of bling Chanel sunglasses, for her time with fiance Rami Hawash. 6 6 Gemma, 44, styled her blonde hair into a loose straight style and opted for fresh make-up and brushed brows. The self-confessed diva, who has dropped from a size 26 to a 20 in three months, started using weight-loss injections three months ago and she has described them as "life changing". She recently showed off her weight loss at the Chelsea Flower Show and it seems her results continued on her shopping trip with her fiance. Fans had previously speculated the pair had said I Do - and her step-son Tristan joined the lovebirds for their retail therapy. They headed to swanky department store Selfridges for a spot of retail therapy before visiting the food section for chocolate dipped strawberries. Later on in her Instagram video, the reality TV star captured Tristan posing with their pal DJ Fat Tony in the pub. In her caption, TOWIE alum Gemma wrote: "Nothing beats a family day shopping OBVS!!! "So hard to get Rami in the shops but when I do I really enjoy it! Why do men dislike shopping so much … need to add it to their DNA!!! "For the best part @dj_fattony_ come to meet us and was the best fun as always nothing but LOVE and a little chill just before his big day. We love you Uncle Tony X" NEW LOOK Gemma has teamed up with weight-loss injection company Yazen in a paid partnership and has said she is delighted with the results so far. "It's so crazy though, guys, being on my injection right now it's just so unbelievable the way my appetite has changes literally!! Bizarre I want it all but can't it's FANTASTIC," she previously wrote on social media. "Life changing to the MAX to go from a size 26 into a 20 !!! IM ABSOLUTELY so THANKFUL to @yazenuk." GLP-1 injections such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro, have had a surge in popularity in the past 12 months. Having been used primarily as diabetes drugs, they are now prescribed to boost weight loss by suppressing your appetite. Gemma now hopes to be a size 16 by the summer in a final desperate attempt to have a baby, telling The Sun: "I think I'll give birth to twins next year!" SIDE EFFECT? Yet despite her overall happiness with her weight loss jabs she expressed concern they were impacting her face. She told fans she believed the treatment was to blame for the "lines" on her complexion and told how deep lines and wrinkles appearing out of nowhere. 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. 6 6 6

I might even go back to my roots and wear something really Essex-like and over the top. 'At the moment I'm thinking something Italian-themed, then a 'wow' one with a huge train. I might even recreate Victoria Beckha m's wedding moment with the tiara, I loved that.'

He planned a romantic sushi dinner before telling her to look out the window, where he laid lights on the beach that read: 'Will you marry me?' Rami set up an outdoor seating area and flew out hundreds of roses so petals could cover the sands where they were sitting, with the ring in a shell. Gemma gushed that it was 'beautiful' and admitted she 'had no idea' what was coming and didn't have any makeup on or even a bra, but added: 'I wouldn't change a thing.' Rami popped the question with a huge diamond ring, that MailOnline revealed is worth in excess of a staggering £200,000. Gemma has said that she doesn't want to wear the ring too often due to its value and plans to wear a replica, except for special occasions.

He had originally proposed by placing the ring in a Christmas pudding in 2013 when they first start dating. However, four weeks later, Gemma had called off the engagement. But the pair then reunited during lockdown, seven years after breaking off their original engagement.

Gemma Collins claims she's 'saving the NHS' by taking Mounjaro after losing two stone on the weight loss jab
Gemma Collins has claimed she's 'saving the NHS' by taking Mounjaro after losing a 'life-changing' two stone. The TOWIE legend, 44, said she'll no longer need to go to the NHS with an 'obesity related illness' thanks to the help of the medication. Gemma revealed in January that she'd been taking the NHS approved Mounjaro injections and has left fans stunned with her incredible transformation. She told The Mirror: 'I've lost so much weight, you wouldn't believe it. It's the only thing I've managed to lose weight on without putting myself on a stressful diet. 'I think I'm actually saving the NHS. I won't be going to the NHS with an obesity related illness so I won't be putting any strain on it. I'm loving life, honey.' And she doesn't plan on stopping the weight loss jab anytime soon as she revealed her hopes to lose another two stone. Gemma, who said her current clothes are 'hanging off' because of her dramatic weight loss, said she still gets in shock with her new look. She added: 'I want to lose another 2 stone, this time I've done it super, super slow and I've not put any pressure on myself. I've followed it exactly how I needed to do it.' Last month Gemma revealed her dramatic weight loss in a figure-hugging black gym wear set in an Instagram video. After dropping two dress sizes, Gemma proudly admitted she 'feels like a million dollars' as she confidently showed off her figure. She told fans: 'I just love wearing my compression garments, they make you feel super snatched. 'And they're just super comfy, breathable. I feel a million dollars in them, you can dress them up or dress them down.' Gemma has long struggled with her weight and previously admitted she thought she would die after a gastric bypass surgery that left her in deep pain. The reality legend says her life has been transformed since taking the NHS-approved jab. The reality star has long wanted to start a family with her fiancé Rami Hawash and believes she will 'give birth to twins' next year after losing more weight Speaking to The Sun last month, she said: '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!' '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.' Gemma, who at her heaviest weighed 23st and was a size 26, said her goal is to get down to a size 16 by summer. She is currently a size 20. The reality star has long wanted to start a family with her fiancé Rami Hawash and believes she will 'give birth to twins' next year after losing more weight. But Gemma's weight loss journey was a difficult one before she found Mounjaro, admitting she would even taken appetite suppressant Reductil as a teenager, which has since been taken off the market. Gemma admitted she would feel 'suicidal' when she was on diets and has been weighing for food portions and eating boiled eggs everyday for years. The star previously had a secret operation to have a gastric balloon fitted but was left feeling so ill after she thought she might die. She said: 'It was scary. I should never have done it... I thought I was going to die. I could not get out of bed. The pain in my stomach... because it was like a foreign body in my belly.'
