Gemma Collins failed to raise a smile as she ran errands in Essex, days after her explosive split from James Argent.

The former TOWIE star was dressed for the summer weather in a pretty blue and white printed dress, which showed off her three stone weight loss during lockdown.

Gemma has been working out regularly during the coronavirus lockdown and her tiered summer dress showed off her new figure.

The 39 year old added a bright pop of colour to her look with red slider sandals with bows on top, along with matching red nail varnish.

The star carried a white handbag over her shoulder, while she wore her blonde hair down around her shoulders in a sleek straight style.

While she looked stunning, Gemma looked sombre on her outing and kept a straight face as she ran errands.

After being snapped walking down the street, Gemma popped into a shop to stock up on some essentials, including a copy of the latest issue of OK! magazine.



Gemma clutched OK! in her hand and gazed down at it as she left the shop, with newlywed Princess Beatrice visible on the front cover.

Gemma is back in the UK following a trip to Spain, where it was revealed that she and on-off boyfriend Arg, 32, have split.

Their split was revealed after Gemma shared a text message exchange between the pair in which Arg cruelly branded her a “hippo”.


In the texts, which were shared on social media on Tuesday 14 July, Gemma began the conversation by saying: “What man pays for another woman!!!”, to which Arg responded: “Insensitive.”

Gemma then replied with: “And the woman that saved your life has to pay for herself!!!”

The star’s next reply to Arg was not visible, and he wrote back: “You are supposed to be treating me you hippo.”

After Arg’s cruel remark, former TOWIE star Gemma told him: “We're over.”

Arg also reportedly told the TV star that he wanted an open relationship like actor Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, who recently opened up on being intimate with other people during their marriage, but the pair allegedly split over the question.

Gemma has since apologised to Arg for sharing the explosive screenshots for her 1.9million Instagram followers to see.

In a text message screenshot obtained by MailOnline, Gemma told him: "I'm sorry I put the messages up I was so hurt you suggested an open relationship it didn't look like a joke when you typed it I was so upset but I shouldn't have put the messages up that was anger on my part which was wrong I am sorry about that x."

Though Gemma looked downcast on her outing, the star excitedly announced her new role as ambassador for airline, Wizz Air.

Sharing a video on her Instagram, Gemma wrote: “WIZZ AIR. Ole! Super excited to officially announce that I am THE brand ambassador of @wizzair UK this summer.

“The GC really is reaching new heights. Join me as I take to the sky… with social distancing..

“From the ‘reeef to Ibiza I am the original Marbella Queen. Yeah baby.”
