TOWIE's Gemma Collins on fat-shaming & PTSD from trolling”

Ever wondered who the real GC is? Gemma Collins opens up to @joshsmithhosts about the mental health consequences from a life lived in the public eye as she discusses the very real consequences of fat shaming, trolling and therapy. Gemma reveals, "I have therapy every week. We did get trolled a lot and it's nothing but abuse. Do you know the really sad thing about it is? You could be doing your make-up or you could be at a friend's birthday and you have PTSD from the memory of someone saying something cruel to you." Gemma also opens up about how discussions around her weight affect her, "Everyone must stop judging if I put on four pounds, let it go. Put on 10 stone and I need to be carried out me house by air ambulance, maybe let’s talk about it. We should not be shamed - fat shaming is not okay and people are out to shame."
