ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… South Africa<\/a> star Gemma Collins has revealed details about her ‘unusual’ experience with ‘transformative’ weight loss injections.<\/p>\n

The TOWIE favourite is presently participating in the Ant and Dec<\/a> programme for the second occasion. Gemma notably departed the standard version of the show after 72 hours in 2014 in one of the series’ most astonishing moments.<\/p>\n

With the current series of the pre-recorded All Stars edition of the programme launching at the start of the week, Gemma has proved popular with audiences.<\/p>\n

So far she’s participated in a food challenge against Coronation Street<\/a> legend Craig Charles and offered a glimpse into her romantic life with her fianc\u00e9 Rami Hawash.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old had previously disclosed that she utilised Mounjaro injections to assist her in her weight loss endeavour, but discontinued them after suffering a gall bladder attack. In a previous interview with OK! Magazine, Gemma revealed she shed 8kg from the injections, reports the Manchester Evening News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Thursday night’s (April 9) instalment of I’m A Celebrity, Gemma and her fellow campmates at Savannah Scrub explored the recent surge in ordinary people using injections to aid with weight reduction.<\/p>\n

This prompted Gemma to discuss her personal experience. “It is life changing, you can’t believe how amazing it is. You don’t think about food. When I was first doing it, me and Rami went for a Turkish meal. In my whole life if a bread basket came out [mimics eating it].<\/p>\n

“Do you know how weird it was for me to sit there, have the bread in front of me. Do you know how bizarre that is? It was great, it was liberating,” she said.<\/p>\n

Gemma went on: “That was in the very beginning. I ended up going to 15mg. That is when I got the pain…. I’m big anyway, I could lose 3st and not look different… I’ve done everything. It depends on your body. What works for you and you doesn’t work for me.”<\/p>\n

Discussing Rami, Gemma revealed he adores her for ‘exactly who she is’. The pair are engaged for the third time and will ultimately tie the knot in 2026 after being forced to delay their nuptials in 2023 to concentrate on other commitments.<\/p>\n

Later on, Gemma had her campmates in hysterics when she launched into a tirade about air fryers. According to Gemma, the kitchen appliance left her gasping for breath.<\/p>\n

“The minute it went on, I felt like it sucked all the air from my kitchen. I couldn’t get any oxygen. From that day I gave it away,” she said.<\/p>\n
