Gemma Collins reveals 40th birthday plans where family and friends watch old TV clips of HER
GEMMA Collins has revealed her post-lockdown 40th birthday plans.
The former Towie star plans to go all out to mark the landmark age and get her family and friends to watch old TV clips of her, despite her birthday being two months ago.
Gemma was unable to have a lavished celebration party amid the coronavirus restrictions.
The TV star has already planned the epic day complete with singers and Cabernet dancers and memorabilia of herself.
Speaking on The Gemma Collins podcast, she said: “I hit 40. I need to start planning my 40th birthday celebration.
“I’ve got a biggish garden, I was maybe going to get a big screen and celebrate it by getting everyone into my garden.
“It’s more like a field, letting them watch memorabilia of me. It’s a bit self indulgent.”
It will also be an opportunity for her family and friends to explore the star’s new Essex home.
She said: “I’m only going to be 40 once. Once they’ve finished watching I’m going to burst through the big screen and go ‘Let’s party’, I’m going to have singers and Cabernet dancers.”
Gemma snapped up the glass-fronted, open plan home for an eye-watering £1.3million after boosting her earnings in lockdown thanks to a lucrative clothing brand and solo reality TV series.
The house boasts high ceilings supported by wooden beams, a spectacular spiral light feature, and dozens of windows including floor to ceiling glass windows.
No doubt the GC will add her own features and plenty of pink accessories to bring it up to her Diva standards, she has already forked out on a life sized glittery HORSE for her new pad.
The GC didn’t let lockdown spoil her birthday, the special day was filled with lavish designer gifts, pink balloons, an impressive cake and touching tributes from pals on Instagram.
Fellow Towie stars Vas Morgan, Jess Wright and Chloe Sims all paid tribute to the GC with a selection of throwback snaps and hilarious videos.

But her celebrations didn’t stop there as she also got to feast on some of her favourite tasty treats – a selection of french fancies and a HUGE pink themed three-tier cake that had a figure of her made out of icing placed next to it.
