Gemma Collins, 40, reveals she’s starting IVF after failing to conceive and says ‘I want a baby now’

GEMMA Collins has revealed she is exploring the possibility of IVF after struggling to conceive with boyfriend Rami Hawash, 46.

The 40-year-old opened up about the frustrations she’s experienced while trying to get pregnant. 

Speaking on a  Love Lounge instalment of her The Gemma Collins Podcast about IVF, she said: "I really want a baby now, I’ve not been using any contraception. 

“I can’t get pregnant so I’m gonna have to be brave now and look into this myself.

"It feels  like sometimes – when’s it gonna happen? Why me?”

Gemma spoke about the possibility of IVF when a fan who has found herself in a similar situation emailed into the podcast to ask The GC for some motivation.

The former Towie star was quick to reassure the supporter that she and her fiance could still h ave some success.

She said: "IVF is not a bad thing, honey. Don’t worry. You can get it and lots of people conceive on IVF.

"There’s always someone out there with a bigger, worse situation than you. Just go with the flow of life."

Gemma and Rami first dated in 2011, enjoying an on/ off romance for three years before splitting in 2014.

They got engaged in 2013 when he proposed by hiding a diamond ring in a Christmas pudding.

They briefly reconnected in 2017, but Gemma was back with James Argent soon after. However, she called time on that rocky relationship for good last year.

In April, it was revealed that Gemma and Rami had been secretly dating for six months.
