GEMMA Collins is still waiting for an apology from an unnamed Dancing On Ice star who "lied" about her backstage antics.
The 37-year-old reality star says the ITV series has descended into "blade wars" and she has evidence confirming that she wasn't asleep during rehearsals last weekend.
Speaking on ITV's Lorraine on Friday, Gemma said: "We sort of know where the rumours come from ...
"They definitely didn't see me, I have texts confirming I wasn't sleep, confirming I never said I was bored, so it's just that person saying it.
"The show has become a bit blade wars, everyone is at each other, I just want to have fun, yes it's been a hell of a week."
Gemma, who is partnered with Matt Evers, vowed not to quit despite having a "very distressing" experience so far.
She added: "I'm not going to lie, I was throwing up on the ice yesterday. There were lots of tears, my family were very distressed. Obviously it has caused nothing but endless pain.
"Hopefully the truth will come out, the person will stand up and be honest, when it's all over."
She went on: "It has been one hell of a week the stories circulating have been very distressing. But I have been working on an amazing routine for Sunday and it will be jaw dropping."
Host Holly Willoughby discussed Gemma's behaviour on This Morning earlier this week and said she lacked professionalism.
But on Thursday, Gemma fought back tears as she told The Sun Online that jealous bullies behind the scenes have tried to destroy her Dancing On Ice experience.
She said: "In the eight years since starting on Towie I have never had what has happened to me this week.
“I have had nightmares, I have had non-stop dreams about my teeth falling out and when I googled it said it was stress related.
“I have woken up terrified thinking someone was in my house and screaming in the middle of the night.
"I even had a huge cyst removed off my shoulder last week that the doctor said was down to stress."
