Speaking to , Gemma claimed that the hosts had got a telling off after they made their comments on This Morning earlier this week - but she still isn't happy.

The outspoken star explained: "I’ve been told on the rumour mill that Phil and Holly have been told off, but a public apology would go a long way.

"I haven’t seen them yet – obviously I’ll see them at the studio, but I’d like an intervention before the show starts.

"We need to find the culprit responsible for giving them this false information."

Gemma has also slammed This Morning’s Dancing on Ice correspondent Kem Cetinay, revealing that he is yet to apologise for his remarks.

The former Love Island star accused Gemma of napping through a dress rehearsal for the ITV ice skating competition.

He also claimed that Gem left filming early at the weekend after she grew "bored" of filming.

Speaking on Monday's episode of This Morning, Holly questioned the star's professionalism.

The 37-year-old presenter said: "I love Gemma and she’s great on the show. But there has to be a bit of professionalism that comes into any work you do."

Phil added: "The entire studio was standing there waiting.

"'Where is Gemma?’' for five, 10 minutes... 'Oh she’s having a nap.'"

The reality star has now admitted that she's worried the diva claims could impact her position on the show - telling the publication that she may be voted out thanks to Holly and Phil's comments.

She said: "I’m not looking forward to this week at all. What has happened could really affect my voting. It could be the last week I’m in the show because of how difficult it’s going to be to do a good performance."

Denying the allegations, Gemma added: "If I was so rude and unprofessional, why would people keep booking me for jobs?"

In addition to Holly, Phil, and Kem's comments, Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner also lashed out at the Essex girl.

Speaking to The Sun earlier this week, Jason told us: "I can always see who’s lazy. Gemma is lazy. She doesn’t look like her heart is in it at all.

"I do despair — at the state of our society today and also the entertainment industry.

"When I grew up people were bloody good at what they did. They were exceptional at something, so you were inspired by people on TV.

"Now we celebrate mediocre in this country. That, it seems, has become the new celebrity."

Jason also labelled Gemma "insecure" and urged her to stop complaining and start rehearsing as he worries she is a bad role model for young people.

Gemma's boyfriend James 'Arg' Argent hit out at the judge for his cruel remarks, tweeting: "You're supposed to be judging the routine & giving your opinion. Not slating a contestant who you’ve only just met, you haven’t given her a chance!

"It’s disgusting & unprofessional. She’s worked so hard & tried. What’s your problem!?"
