It comes just days after Gemma revealed why she’s BANNED from returning to Towie.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, she said: "It’s not that I wouldn’t want to because I love the show, I think it’s amazing.
"I wouldn’t be where I am today without that show and I’ll be forever grateful.
"However, my agent has told me if I ever step back on that show it would be a career disaster.
Gemma added: "I have to take my agent’s advice on some things. I don’t know why he thinks that."
The TV legend is keen to reunite with all the OGs from when she was on the show.
She said: "I’m waiting for the big reunion, there’s got to be a reunion at some point down the line and I would definitely go back for that.
"But it’s not me who doesn’t want to do it, it’s my agent who stops me every time."
Over the years Gemma was involved in a number of storylines over the years.
One of the biggest was her on/off relationship with co-star James Argent.
The pair were together on/off between 2012 and 2020.
But now the star is engaged to Rami Hawash.
