Gemma Collins swaps glam frocks for a wetsuit as she paddles a canoe in the rain

Reality TV star Gemma Collins embraced the great outdoors on a trip to Hampshire where she was filming for the latest series of her reality show

Gemma Collins has swapped her glamorous outfits for a wetsuit to brave the rain for a canoe trip with her family.

The former Towie star, 39, headed to Lymington in Hampshire for a day out with her brother Russell, 42, and her nephew Hayden, 12.

The trio were pictured hiring canoes and heading out onto the water for a fun day of adventures.

Gemma, who filmed the outing for her latest reality TV project, was seen looking nervous as she got into the canoe and edged away from the shore.

She kept warm in a wetsuit which showed off her incredible three stone weight loss.

A huge crowd gathered to watch as the star made her first tentative paddles before gaining her confidence.

After getting out of the water, Gemma wore a huge smile on her face and wrapped herself and her nephew in foil blankets to keep warm.

The picturesque coastal town of Lymington is set in the New Forest National Park, and she previously posted a video online appearing to show the trio shacked up in a caravan.

During the trip, Gemma also filmed the family visiting some horses and enjoying a drink in a pub.

The holiday is a touch less glamorous than Gemma’s previous trip to Greece.

Last month, she jetted off to Mykonos for a break in the sunshine and was pictured soaking the rays in her own private pool.

Gemma was seen modelling a series of sexy swimming costumes as she embraced her incredible new figure and new-found body confidence.

She’s believed to have lost around three stone during lockdown and looks better than ever.

It’s been a tough year for Gemma as she split from her on/off boyfriend James Argent following a fiery row.

She went public with nasty messages he’d sent her calling her a “hippo” but later apologised to Arg for publishing the private exchange.
