Last week Gemma Collins jetted off on a sun-soaked escape with her fiancé Rami Hawash. But behind the smiles and enviable holiday snaps, she was facing another setback in her long fertility battle.
The former TOWIE star took to social media to give her followers an update on her conception journey, saying she “can’t get pregnant” after previously admitting she’s desperate to have a baby.
The 42-year-old, who has recently been to the Greek island of Mykonos, said alongside a beautiful bikini snap, “With an underactive thyroid and PCOS, every day is a constant struggle but do you know what, F IT.”
She added the hashtag “can’t get pregnant due to PCOS”. Her comments section quickly filled with praise for her curvy figure, messages of support and stories of other women’s fertility struggles and successes, with many telling the reality star not to give up hope.
Following her admission online, the star opened up on her sadness over her difficulties in an interview, while maintaining her determination to have a family.
