Viewers can expect intimate home life scenes, star-studded occasions and the challenges of managing a blended family unit. Beyond this, she's orchestrating her dream wedding whilst pursuing her heartfelt wish to become a mother through IVF treatment.
Gemma is engaged to her partner of many years, Rami Hawash, 50, who she originally met in 2011. Speaking about the upcoming series, Gemma revealed: "This really is the most important year of my life, and for the first time people will get to see the Gemma behind the GC."
"Over the next year I will be planning my wedding and beginning the steps into starting a family. I've always felt natural in front of the cameras, but now I want to let the world see the real raw me sharing the most intimate and personal times in my life," she said. "I feel ready to truly open up, not just about the present, but about my past and everything I've been through to become the woman I am today. I feel truly blessed and excited for everyone to come with me on this new chapter of my life."
Gemma's earlier programme Diva Forever launched in 2019 and continued for three seasons. The programme offered audiences an insight into Gemma's world as she balanced an ascending career alongside emerging business ventures, personal relationships and fresh prospects throughout.
The GC additionally shared her views on political topics – in the opening episode, for instance, after featuring on Good Morning Britain discussing Brexit, she confessed to cameras: "Brexit? I need to go into politics. I voted out. But I did tell a bit of a lie there. I was put on the spot. I didn't vote leave Brexit."
Gemma rose to prominence through her appearances in the reality show Towie from 2011 to 2019. Since departing Towie, Gemma's fortune has expanded substantially, transforming her into a multi-millionaire. Her wealth has accumulated through various spin-off appearances and reality television ventures. Most notably, she featured on I'm A Celebrity in 2014 – though her stint lasted a mere three days before she withdrew.
Additionally, she has participated in Celebrity Big Brother, Dancing On Ice, Celebrity MasterChef and Celebs Go Dating. The star's public profile has further flourished thanks to her fashion range and commercial partnerships.
In February 2024, The Sun disclosed that Gemma and Rami had become engaged whilst on a luxurious getaway to The Maldives.
Gemma has been open about her desire to start a family with Rami, and her upcoming show will document her IVF experience. She is a proud step mum to Rami's son Tristan.
