Gemma Collins has got her fans talking recently, after being spotted flashing a rather large diamond ring on her left hand...and yes, it's on her ring finger after confirming that she is back together with her former fiancé Rami Hawash - and now, The GC has officially confirmed the news!

Speaking in an interview with The Time, Gemma let the news slip whilst talking about her car. She said: "I’d feel embarrassed now to drive a Range Rover. I have a Discovery, because I’m more muted, now..."

She then added: "I was talking to my mum yesterday about getting married..."

Gemma revealed that due to Rami's divorce from his previous partner not yet being finalised, they are keeping the news on the down low. She said: "Yeah, but we can’t really come out and say anything yet because Ram was married before and his paperwork has not come through, so until that’s officially signed, we’ve not said anything.

"They’ve not been together for two years. I know her, she’s got a partner, she’s as good as gold. There’s a child involved, he’s only three, obviously I love him to death. But until that paperwork’s signed I can’t come out."

The revelation marks the second time the pair have got engaged, with them initially dating in 2011 and getting engaged for the first time in 2013. They sadly split, however, in 2014.

Seven years later, Gemma and Rami got back together, with news revealed in April that they'd been secretly dating for months! After going Instagram official in July 2021, rumours that the pair are set to tie the knot have been rife.

In August, multiple photos were snapped of the 40-year-old giving us a glimpse of her new rock. After enjoying a romantic date night in London at the time, the couple looked more loved up than ever.

The wonderful news that the two were back together was confirmed back in July, with Gemma sharing an image of the pair looking loved up as they enjoyed the England match together.

Gemma spoke out about her rekindled romance with Rami, claiming that she would love to marry him and even wants to become a mum soon. The TOWIE star blamed her split with the 'man of her dreams' on bad timing.

Adding fuel to the fire, Gemma joked about the pair's wedding in a recent Instagram post, where she wished Rami a happy birthday. Sharing a video that showed a series of photos of the loved up pair, with music laid over the top, she wrote within her caption: 'maybe Lionel will sing this at the wedding 💒 😝 it was you all along ❤️'.

Congratulations Gemma and Rami! ❤️
