Sharing a photo of herself now next to one of herself before her pregnancy, Gemma wrote a lengthy caption about her body's changes.

Writing that she "couldn't be more proud of" her body, Gemma wrote, 'Admittedly, it is hard at first especially if like me, you were / are a gym bunny. However, if you change your way of thinking and realise firstly that pregnancy is a beautiful privilege denied to many woman so be grateful you have this opportunity, things do start to become easier.'
