Gemma Collins is the veritable QUEEN of Essex and a diva of epic Mariah Carey-esque proportions this side of the Atlantic, so it makes sense she’d be calling the shots when it comes to choosing diva-appropriate names for her future offspring.
Chatting to heat about her new book The GC: How To Be A Diva, Gemma opened up about her plans to marry and have children with her Towie co-star and boyfriend James Argent.
“I’m not worried about what comes first, what’s meant to be won’t pass you by,” she told heat.
“I’ve got a really good life. I’m lucky, so I don’t feel that it won’t happen for me – it’ll just happen when the time is right.”
Gemma then went on to reveal she had already thought about baby names, stating: “I like the name Angel or Mimi.”
The reality TV star then added that Arg is not necessarily on board with these choices, explaining, “Arg is really into old-fashioned names, and I think he wants a boy – I want a girl, obviously.”
The GC does need to consider the legacy of her divaship, after all.

Here he is on Loose Women just a few days ago, he pretty much still looks the same minus the hair change, it's now flung to the back rather than the side. Following his break-up from his on screen love, Lydia Bright, he took sometime off from TOWIE but now he is back!

Quintessential Essex glamour is the best way to describe this picture but she definitely wins the best glow up...

He is a TOWIE original. He left the show 3 years after first appearing on our TV screens.
18 of 20THE GLOW UP - Kirk Norcross now
Not much has changed, except a couple of wrinkles here and there - yikes. To be fair, he is a dad to 2 children now, looks like he doesn't get much sleep now a days. Oh, he is also an author now.
19 of 20Maria Fowler in 2011
She had a very short time on TOWIE after she was dubbed "just a f***ing extra" by Kirk - harsh af right?
20 of 20THE GLOW UP - Maria Fowler now
We use the term 'Now" very loosely with Maria, this picture is from early 2017 - that's because we can't find any recent pics as she is keeping it on the down low. We do know that is she is a makeup artist now, at least she is doing something.
During her chat with heat mag, Gem also predicted huge success for her new book, admitting she thinks it will be bigger than The Bible.
“I think this book is bigger than The Bible, and do you know why? Because it’s going to spread cheer like The Bible.”
She added: “I cannot stop reading it.”
