It seems that we’re going to have to wait a bit longer for Gemma Collins to launch her music career as music producer Naughty Boy has pulled the plug on their duet.

The pair originally planned to collaborate on a Christmas track before production was delayed and they decided on releasing a summer anthem together. However, Naughty Boy has now pulled out of the collaboration but wishes her all the best.

He said, “I love the GC. I was going to do something with her as she can sing, but I have my priorities.

“I think she has potential, but it has to come from her.”

The pair met at The BRITs last year and had been spending increasing amounts of time together with the music producer even staying over during her break from James Argent.

Gemma dated Rami Hawash on and off for three years between 2011 and 2014.

Gemma sparked rumours that she'd got back together with Rami in March 2017 when she was spotted wearing the engagement ring he'd bought her, but they split for good later in 2017.

Sadly, Gemma caught wind that Arg had been bad-mouthing her weight behind her back, and confronted him in Marbella in the summer of 2012, "You've been going around discussing what happened between us. Well let me tell you something now, you don't ever disrespect a girl like that again. Take a good look at this, you ain't ever gonna get this candy!"

At Arg's 30th birthday party, he stood up and practically declared his love for Gemma, telling the congregation, "Gemma you're so lovely to me, you're always there whenever I need you. You treat me with such respect, you're kind to me and you make me laugh so much." They then had a lovely kiss.

The GC also seems like she’s got her hands full at the moment with the Gemma Collins collection and taking part in Virgin Media’s Get Moving Challenge.

In addition, her work schedule is likely to get even busier as she's rumoured to be in with a chance of landing a spot on Strictly's US counterpart Dancing With The Stars.

This news comes after the TOWIE star, 39, was supposedly snubbed by Strictly Come Dancing for being too ‘low-calibre’.

Gemma appears keen to crack the US after being featured in an Orange is The New Black advert in a cameo role. She’s also apparently planning to launch her own lifestyle brand after trademarking her name.
