Gemma Collins was recently force to remove a series of images from her Gemma Collins Collection website after the TOWIE star was accused of photoshopping her head onto another model’s body.

According to the Daily Star, model Katie Green is said to be "furious" following claims Gemma edited her own head onto professional photos taken by Photographer Lily Limited.

A source told the publication: "[Lily is] furious and thinks it’s a total infringement.

"It’s a terribly bad photoshop. A child could see it’s a fake. You can tell they’ve just stuck Gemma’s head on Katie’s body."

A representative for Gemma later told the publication: "The images were used in good faith by Gemma.

"An external firm assured her that they owned the copyright and had commissioned the shoots."

But now another model has accused Gemma of using images of her in another photoshopping scandal.

After being the first one to quit the show, she stormed the showbiz world with her own reality TV show, starred in Celebrity Big Brother and she is now reported to be worth over £5 million. She also welcomed her first born child, Polly, from ex-boyfriend Bradley Wright. There is no doubt she has been a busy lady.

Not a major change but the most noticeable thing is that widow's peak, it completely vanished, hair transplant maybe? - He is now happily married to Michelle Keegan. He is actually doing really well for himself (go on Mark!), he has his own radio show, he used to be the face of Take Me Out: The Gossip and he ventured across the bond, and he works with Mario Lopez on Extra.

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!

THE 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.

The Sun reports that Kate Louise Smith, a plus size model and songwriter, has called Gemma out for altering photos and is ‘insulted’ the star edited her image.

“Why Gemma and her team took it upon themselves to alter the images is a bit strange,” she said according to the publication.

“I am really passionate about body image and women feeling confident in themselves and their natural body shape. I’ve been an ambassador for the subject for many years.

“From that perspective, rather than being mortified, I’m just insulted. It’s very intrusive and it’s an odd thing to do.”

Kate’s images were taken from the same shoot in Leicester as Katie (who previously hit out at Gemma). Taken for Lily Limited and part of the Fashion Book, the company supplies styles for Gemma Collins Boutique in Essex.

Gemma’s reps have not yet responded to the Kate’s claims.
