It wasn't the best of weekend's for TOWIE star Gemma Collins! Despite picking her up highest score yet after her performance onDancing On Ice, The GC took a very painful-looking tumble, which resulted in some nasty looking injuries.

And now, after Gemma revealed she was 'devastated and embarrassed' after the fall, the reality star has been pictured getting pushed around in a wheelchair by her boyfriend James 'Arg' Argent.

In photos obtained by The Daily Mirror, Arg can be seen pushing his girlfriend around, before carefully helping her get into a car. It's not looking good for Gemma who is due to perform again on Sunday night's show, after being voted through at the expense of Didi Conn, despite finishing last on the leader board.

According to reports Gemma was deemed 'unfit' for rehearsals alongside her professional partner Matt Evers on Monday, with worries that she's now going to have to pull out of the competition due to her injuries.

After her fall on Sunday night, Arg took to his Instagram Story to reveal the extent of his girlfriend's injuries, saying, "Gemma's legs terrible, look. All round her knees, they're in a bad, bad way. This one isn't so bad, but that one I'm worried about."

Gemma later broke her silence on the nasty fall, revealing she's 'in a lot of pain'. The 37-year-old told her fans, 'Absolutely devastated & embarrassed, My heart is broken ❤️ but when I went down I thought of @gypsyking101 Tyson Fury and knew I had to get back up & carry on! Can’t thank you enough for your support on social media and picking up the phone to vote! Im in a lot of pain but bring on fantasy week!!! 👸⛸'. [sic]

Although Dancing On Ice bosses haven't yet confirmed whether Gemma will skate on Sunday night, fans are wondering if she'll be given a 'free week', like her co-star Ryan Sidebottom.

Ryan and his partner Brandee Malto were ruled out of last Sunday's show after Ryan picked up a Grade I adductor strain. ITV said in a statement, “Ryan Sidebottom has been ruled out of performing in tomorrow night’s show (Sunday 27th January) on medical grounds as a result of a Grade I adductor strain. As a result he will receive a bye to next weekend’s show.”
