She surprised viewers at home when she successfully performed her routine to Beyoncé's 'Crazy In Love' during the first show of this year's Dancing On Ice, but now it looks like TOWIE star Gemma Collins could be about to QUIT the show for good.

Gemma, who is partnered with professional skater Matt Evers, was called 'unprofessional' by show host Holly Willoughby after she reportedly turned up late on Sunday and then took a nap backstage.

Speaking to former Love Island winner and this year's Dancing On Ice reporter, Kem Cetinay, Holly and Phillip revealed the whole studio were waiting for her to begin the dress rehearsal, before they found her taking a nap.

Holly then said, "I love Gemma, I’m a big fan of hers and I love her on the show. But I do think there has to be a bit of professionalism that comes into any work you do, just a bit of pride in your work."

But now, after hearing Holly's comments, The GC is reportedly ready to 'quit' the show after being 'left in tears'.

According to The Sun, a source close to Gemma said, "She’s devastated by everything that’s been said about her and is threatening to quit. She’s feeling there’s a conspiracy to bring down their biggest star.”

With rehearsals in full swing ahead of the third live show on Sunday night, will Gemma quit? 🤔
