Gemma Collins, 41, is dreaming of an income-filled getaway in the sun.

The former TOWIE star hasn’t been able to enjoy a vacation for nearly three years, and thanks to a hectic work schedule, it doesn’t look like reality will change anytime soon.

On Tuesday morning, the Essex beauty took to her Instagram Stories to film her manager surprising her with a home visit to discuss her busy career plans.

“Surprise visit from Mark this morning,” Gemma told her 2.2 million followers as his manager stood in her sparkling kitchen.

Mark quickly joined in, waving some documents and adding: “With your huge schedule for the year!”

“Oh Mark, please…” Gemma pleads in the cheeky clip.

“I want a vacation. I haven’t had a vacation in two and a half years.”

Gemma may want to fly abroad, but that doesn’t stop the star from enjoying all the pleasures the UK has to offer.

Earlier this week, the reality TV legend embarked on a safari with his partner Rami Hawash and son Tristan.

When the three toured Woburn Safari Park in Bedfordshire, Gemma donned a stylish pair of animal print leggings and a super-warm padded jacket for a day out among the wildlife.

The self-confessed diva even shared a photo of herself with a ranger named Bob, as they prepared to board a van to tour the grounds.

Last year, Gemma revealed to the Mirror her burgeoning romance with businessman Rami.

After having a tumultuous relationship with Rami over the past decade, at one point being briefly engaged in 2013, we asked the blonde beauty why these days are so different. difference between couples.

Their engagement ended in 2014, just weeks before they got married, and since they split, Rami has become a father to four-year-old Tristan.

“You know? I’m on the moon,” she revealed to us while toasting about her reunion with her ex-fiance.

“I’m so happy. I’m the happiest person I’ve ever been. I’m so in love.”

“The important thing is, he has a lot of respect for me as a woman. He never puts me down,” the 40-year-old continued.

“This person I love absolutely adores me and never puts me down – he doesn’t speak ill of me. I am his Queen and we are very happy,” Gemma said.

“Obviously we’re over 10 years old now but we have a respectable relationship. He loves every aspect of me, and more importantly, he respects me so much. I wouldn’t wish for it. What if he doesn’t. Me I’m in a very, very happy relationship.”
