Gemma Collins' 2024 baby plans

Gemma Collins is hoping to have a baby in 2024.

The 42-year-old former 'TOWIE' star has suffered three miscarriages over the years, and has spoken openly about her struggles to fall pregnant with fiancé Rami Hawash, 48, but Gemma is hopeful that 2024 is the year that "the GC's child will be born".

She told MailOnline: "Well, I was meant to have an appointment the other day and the doctor cancelled, so I'm starting it picking it up again in February. Hopefully, in 2024, The GC's child will be born.

"There's nothing to say at the minute. We're literally at the very, very first stage, and, hopefully, but yeah.

"I just think I'm at a time in my life. It's the right time, so let's see. If it's meant to be, it would be."

And, Gemma has big plans for the birth, if she does fall pregnant.

She said: "Definitely we'll be giving birth next year at the Portland Hospital. I mean, I've got to let the legendary blood live on.

"I'm going to have it at the Portland [private hospital]. I'm going to do a press call. I saw David Beckham out there when Victoria had the baby. And I'll be sending me out to say mother and child are doing well, and then I'll appear like the Royals do.

"I mean, my child is going to be a gift from God. Everyone's wanted me to have a baby for so long, haven't they?"

And, Gemma was inspired by Tana Ramsay, who recently gave birth again at 49.

She said: "The Tana Ramsay news was the greatest thing to wake up to. Incredible.

"It really made me think positively about my future and kind of took the pressure off. I don't think anyone knew she was pregnant, so it was a lovely surprise, but I got butterflies in my stomach when I saw it."
