Gemma Atkinson 'warned' about having more children with Gorka Marquez

Gemma Atkinson has revealed her mum has warned her not to have more children with her partner Gorka Marquez anytime soon.

Gemma, 36, has a one-year-old daughter Mia with Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka and the pair are due to be reunited this weekend following the final of the show.

Gemma chatted on Friday on Channel 4's Steph’s Packed Lunch about her excitement at finally being reunited with Gorka after almost three months.

The dancer will return home on Sunday after 87 days of being apart from his family while adhering to strict Covid guidelines as he participated in the BBC show - reports Mirror Online.

However, Gemma also revealed that she had received some words of warning from her mum.

Gemma said: “My mum’s already said to me, Mia’s too young yet, no more siblings, wait until she’s older… She’s given me the warning!"

While on the show, the proud mum was also quizzed about who she thought might be raising the Strictly Glitterball this weekend.

She said: “This is the first year where I can’t pinpoint it… It’s so close, they’ve all been so good.

"Jamie’s got so much enthusiasm, Bill’s been on his journey, Maisie and HRVY have been really consistent and got better and better each week.

Gemma explained that while its going to be a tough call on who wins, she is backing Gorka and Maisie for obvious reasons.

She added: "It’s anyone’s game, anyone can win it. Obviously, I’m rooting for Gorka and Maisie and all my votes will be going for them.”

Gemma has been a cheerleader for Gorka and Maisie as they continue to pull out all the stops in this year's competition.

Just days ago, the professional dancer shared an adorable video showing little Mia watching Gorka on television.

Steph’s Packed Lunch returns on Monday 4 January at 12.30pm on Channel 4.
