Gemma Collins is engaged again as she accepts second proposal from Rami Hawash

The Only Way is Essex star Gemma Collins has confirmed that she is engaged to Rami Hawash.

The 40-year-old reality TV star reunited with her former fiancé during lockdown, seven years after breaking off their original engagement.

There was speculation after she was seen wearing a ring on her wedding finger, and she later confirmed the rumours while speaking to The Times.

Confirming that the couple were engaged, she said: "Yeah, but we can’t really come out and say anything yet because Ram was married before and his paperwork has not come through, so until that’s officially signed, we’ve not said anything.

"They’ve not been together for two years. I know her, she’s got a partner, she’s as good as gold. There’s a child involved, he’s only three, obviously I love him to death.

"But until that paperwork’s signed I can’t come out."

The couple first started dating in 2011 and got engaged for the first time in 2013.

But after they split in 2014, she moved on with TOWIE co-star James 'Arg' Argent, only to have her heart broken again.

It was during the lockdown that Gemma and Rami reconnected and she's been incredibly loved up ever since.
