Gemma Collins slams claims she's using diet pills and threatens legal action

Gemma Collins has slammed claims she's using diet pills to aid her weight loss and is now threatening legal action.

Gemma, 38, has shed over two and a half stone since starring in Dancing on Ice and she's kept up her health and fitness regime in LA, as she films her new reality show Diva Forever.

But as Gemma's frame continues to shrink companies have looked to cash in, claiming she's been using their products to lose weight and now Gemma has hit back.

The adverts claim Gemma has been using Keto tablet s to shift the pounds - something the former Towie star says is categorically false.

Sharing screenshots of some of the adverts to her Instagram page, she captioned the post: "Lots of people contacting me re certain products thinking I’m using them.

"My LAWYERS are on to you right now and I look forward to receiving thousands !!!

"DO NOT ASSOCIATE my NAME with your products when I am not behind them ............. I’m copyright © and patented.... EVERYONE be AWARE.

"I have no association with any of these products .... ladies guys do not fall into this thinking it’s what I am using I am not x  #betterbeware ."

Fans were quick to back Gemma, with many of them sending messages of support.

One said: "Well said Gemma what is wrong with these companies they are like leaches you are doing amazing ur hard work is definitely paying off u look fab."

"This is so disrespectful! Good luck to everyone being taken in by such a strong incredible human being!!  Love you GC."
