Gemma Collins’ brand new series of her show Diva Forever returned to screens last night – but it has divided the nation.
The show follows the Dancing On Ice star’s day-to-day life as she manages her boutique, appears on TV shows and enjoys quality time with her on-off boyfriend James ‘Arg’ Argent.
But even before the first advert break, Gemma was slammed for being “rude” as viewers saw her tell the camera crew she had “too much to do” to film for the show.

She then told them to leave her boutique as she ripped her microphone off.
She told the crew: “Go and have a break now because I’ve got business stuff to crack on with.”
One crew member is heard saying: “Gem, can we do one more thing please?”
Gemma replied: “No. I’ve just got too much to do.
“I’m the star of this show and if you want the best out of me, you’ll get the best out of me but don’t hurry me up.
“And I should have an assistant on this show that gets me my tea. I shouldn’t be getting my own tea.”
As she shut the door, Gemma told the crew: “All the best. Take care guys, see ya.”
Viewers were divided over the show with many calling Gemma’s behaviour “rude”.
One person said on Twitter: “#DivaForever what an awful individual Gemma Collins is.
“Rude and arrogant with a loud mouth. She thinks she shouldn’t open doors or make her own tea. Who does she think she is. Sadly fame has gone to her head. We live in very sad times.”
