The couple ended their relationship earlier this year in May after Gary was accused of doing the dirty on Emma.
In an explosive rant on Twitter Emma claimed Gaz had dumped her by text out of the blue and told her to move her stuff out of their home with “no explanation”.
She wrote: “When he’s been filming Geordie Shore he decided to send me a TEXT ending things, telling me to move my stuff out of OUR home that I furnished and paid for without explanation.
“After begging me to go to Australia with him and making me leave my career, I still find out he still managed to cheat on me throughout our relationship and continually lie.”
She added: “I have actually seen this as a blessing in disguise as within days I’m so much happier without him manipulating and controlling me.
“A leopard never changes its spots and Gary will always be a selfish narcissist who cares about no one but his one night stands and himself.”

But in June this year the couple decided to put everything behind them and give their relationship another go.
A source told The Sun at the time Gary was trying to get back in Emma’s “good books”.
The insider explained: “Gaz has been working hard at getting back in Emma’s good books. Their split was tough on both of them.
“It was a big mess and with Gaz being stuck inside the Geordie Shore house – things only got worse.
“Since he’s come out the pair have been in touch and they’ve been working on getting back on track.
“It’s early days for them both but their mates think they could get back together in the future.”
