Fans rushed to comment on the post, with many praising Gemma for getting back up and carrying on after her fall.
One person said: “Well done for getting back up. I don’t think I could have. Respect.”

On Sunday night, Gemma’s boyfriend James ‘Arg’ Argent posted a video to his Instagram Stories showing Gemma’s bruised legs.
In the clip, he said: “Gemma’s legs are terrible, look. All around her knees. They’re in a bad, bad way.”
Moving the camera to her left knee, he added: “That one isn’t that bad. But this one [her right knee], I’m worried about.”
It comes after he admitted he was worried Gemma was knocked unconscious after her fall.
After the show, Arg shared a snap of himself, Gemma and Matt on the ice.
Arg wrote: “I LOVE YOU @gemmacollins1.
“When I saw her fall like that face first I honestly thought she might be unconscious or lost some teeth! The way she got up & carried on was AMAZING!!!”
He added: “You worked so hard this week GC & have done us so proud! You’ve improved so much!”
