But Gemma looked happy and glamorous as she reunited with her man and his mum in the sunshine today for their allocated hour of exercise amid the coronavirus outbreak.

The telly favourite opted for her pink and blue Nike leggings, teamed with a matching top, huge shades, and Yeezy footwear.

Towie star James covered his face with a mask to protect himself from COVID-19, and wore shorts with a puffer jacket zipped up to his neck.

Gemma has had a difficult time with boyfriend James Argent  – who was in rehab this year – over the past twelve months.

The former Dancing On Ice star was left devastated after her troubled beau was rushed to hospital for the second time in two months in December.

A source said at the time: “Gemma is worried sick about Arg, when she’s not with him at his home she is ringing him 24/7 to check that he is OK.

“She is madly in love with him him and has supported him tirelessly for two years, she has been left devastated by his relapse.”

The couple’s relationship famously started back in 2012 when the stars were on Towie together.

However, she admitted she is vying for marriage last month when she took to Instagram and said she’s close to getting down on one knee herself.

She had even hinted that she’d taken matters into her own hands as she shared a video clip of herself from Dubai on February 28th.

“Did someone say… leap year?” she said.

“This day doesn’t come for another four years so let’s make it count.”

According to tradition, women wanting to propose can do so on February 29 – which occurs every four years.

Before that, Gemma sparked rumours she had already got engaged after teasing fans with a picture of herself in a wedding dress.
