Inside Gemma Collins’ lavish birthday party she’s thrown for her dad
GEMMA Collins pulled out all the stops to treat her dad to a lavish birthday celebration.
The former Towie star, 41, marked the special day by organising a dinner party for her beloved father Alan.
The TV favourite decorated the living room at her £1.3m Essex mansion with blue and gold balloons, matching dinner table decor and a huge personalised name sign.
Gemma pushed the boat out with a special cake in the shape of legendary 60s pirate radio station ship Caroline.
The celebrations come after Gemma recently showed off her three and a half stone weight loss in the maxi dress as she posed with father.
She beamed as she cuddled her dad, who looked smart in a blue shirt.

One fan then added: “Happy birthday Gemma’s Dad,” as a third continued: “Happy birthday to your dad .”
Gemma has often spoken out about the impact of her parents on her life.
Following his Covid-19 diagnosis during the pandemic, Gemma pleaded with her fans to stay at home and keep adhering to the rules.
She told the media that he said he would “rather be dead” than fight the virus.
Meanwhile, speaking to YOU in 2018, Gemma revealed that her dad keeps tabs of her money and if she wants to splash out it has to go past him first.
Last year, she stunned Piers Morgan when she admitted her dad “controls everything” and gives her an allowance.
She revealed her dad now gives her a £3,000 a month allowance after she blew £50,000 in just two months.
Gemma told Piers: “I’m a spender – my dad wrote me up as an absolute disgrace, I’d spent £50,000 in two months up in Knightsbridge.
“It was £1,000 a day over the course of two months, but I was going through a bit of a hard time.”
She confessed: “I felt disgusted in myself; I went absolutely crazy in Gucci – shoes, bags, coats- I was staying in the Dorchester more or less every night of the week, £600 a pop, and I was wining and dining in there.
“I got absolutely massive, I could barely walk – it was kind of like self destruction in a way, and I’m pleased that my dad took my card off me as I am telling you now I’d have ended up in trouble.”

Gemma went on to tell Piers that her dad controls “everything”, but she asks for extra money if she is going on holiday or on a shopping trip to London, fearing that her card will be declined.
Admitting that it had been declined in Gucci before, she explained: “I get a budget, I get an allowance each month – only £3,000.”
