Gemma Collins reveals man screamed at her to ‘get naked’ during awkward spa trip blunder in Poland
GEMMA Collins was left mortified after she was told to “get naked” during a spa trip to Poland.
The former Towie star, 41, booked a last-minute trip earlier this month, just 24 hours after returning from filming Channel 4 show The Greatest Snowman in Austria.
Gemma was quick to explore the tourist sites including the Christmas markets and enjoyed some R’n’R at a Thermae Spa.
The Essex babe said “Two hours from Poland in Zakopane, there was a Therma Spa.
“So off I go to the Thermae Spa, I travelled two hours in the car with my friend.
“She decides to go in an oxygen barrier where she breathes in oxygen, I was up for breathing in oxygen – apparently it makes you look younger, and it has all these amazing health benefits.

“I go into the chamber and literally my ears started popping, I was like ‘hell no’, I do not want my ears to go funny.
“So, I go back into the spa and asked if I could go into the sauna and the girl goes ‘yeah’.
“So, I bust out a GC swimming costume and I go into the sauna, but this man starts shouting at me to get naked…’get naked, get naked, you’re not allowed in here, get naked’ he says to me.
“I was like oh my god, what am I being filmed here? Is this some sort of joke?
“Anyway, obviously I speak English, the guy speaks Polish, I’m in total shock looking around at everyone and they’ve all got towels around them.
“I then realise there were all different parts to the sauna and Thermae Spa.
“I ended up in the naked part, they wanted me to go stark you know what naked.”
Startled by the incident, Gemma refused to strip off and was quick to leave the sauna, but later laughed about the awkward blunder.
“I was like ‘no I’m not getting naked in here’, that would be everyone’s Christmases come at once,” she continued on her GC podcast.
“So, I got out of there and rang my friend telling her that they want me to strip naked., two hours later we were laughing our heads off.”
It comes after reality favourite Gemma made a Christmas confession while admitting to feeling ‘pressure’ amid the cost-of-living crisis.
She admitted she “doesn’t feel Christmassy,” and explained the poignant reason why.
The star told her fans: “I’ve got to just talk about one thing that’s going on. I don’t feel Christmassy. I don’t know why I don’t feel Christmassy.
“I’ve been watching the Christmas movies, I’ve been eating the mince pies and I’ve even put in my phone for Santa Claus to give me a call. I’ve done it all.”
Gemma also admitted to feeling this way due to the cost-of-living crisis, which the star has addressed in the past on her podcast.
She added: “I’m putting a huge amount of pressure on myself to feel Christmassy but at the end of the day there’s a lot going on out there.
“Cost of living crisis and people’s electricity going up.”
Gemma, who is a millionaire off the back of reality TV, has pleaded with her fans to stop giving presents this year and help out those in need instead.
She’s also decided to keep things simple this year to be a little more cost-effective.
