'My diet has still been on point so physically, doing fewer and shorter training sessions hasn't really affected me that much. If anything it's had a positive effect in that it's mentally got me hyped to go at it full throttle again tomorrow! Rest and change is good... We all need it sometimes'
Gym addict Gemma was dating personal trainer Olly Foster in 2015 and credited his tough excercise regime for transforming her body from a glamour model shape into that of a proud fitness fanatic.
The actress said in March that she is now 11st - and proud - but in an interview with The Mirror she confessed to having body hang-ups like everyone else.

She said: 'The last time I weighed myself was at the gym and I was about 11st. I remember telling someone and they couldn’t believe I was that weight.
Gemma continued: 'I am very happy now. I still get insecure, like most girls. My legs will always be my problem area, that’s where we hold weight in my family. 
'I have kind of learned to love them in a way. They have been with me for 31 years carrying 11 stone around, so they are doing something right.
