A new future awaits Gemma

Gemma Collins, a household name in the entertainment industry, has voiced her sentiment of outgrowing Essex, the place that played a significant role in her rise to fame. Citing the town as 'toxic,' Gemma is seeking a fresh start in a location before she ties the knot with Rami Hawash. Knightsbridge, one of London's most upscale areas, has captured Gemma's attention. Known for its luxurious ambiance and high-end shopping district, Knightsbridge seems like the perfect destination to embark on her next chapter.

What makes Knightsbridge such an irresistible choice for Gemma Collins? According to The Mail, the answer lies in her love for the vibrant energy and world-class shopping experiences the area offers. Harrods, the iconic department store, holds a special place in Gemma's heart, often finding her browsing its luxurious halls.

Gemma envisions herself enjoying the convenience of having these gems at her doorstep and being part of the exciting atmosphere the area exudes. She expressed her excitement for the countryside landscape of the area:

'I’m loving country life in the summer. Listen, there will always be a bit of Knightsbridge fever in me. I just love being in London. I wouldn’t mind a pied-à-terre – Cadogan Gardens here I come!'

As Gemma Collins looks forward to the next phase of her life, she has a vision for her future home beyond the glitz and glamour. Hosting mum and baby groups is one of her aspirations, but Gemma, true to her unique style, desires to do so in the most fashionable and exclusive manner. With a touch of humor, she mentions her preference for Knightsbridge.

She told The Sun she is also considering moving to Surrey:

'I've totally outgrown Essex. It's toxic. I really like it in Surrey, Sam Faiers lives there. I do love Wales and I would consider living there.'
