Gemma Collins stepped out in style this week after slamming cruel trolls who commented on her body.

The 42-year-old Diva Forever star looked out of this world in a cream-coloured silk jumpsuit and light pink Valentino sandals as she showed up at The Dorchester Hotel in London on Friday. In case the weather changed, she tied a green Gucci jumper around her waist.

Gemma completed the look with a teal Chanel purse and white-rimmed sunglasses. The TOWIE star was at the hotel to attend the Fortnum & Mason launch and looked happy as showed off her pearly whites for the camera. Gemma was joined by her mum Joan and good friends Jedward.

She also took to Instagram to share pictures from the out and told her followers: "I take it back! London was actually getting Christmas on and thank you to @jepicpics for making my mum's day. Also to all the staff Fortnum's who I think is the best store in London for service and product and the team are INCREDIBLE always treat us so well."

Gemma's outing comes after she publicly addressed the hateful comments she'd received online but said she is proud of her achievements and won't let trolls dampen her mood. Despite her huge success in her career and life, Gemma expressed how she is a victim of online hate - and at times she has been turned away from jobs because of her size.

She wrote: "YOU are a split second away from always changing the direction of your life. I hope this video inspires you. A girl from Romford who was invited to meet the KING and QUEEN make all your dreams come true daily we have one life !!! Enjoy it and go for it."

Gemma added: "AND to all the people along the way who told me NO …..spoke rubbish about me…..said unkind things…brands who said I was too fat…talent agencies who said you need to lose weight we don’t want you on our books or websites people who gossip about me or run me down or abuse me on socials …. THANK YOU."

"Because I always followed my own path and all the NOs made me stronger …. I don’t see the KING or QUEEN inviting you ….My point is the worst anyone is going to say is NO yes it can knock your self-esteem or confidence for a split second but remember who you are inside and your dream !!! And it shall always overcome," she continued.
