I love my stepson to death but I won’t spoil him, says millionaire Gemma Collins
GEMMA Collins has opened up about being a stepmum to boyfriend Rami Hawash's son Tristan.
The 40-year-old has insisted that - despite being a millionaire - she won't be splashing her fortune on the little boy.
Discussing her plans for a huge family Christmas, Gemma said: "[Tristan's] going to be so excited and I've actually already bought all of his Christmas presents.
"He's the first one I bought for, so I've had to put his presents up in the loft."
Gemma added to : "But with children it's best not to spoil them too much because I think kids need to understand the value of stuff."
And, although they haven't worked out the details yet, Gemma insists she'll be spending time with Tristan over the festive period.
She said: "I've got a really good relationship with his mum and we all love Tristan to death. We haven't properly finalised the last details, but definitely [I'll be seeing him]."
Gemma and Rami, 44, grew close again during lockdown after splitting in 2014 following a three-year relationship.

The Towie star recently sparked rumours they are planning to tie the knot - stepping out wearing her engagement ring from Rami's first proposal over Christmas 2013.
Gemma has always been open about her desire to have a family, and recently gushed over spending time with Tristan.
Sharing a snap of her cuddled up to the toddler, she wrote: "No feeling like it. My little prince, being a step mummy is so rewarding love is free and so rewarding nothing can put a price on this.
"Auntie stepmum and hopefully god will give me a gift one day but I am so happy with what I have right now #sharingthelove and a HUGE THANK YOU to his lovely mummy for letting me look after him."
