GEMMA Collins was absolutely beaming as she spent time in Essex with new fiancé Rami Hawash - but left her fancy new bling at home.

The star was seen in all-black sports gear and a gilet as she ran errands with Rami, after returning from the Maldives on a romantic break.

Going make-up free, the self-proclaimed diva, 43, spent time with pals and couldn't stop smiling as she spent time in town.

However, the only thing missing from her outfit was her fancy new engagement ring, which she got last week during a beach proposal.

Businessman Rami - who has proposed to Gemma twice before during their 10-year on/off history - flew out hundreds of roses and fancy cakes, before the words "will you marry me?" lit up on the sand.

A source told The Sun: "Gemma had no idea, she thought they were having a relaxing dinner on the beach, she had no makeup on.

"It was a beautiful natural moment and she couldn’t have wished for anything more."

She later joked she "didn't even have a bra on" as she was so blindsided by the proposal.

The ring, which is described as a "massive sparkler" was presented to her in a shell.

Reunited with her friends and family, Gemma was seen spending time with her nephew, Hayden.

Wrapped up against the cold, the group were all seen in fluffy coats as they spent time around town.

Details about their upcoming nuptials have remained strictly under wraps - but two years ago Gemma admitted she already had some ideas in mind.

Speaking to Judi Love on The Big Breakfast in 2022, Gemma compared her and Rami's love to that of another long-time couple - JLo and Ben Affleck, who got married nearly 20 years after they first dated.

"Darling it aint gona be low key," she said. "Every time I see Jen and Ben that is me and Rami all over.

"So I'm going to ring J-Lo and see if she'll lend me one of her outfits for the evening, so J-Lo I'm putting the call in baby."
