She retweeted Katie's recent tweet revealing she'd pulled out of the upcoming Boxing With The Stars event, and wrote: "I'll fight ya katie 👊🏽 😘"
Katie hasn't reacted to the tweet and it's received a mixed response from Jemma's fans.
One wrote: "Just let by gones be by gones ✌🏼️ between you & @KatiePrice."
While another said: "Yesss! Jem would crush her!"
"What does she have against you? I think she's jealous," posted a third.

Speaking to New! magazine, she said: "She ruins people’s lives. I don’t wish bad upon anyone, but I can’t feel sorry for her because she can’t be helped.
"She’s a b**** and until she stops being a b**** she won’t change so this will keep happening."

Remembering her time on Katie's reality show Signed... six years ago, Jemma continued: "She’s very selfish and self-centred, and when I used to live with her those around her were very much, 'Yes, Katie.'
"Everything is about her. You feel like you can’t have an opinion. You can’t do or say anything.
"Those closest to her just live in her shadow like her slaves. She can make them do anything."
