She wanted to give long-term love interest Arg a final chance to sample her “candy” before attempting to find a new romance on E4 show Celebs Go Dating.

“She privately asked to share a hotel room with him so they could have one final night together – and it being his 30th birthday gave them all the more reason to celebrate.

“Bosses were reluctant to give Gemma her own way but anything could have happened between them when the cameras stopped rolling.”

She said: “I really like the name Isabella, but I also like the name Allegra too because Donatella Versace called her child Allegra, and I like Donatella Versace.
