Gemma Collins to start filming reality show Diva Forever

Gemma Collins is set to start filming reality show \'Diva Forever\'.

The former \'The Only Way Is Essex\' star is soon to begin working on her own fly-on-the-wall ITVBe series, which will air later this year, and network bosses are convinced the show will be a hit because of Gemma\'s ever-increasing popularity.

A TV insider told The Sun newspaper\'s Bizarre TV column: "The reaction from viewers to her show had already got producers considering raising The GC\'s profile.

"Then when she created such huge interest on \'Dancing On Ice\', ITV bosses were convinced she had to have her own series."

The former \'Celebrity Big Brother\' contestant\'s new series will be similar to her previous one-off reality show \'Diva Espana\', which had fans wanting more last summer, and the bubbly blonde was said to have been showered with offers for her own show.

\'Diva Forever\' will see Gemma returning to Essex and Marbella and will also follow her adventures as she lives the high life in London and Los Angeles.

Gemma\'s reality show \'Diva Espana\' - which aired last August - gave fans a behind the scenes look at her relationship with on/off boyfriend James \'Arg\' Argent.

The show also showcased members of her family and included her \'TOWIE\' co-star Chloe Sims.

When filming began for the show in June, Gemma was ecstatic that her "dream" to feature in her own series had finally been fulfilled.

She previously gushed: "I\'m so humbled and so, so grateful to finally fulfil my dream I had when I first started out."

Gemma is also set to release a song with Naughty Boy after penning heartbreak tune, \'Come Home\'.

The 34-year-old music producer - who has worked with Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson, and Cheryl - has tipped the Essex native to make it big in the music industry.
