Gemma Collins is "really keen" to do the next series of ‘Celebs Go Dating’.
The ‘Only Way is Essex’ star is desperate to sign up to the forthcoming instalment of the E4 dating show because she’s hopeful that it can help her find her future husband.
A source said: "Gemma is keen to go on ‘Celebs Go Dating’. She has seen lots of her friends and colleagues go on the show and thinks it will help her find a boyfriend."
However, the 36-year-old reality TV beauty has already hit an obstacle as bosses aren’t so keen to sign her up to the show as they don’t think they’ll be able to find the type of men the curvaceous blonde tends to go for.
An insider explained to The Sun newspaper: "The show’s producers aren’t quite as keen. They worry that finding the sort of men Gemma is interested in would be difficult as she known for dating bad boys and criminals.
"She would obviously make great value on the show though."
Gemma’s determination to find a boyfriend stems from the fact she’d really like to have a family of her own but she recently admitted that a man won’t stop her from achieving her dreams of becoming a mother as she’ll do it "on her own" if need be.
She said: "I still hope. If I don’t ever meet that man, I will go onto have a baby on my own because I do think that I have a lot of love to give and I could give a child a lovely life. If I go ahead and do it on my own, and as much as I love the dream of the whole family unit, all sitting round the table, if it doesn’t happen I will go ahead and do it on my own. Nothing is going to stop me because the feeling of that unfulfillment.
"I will have a child, I just don’t know how it will happen yet."
Although the television personality was told by a medical expert that freezing her eggs would be unsuccessful, she would "never rule out" adoption.
