Gemma Collins on Experiencing Urinary Incontinence | This Morning
Ойын-сауық
Gemma Collins, AKA the GC, is well known for appearing on a whole host of reality TV shows after first hitting our screens on The Only Way Is Essex in 2011. Today though, Gemma joins us to discuss a much more personal and important topic. Gemma has experienced urinary incontinence for as long as she can remember. And she’s not alone with 1 in 3 women also struggling every day with incontinence. Gemma joins us on the sofa to share her experiences of incontinence and why she wants to empower women to talk more openly about the topic and break down taboos.

I’m sorry Gemma is going through this, usually more common for women who have had pregnancies. I was suffering the same, I was mortified. It was every day. Then, I lost 5 stone, and like a miracle … no more incontinence. A year later and I’m still incontinence free. So, just wondering, if weight loss might help Gemma. X
Good on Gemma for being open & honest about it! I have tried in the past to stop mine with Pelvic Floor Exercises & it has improved but as She said, You need to keep up the the PFEs to keep it in check! I wear Tena pads everyday! I think that Mine is Stress Incontinence! I wet my bed a while ago as I was very Anxious!! It’s not quite so bad as that anymore thankfully
Dermot’s face when he asked “100 good Doc” 😫🤣😫🤣 I love Gemma, what a hoot!! Always looks very glamorous and wears beautiful colours!!
“It’s all about the core DerMOTT”
I guess... Whatever gets you invited to a morning show
Unfortunately this is something a lot of women suffer from, i suffered in silence for many years, but it is a good thing that it is now spoken about more freely, we need someone like Gemma Collins to raise awareness, yes, she is loud and over dramatic, but we need this to stop it being a taboo subject. The adverts that are on tv at the moment, are a much more subtle way of raising awareness
She had to google discreet pads !! 😂😂😂😂
It's literally proven obesity puts pressure on everything, including your bladder. I can't take any advice off someone who's not a healthy weight.
She’s so funny and honest. Love how sweet Alison and Dermot are during this interview. Bring back Gemma to our tv screens!
Poor Dermot being there for this!
5:32 doctor trying to explain some important info and Gemma has to interrupt to make it about herself, so self centred
Im gonna die lol 😆
I wish Gemma would "rein it in a bit" with the "I thought I'ss gonna die." Seriously, though. It makes a mockery for many "women AND men" for whatever reason, heart attack victims, cancer diagnosis, being abducted, chained in a torture dungeon. Gemma gets a deep cut in the big brother house and thinks she's going to die. Gemma, seriously. Just stop and think for a change, girl.

Interestingly, England has a very high number of reflexologists. This issue can easily be solved with reflexology treatments... I treat people with this issue all the time, and they get complete relief. Time to get your confidence back!!! No need for pads or anything else 👏🏻👍🏻
I luv her shes fab❤❤😊

What happened to the weight loss
99% of women that had a natural birth delivery have too. Anyone know jumping on a trampoline cause that specially in adults what's the point of this interview?

I think the main problem is the fact that she’s got her own gravity - which means the wee is in a gravity free zone and drips out. KFC bucket anyone ?…
