Gemma Collins has reportedly pulled out of the Dancing On Ice final after judge Jason Gardiner’s latest comments about her.
During an appearance on Tuesday’s This Morning, Jason took another swipe at his skating nemesis as he appeared to liken Gemma to a fridge – a comment he later insisted was a “light-hearted joke”.
Gemma then hit back on Instagram and accused the acid-tongued TV personality of “bullying” her with his “upsetting and hurtful” comments.

Now, The Sun has reported that Gemma has pulled out of Sunday night’s final.
A source told the publication: “Gemma is devastated, there’s only so much she can take and Jason has bullied her for months – she’s laughed it off and tried to rise above it but enough is enough – Dancing On Ice bosses should not be allowing it to carry on.
“Everyone was excited to see her return – she had cancelled everything to throw herself into rehearsals to give her fans one last show but Jason has destroyed all of that. He’s a bully.”
Ent Daily has contacted reps for Gemma and Dancing On Ice for comment.
It comes after Jason made another dig at former TOWIE star Gemma on This Morning.
Speaking about all the eliminated contestants coming back for the final, host Phillip Schofield told Jason: “Gemma’s back. The GC.”
Jason replied: “Who? Oh, I thought that was a refrigerator.”
Minutes later he claimed the digs were “a light-hearted joke” as upset fans took him to task on his comments, accusing him of ‘fat-shaming’.
He tweeted: “I was not calling Gemma a refrigerator it was meant as a light hearted joke when Phillip said the “GC” which sounds like a white goods brand. What has happened to having a SoH?”
