Gemma Collins is planning to build gem-encrusted pink palace with helipad

First, came Ed Sheeran’s sprawling estate, dubbed Sheeranville. Now… there’s Gemma Collinstown.

The former TOWIE star is planning a two-year renovation project to turn her new home into a sparkly pink palace with its own helipad.

She also fancies a swimming pool decorated with a mosaic of her own face staring up from the bottom.

Gemma will create the estate by building a second property on her new land, while her parents buy the house next door.

She hasn’t completed on her country pile yet.

But Gemma is already stocking up on interiors, including a huge glittery unicorn, a grand piano she’s having “smothered in Swarovski crystals” that will be visible from “outta space” and a “big, pink ostrich-feather lamp”.

So just the essentials… “We’ve got a disco ball coming out of the horse’s mouth,” she says, proudly, of her kitchen centrepiece.

There will also be stables to house “cows, chickens, sheep, goats, zebras and donkeys”, once she gets some cats.

“I’ve got my parents next door,” she said on the Gemma Collins podcast.

“So if I’m away they can feed my cats.” And her zebras.
