The reality star, 42, shared a picture of Joan, 67, with tubes coming out of her nose to help her breathe.

Gemma told her followers: “Such a scary moment when mum come to hospital. Thank you queens hospital Romford for all your doing.”

She’s since shared an update on her mum’s health and shared a photo of her with her Gemma’s nephew Hayden.

Gemma penned to her legion of fans: “My beautiful Hayden come to see his Nanny.

“Mum should be back home in a few days with us and thank you for all your kind messages 🩷 it sure is scary when your parents get older.

“THANK YOU to everyone at Queens Hospital Romford for all your help.”

In the photo, Gemma’s mum can be seen with a smile on her face and tubes still coming from her nose as he placed a hand on Hayden’s.

Fans were delighted to hear Gemma’s mum was on the mend, with her co-star Chloe Sims posting a string of heart emojis.

Earlier this year Gemma revealed her mum had found a lump between her breast and her armpit but was given the all clear.

Recalling the scary moment, Gemma told The Sun: She said: “It was over the phone. I was in the back of a taxi in London and I was like, ‘Are you all right, mum? Where are you?’ — as we say every day, ten times a day.

“She said, ‘Ah I didn’t want to tell you, but I’ve had a lump in my breast. I was like, ‘What?’, and she said, ‘But it’s fine I’ve got the all-clear’. I was like, ‘Oh, my God. Why didn’t you tell me?’”

Gemma continued: “It’s something that I’ve never spoken about. I was filming Diva Forever at the time so she never said a thing about the diagnosis, which must have been scary for her.

“She found the lump on the side of her right breast but she only told me when it was all over.

“Thank God she got it checked and thank God they caught it in the nick of time.

“She knew that I would have fallen apart in the worst-case scenario so she kept it to herself because she didn’t want to upset me — but she was very scared.”
