Gemma Atkinson 'spoilt' as childhood crush tells her she 'looks 22' over personal update

Gemma Atkinson received the ultimate compliment from her childhood crush after he messaged her to say she 'looks 22'.

The 36-year-old actress, who is dating Strictly Come Dancing professional Gorka Marquez, was left blushing after Brad Kavanagh sent her a private message to gush about how incredible she looked.

Gemma has been sharing regular updates on Instagram since giving birth to their daughter Mia in July 2019, and the former Hollyoaks star often takes to the platform to share candid selfies and snaps of her workouts.

Taking to her Instagram Story on Saturday, Gemma revealed that Brad had messaged her after seeing one of her latest videos, writing to her: "You look 22," with a heart-eye emoji.

Gemma, who recently shared a naked sauna snap, couldn't resist sharing the compliment with her 1.7 million followers and captioned the screengrab: "Spoilt," followed by a laughing emoji.

Mum-of-one Gemma regularly shares her fitness tips and workout routines with her fans, but she also likes to share her favourite skincare secrets too.

Earlier this year, the former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! contestant took to Instagram to share her favourite high street cleanser, which costs just £8.

Speaking about the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, she said: "I've used this cleanser for five years. I use it morning and night and never get spots, it's amazing!"
