Gemma Collins has revealed she felt completely "blown away" when she visited the spot in Bethlehem where Jesus was born.
The 41-year-old reality star said she's looking forward to her "spiritual journeys in 2023" after touching the silver 14-pointed star that marks the traditional site of the birth of Jesus in a grotto underneath Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity.
"BETHLEHEM I can’t believe I’ve been so unbelievably lucky to have been where baby Jesus was born and touch the spot I am totally blown away and looking forward to my spiritual journeys in 2023," she wrote on Instagram.
"The feeling of this was like nothing I’ve ever felt before I can’t even describe what I felt in that moment I was totally blown away #bethlehem."
Gemma has always been spiritual and in 2020 claimed she's a prophet who was put on Earth to help end the pain and suffering of others.
Comparing herself to Jesus Chris, the GC said on her BBC podcast: "I honestly think I was put on the Earth to be some sort of prophet.
"It is something I will talk about in time. I have endured pain and suffering in my life, things haven't always been easy, I have suffered. And now I can help people in their lives."
Gemma also thinks she has some spiritual connection with nature and that she believes she could be a witch.
She said: "I think I'm a witch because I'm very connected to nature. The difference between white witches and dark witches is that a white witch is very spiritual, into nature and can make magic happen. That is me.
"Dark witches focus on dark magic, black magic and all kinds of horrible things.
"I don't believe white witches have warts on them either, or pointy noses."
Meanwhile, Gemma has shared her plans for a 'private' wedding with her fiancé Rami Hawash.
The duo have been together on and off for a decade and first got engaged in December 2013, but broke it off a few weeks later.
They grew close again during lockdown after Gemma split with James 'Arg' Argent, and shortly afterward rekindled their romance.
In December 2021, Gemma and Rami, 48, announced they were once again engaged - eight years after the pair initially declared they were planning to tie the knot.
And now, the two are thinking about their perfect wedding.
Gemma revealed: "I think it will be a private affair. We will just go off somewhere and do it in private.
"But then, I don’t really know – I’ll see how I feel at the time."
