Gorka Marquez has cheekily shared how he 'likes his coffee in a morning' as fiancée Gemma Atkinson posed up a storm in a new photoshoot. The Strictly Come Dancing star was the first to show his support for his future wife's latest venture with Manchester fashion brand, In The Style.
Earlier this week Gemma headed to model her new autumn collection for a set of promotional shots after having to postpone due to being unwell. The Hits Radio first was due to attend her photoshoot last week but after having her wisdom tooth removed and later discovering she had a 'dry socket' - where a blood clot fails to develop in the tooth socket - leaving her in agony, she had to put herself first.
But on Monday (September 12), Gemma was back in action and headed for a day modelling her latest range for the online retailer. The former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale star took to her Instagram Stories as she took them behind the scenes of her photoshoot, chatting about the items in her latest range - including matching tracksuits, a puffer jacket and classic day dresses in more autumnal colours.
After wrapping up the shoot and heading home, Gemma was able to share some photos from the day that gave a sneak peek at the collection. "Autumn is on way and my next collection with @inthestyle is the perfect capsule collection to take you into the cooler months," she penned.
The 37-year-old then went on: "Whether it’s the nursery/school drop off, coffee run or dog walk, we’ve got you covered! I’m bringing back some of your previous favourite pieces in more autumnal tones, as well as some new cargo pants and tracksuits that I know you’re going to love! (who doesn’t love a cosy tracksuit to throw on). Here’s just a sneak peak at a few of the pieces.. Hope you like it!"
Gorka, 32, was among the firs to comment, sharing a string of love heart eye emojis in the comments section. And Gemma's loyal followers were also flooding her with compliments. @rainbowsparkle2102 said: "Omg I want it ALL! Gorgeous!" @_beksxx wrote: "I wish I was as pretty as you! You look stunning in every outfit!"
@swarren1982 commented: "You look stunning gemma." @ admirjakupovic92 replied: "Wow! You look absolutely incredible!!" @ ushyis9 typed: " Beautiful as always." @ rachc1850 added: " @glouiseatkinson you look flipping amazing."
On Tuesday, Gemma returned to Instagram with some different images showing off more of her collection. One photo saw her posing in a plush living room, donning a white tee that was tucked in to a pair of wide-legged blue trousers with a thick white stripe down the side.
She paired the look with a pair of crisp white trainers while her blonde locks were styled straight. The mum-of-one posed for the snap with one hand on her hip while she gripped on to a Starbucks cup in the other. And Gorka was once again dazzled by Gemma. The Spanish dancer reshared the post to his own Instagram Story and typed: "How I like my coffees in the morning," with a string of love heart eye emojis and hearts.
Earlier this month, Gemma posted a series of snaps of her beau, who she met when she took part in Strictly 2017, before gushing over him with a sweet birthday message. One photo showed Gorka posing in just a pair of denim blue jeans, showing off his ripped torso and huge back and arm tattoos.
Others showed Gorka with his beloved daughter as a baby as well as on a recent holiday as they walked along side by side from the beach. And Gemma also included some loved-up selfies of the pair, who got engaged last year when Gorka dropped to one knee with a sparkling ring on Valentine's Day.
"Happiest of Birthdays to you! @gorka_marquez Thank you for all you do for us," Gemma penned but she did point out that she was having to miss out on something rather crucial to birthday celebrations. "The first Birthday you’re actually home and I can’t even eat any cake with this wisdom tooth," she wrote.
The Bury-born star ended her post: "I hope you have the best day. We love you so much." Gorka was quick to respond to the post, simply writing: "I love you both," as the messages for the birthday boy came flooding in. Gorka's birthday came at the right time as he was given a break from Strictly.
The dancer had been away preparing for the upcoming series, which will now air next week after being postponed from September 17 following the Queen's death. While away, Gorka took part in an Instagram Q&A where he was asked: "What's your favourite thing about Gemma," to which he shared a beautiful snap his took over her shoulder as she smiled and played with daughter Mia on the beach during their recent trip abroad.
"There [are] many thing I adore [about] her but one of them is how selfless she is," Gorka, 31, penned. "And how much she cares for others around her. Anything she does is thinking of her loved ones."
