Gorka Marquez left cheeky comment by fiancee Gemma Atkinson after suffering social media block

Gemma Atkinson left a cheeky comment on her fiance Gorka Marquez's Instagram post after he suffered a social media backlash. The Strictly Come Dancing star was left furious earlier this week after holiday snaps he shared on the social media platform were removed for being 'violent'.

He claimed that his attempt to share some snaps from his recent family getaway were blocked. Gorka, 32, and Gemma ditched Greater Manchester and headed for sunnier climes for the start of the half-term break last week and have recently been taking to social media to share glimpses into their last holiday as a family-of-three.

The loved-up couple announced back in January that Mia, three, was set to become a big sister as they were expecting their second child together. And pregnant Gemma, 38, previously shared how she had 'crazy feelings of emotions' as the sun set on her last holiday before giving birth to her second child.

But back to Gorka and the Spanish dancer re-uploaded the string of images which saw him and Mia playing on the beach and in the sea with a caption which read: "So @instagram took down these pics for apparently being too violent." He then asked: "What you guys think??" before asking for their support by adding: "Double tap if you don’t agree." Gorka also issued the same request by copying the post to his Instagram Story before adding in a hashtag: "Best holiday."

Instagram says it removes content - such as a post, comment or story - from the platform when it finds that it goes against its Community Guidelines. But you can now appeal the removal of photos, or the disabling of your account, directly through the Instagram app.

However, Gorka's former post did appear to return to his main grid with a caption which read: "Last day chasing waves and building sand Castles. Best holiday and already dreaming of next one. Photo spam incoming." But the first and second attempts to share the string of snaps again failed and disappeared.

So on Wednesday night (April 12), Gorka shared a different set of images, still showing him enjoying the golden sand with his little girl, and said: "Holiday memories… Hopefully this one stay up." And Hits Radio host Gemma wasted no time in responding, writing: "Posts are up and down like a brides nighty," alongside a crying laughing emoji.

And fans were also quick to gush over the sweet family memories as they showed Gorka support over his family snaps. @valerie.west22 said: "People who mind don't matter & people who matter don't mind... love the pics of a lovely family unit..." @mrs_vikkiprideaux commented: "Gorgeous photos as were the previous ones too."

@gillrathbone wrote: "Beautiful pics of the three of you before it becomes four, memories that last a lifetime." @helenwoodruffmccann replied: "Lovely photos there is absolutely nothing wrong with them." @kerrylouw79 added: "Gorgeous pictures don't understand why they keep going down!! Precious family memories."
