Gemma Collins is accused by fans of Photoshopping her Instagram post

She’s been on a mission to lose weight this year and has already shed a staggering three stone.

And Gemma Collins, 38, showed off her hard work on Thursday – but some fans were left questioning whether the star had posted an edited image.

Replying to the GC’s Instagram, some claimed the picture had been Photoshopped with other saying the floor and skirting boards were ‘wonky’.

Gemma is seen posing with one hand behind her head while wearing a snake-print co-ord lounge suit in the glam snap.

The reality TV star’s blonde locks are down and she has pretty pearl clips in her tresses, as well as a full face of makeup including a touch of pink eye-shadow. 

Dozens of people responded to the post, with many praising Gemma for her weight loss, but with others calling her out for possibly editing her figure.

‘Skirting board is wonky behind legs and shadow doesn’t look right, am I the only one seeing this?’

While someone else commented: ‘Got a bit of a wobbly floor going on there. Please don’t edit your photos. You have lost loads of weight. Do not need to make out you have lost more.’

Others said it was ‘obvious Gemma is deceiving her fans by airbrushing her pictures’ and another said ‘weight loss of filter’. 

However stylish Lucas Armitage, who said he took the picture and did the edit, said that he had not changed Gemma’s shape in the picture. 

Gemma’s manager has been contacted for comment by MailOnline.

The TV personality recently revealed that she hasn’t stopped eating since she reportedly called 999 over fears her on-off boyfriend James Argent had overdosed.

The star admitted she was feeling stressed but vowed to bounce back and return to the gym.

Gemma told The Sun: ‘I ain’t stopped eating. I’ve had a lot of stress and I’ve not been to the gym in two weeks, I’ve been unwell all weekend with a chest infection. 

‘When I come back, I will get back on it, I always come out on top. ‘My life always goes a bit t*ts-up but I carry on, I’ve got lots of projects on the table, so it’s exciting.’ 

Back in April Gemma was accused of Photoshopping images to market her clothing range.

It was revealed that she could be facing legal action after her head was placed on a model’s digitally-enlarged body, in order to promote her clothing collection and put online, leaving model Katie Green, 30, ‘furious’.

A day later, The Sun report a second model, Kate Louise Smith, 37, had come forward after reportedly being used for the same purpose, as she said: ‘Rather than being mortified, I’m just insulted. It’s very intrusive and it’s an odd thing to do.’

According to the Daily Star, model Katie was furious to discover the poorly Photoshopped images and has sought legal advice.

Yet a spokesperson for Gemma told MailOnline at the time: ‘The images were used in good faith by Gemma. An external firm assured her that they owned the copyright and had commissioned the shoots.’
