The star, who was clutching a box of cake, looked positively radiant in her dress which she teamed with a powder pink corduroy puffer jacket and a pair of trusty sunglasses.

The mum-to-be wore her blonde locks in a playful bun and went bare-faced for her summer stroll.

Sharing an update with her followers, Gemma noted in her caption: "Still standing, still eating cake. Little man still lovely and comfy #40weeks."

The star's fans and friends were quick to heap praise on the former Strictly contestant, with one writing: "Still high up too… aww it's so cute… No mama papa Mia I'm not coming out yet!!" while a second chimed in: "Waiting in anticipation. You're glowing."

A third remarked: "The only fella that would ever keep you waiting! Looking fabulous. Exciting times ahead!" and a fourth sweetly added: "Awww not long now!!! You look fab."

At the time, Gemma gushed: "Impossible to hide my belly any longer. I've officially 'popped.' Our baby boy will be joining our family later this year. We feel so incredibly blessed and grateful to be on this journey again. Mia is absolutely thrilled! Although we may need to do some negotiating on names, as so far she's adamant he's going to be called Barbie."

Since announcing her news, Gemma has been incredibly honest about her pregnancy journey, highlighting both the inevitable highs and lows.

Last week, the former Hollyoaks actress posted a sped-up video of herself stretching at home in an attempt to prompt contractions. Alongside the clip, she penned: "Not sure how much more space I can make for you little man [blue heart emoji].

"Stretching has still been my go-to for feeling SO much better, especially at this stage. He’s obviously very comfy which is good to know. I'm very much still in the mindset of he'll arrive when he's ready as opposed to a specific date. However, it would be nice if he was ready quite soon so he could spend a little longer with his Papa before rehearsals start (and I could also that way potentially get at least a few hours' sleep)."
