Gemma continued in a text post: "I think I'm so emotional because of how Mia was born… there was a brief moment in labour that I didn't think she'd be here at all never mind have the most wonderful year. That and my period must be due because I never cry. Right I'm off to eat three white chocolate Magnums."
On Saturday morning Gemma dedicated a touching post to Mia, telling her daughter that she is her "everything".
Alongside a series of sweet photos of Mia, Gemma wrote: "Feliz cumpleaños Mia! Your very first Birthday!!!! Thank you for choosing me to be your mum. You’re my everything. Making us so proud and keeping us laughing daily (even on little sleep) Me and papa love you Enjoy your special day!"
