Atkinson’s fiance, Gorka Marquez, is a professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, and the two have a child together. Marquez’s job means that he has a busy schedule, and occasionally goes on tour.

She wrote on her Instagram stories, “When Gorks was away working though my mum helped while I went to work, but training wise I just set my alarm for 5:30 to get it done before she woke up."

Gemma starts with a healthy diet. “I'll either have poached eggs on a bagel with avocado and some greens, or I'll have my porridge with almonds, berries and honey," she told Hello. She has “a smoothie mid-morning with whey protein, coconut milk, almonds, frozen spinach, frozen broccoli and frozen cauliflower,” she added. "I make a butternut squash but I put cashew nuts in it which makes it nice and creamy," she continued. "Lunch can be a big salad or chickpeas with pesto or veg or some Mexican rice. I've always loved Mexican food. I think it's been ten years since I ate any red meat but I used to love fish tacos. " And for dinner? "Sometimes I'll just have a shake before bed or sometimes Gorka will make a Spanish omelette which is great." Gemma also carries around nuts to snack on. "It's nutrition but it's fast. I always have them out with me in a bumbag when I'm walking - it's a lot better than snacking on your crisps or biscuits," she told Hello.

Gemma makes sure to get enough sleep. 'I get up at 4.30am to present Manchester’s Key 103 Breakfast Show. I swear by getting six hours’ sleep,” she told Women’s Health.

Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

4. “Heavy” Weight Training

Gemma’s approach to exercise “does involve a lot of heavy weight training. I’ve always gone to the gym – but this taught me to focus on the quality of my workouts, not the quantity,” she told Women’s Health.

5. Weekend Rest and Cheat Mea4ls

“The weekend is my time to rest. I don’t train – I’ll go for long dog walks instead. If I fancy it, I’ll have pizza, pasta or a glass of wine. I aim for 80% what my body needs, and 20% what it wants,” Gemma told Women’s Health.

Humes makes sure to take care of her hair. She shared some of her secrets to Grazia. Humes says that she keeps her haircare routine simple. “I try not to over complicate it,” she says. “I use a product called Twisted Sista 30 Second Curl Spray, £5.89, that helps to define my curls. You mist it onto super wet hair and scrunch it in. After that, I'll use a curl cream, which I'm constantly switching up, or a leave-in conditioner - both are a great way to keep my curls healthy.”

2. She Stays Moisturized

Humes shared some of her favorite skincare products and tips to WhoWhatWear. She says that staying moisturized is important to her. “I’d put some moisturiser on. I use the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base (£45), and I just think it’s the best moisturiser for my skin. I use the eye cream as well. It’s the best thing to go on underneath makeup because I can’t bear it when moisturiser starts rolling off when you put stuff on top. This one just sits on the skin really well, and it can hold makeup, which is important.”

3. She Loves Retinol

One of Humes’ favorite skincare products is retinol. She tells WhoWhatWear, “The other bit of advice is that I always put my eye cream on before anything else. I'll use retinol maybe once a week, but because the eye area is so delicate, it means you have a kind of barrier to protect that area before using any actives. I'm really into using different ingredients. You just have to be careful with those harsher things [like retinol], but they work so well. They're nothing to be scared of. You hear hyaluronic acid and think, Acid on my face? But it’s so good for hydration. I adore skincare.”

4. She Loves Pilates

In her WhoWhatWear interview, Humes opened up about her fitness routine, and her favorite exercises. “Pilates is my favourite form of exercise, and I really needed that in lockdown,” she says. “I do feel good after it. As much as I might dread getting up to do it in the morning, I’ve never ever regretted doing an exercise in my life. You just have to think of afterward.”

5. She Embraces Herself

In her WhoWhatWear interview, Humes was asked about what advice she would give others. “You are you for a reason,” she answered. “Embrace your beauty because you are beautiful, and don’t worry about social media because none of it’s real. You know, someone has taken a million selfies to get to the right one. They’ve chosen a good angle, the one they look the best in. We all do it. So just don’t compare yourself to that. You live once, so just enjoy it.”
