Gemma Collins is set to leave Essex behind as she eyes a move to sun-soaked Dubai, following in the footsteps of former TOWIE co-star Kate Ferdinand.
The TV personality, 44, who is currently holidaying in the UAE with fiancé Rami Hawash and stepson Tristan, seven, is believed to be taking time out from her trip to view homes in the area.
Gemma reportedly considers the country a great place to grow her business and ‘perfect’ location to start a family.
Taking to her Instagram amid her trip on Monday she shared a selfie alongside a caption showing her love for Dubai: ‘If you can dream it, you can do it in Dubai, Dubai is a place of positivity a place of making dreams come true.
A source said: ‘She jetted out yesterday and she’s instructed her team to set up some viewings of villas in popular areas like the Dubai Hills and marina.

They told The Sun: ‘She sees Dubai as the hot new place to be right now, somewhere she could really thrive professionally, her health would benefit and it’s an incredible place to bring up children – it’s safer and the schools are outstanding.’
It comes after Kate and husband Rio swapped their life in south-east London for the sun-soaked desert in the United Arab Emirates back in August.
And the Daily Mail revealed the couple found their new home in the exclusive gated community of Al Barari, with the luxury property listed for 32.5million dirhams (£6,550,310) as of April this year.
Daily Mail have contacted Gemma’s reps for comment.
Last year Gemma revealed plans to become a foster carer during an emotional interview on Good Morning Britain after years of fertility struggles and miscarriages.
Despite trying for a baby with fiancé Rami, becoming a foster carer could mean Gemma will finally get her chance to become a maternal figure.
Gemma, whose mother Joan grew up in a foster home, recently rekindled with her long lost family on Who Do You Think You Are?
After finding her family on the show, Gemma said it has helped her feel more ‘complete’ and has made her want to give back to children after the national fostering group warned of a caring crisis.

She has been incredibly open about her fertility journey and has recently transformed her lifestyle in the hope it will help her get pregnant.
Dropping from a size 26 to 20, Gemma recently claimed her weight loss journey has ‘cured’ her after years of struggle.
Last week she looked radiant and glowing in a stunning beachfront snap amid her tri[ as she posed with TOWIE star Harry Derbidge.

The reality star revealed earlier this year that she achieved the results of her weight loss in just three months after using Mounjaro.
And just recently this month, Gemma gave a further update saying she has lost another stone and four pounds and is feeling ‘really good’.
Gemma admitted she has been exercising more but is trying not to put too much pressure on herself.
Speaking to OK! she said: ‘I’ve actually just lost another stone and four pounds, I feel really good.’
‘I love myself as I am – you’ve got to be kind to yourself, it’s just about constantly remembering to make those right choices and be mindful,’ she added.
‘I don’t put pressure on myself. It didn’t take you five minutes to gain it and it’s not going to take you five minutes to lose it.’
