Later, Rose slipped into a glamorous square neck lace gown which showed off her amazing weight loss.
At the end of the night, the couple beamed for a lift mirror selfie as Jordan caringly wrapped his blazer over Rose’s shoulders and carried her heels for her.
They wrote: ‘MR & MRS BISHOP’.
The couple announced they had welcomed their first child together a boy, Franklin James Anthony Bishop in March 2024.
Gemma, who is a mum to Ozzy, 12, and Cash, five, from a previous relationship, appeared on the E4 show in 2022, where she was paired with Matt Murray, in an extremely ill-fated union which she revealed led to a breakdown.
After leaving the programme, she was left suffering panic attacks and revealed she was spending £1k a day on drugs, ending up homeless and bankrupt.
Since going into recovery, she jetted to Turkey to undergo gastric sleeve surgery, admitting she has now ‘got my happily ever after.’
Gemma announced she was expecting her third child back in November as she posted both an image of her scan and a sweet video montage showing clips of her boyfriend Jordan.
For the ceremony, Gemma wore a glamorous strapless white wedding dress before flipping into a stunning lace number in the evening

She also revealed her gastric band surgery had not been detrimental to her fertility and pregnancy journey.
In her announcement post at the time, alongside an image of their scan, Gemma penned: ‘Absolutely over the moon to share this beautiful adventure with such a supportive and kind partner who makes me cry happy tears daily…
‘Talking to baby and being so present. I am so blessed to have you and our family’.
Her other post featured a picture – styled to look like a newspaper called The Newborn Times – with various snaps and captions reading: ‘Our dream has come true! We are so thrilled to share our news with you. Our family is growing!…
‘We’re so excited to add to our family. We are expecting a baby in March! We couldn’t be happier!… After months of wondering if we should share the news, we cannot contain ourselves anymore. It’s official, we have a baby on the way…
‘Stay tuned over the next few months on Instagram. I’ll be sharing occasional pregnancy updates… We are excited to have a baby who is going to be 50% of each of use and 100% loved, our perfect little boy.’
In the comments section, one fan queried how she had conceived after her surgery: ‘Congratulations! How will weight loss surgery work in tandem with pregnancy? (Genuine question)’…
She replied: ‘I have to snack a lot and being pregnant has made me hungry. I’m maintaining weight easily and he’s measuring long and healthy, we see a lovely nutritionist every month and they’re happy with my progress within pregnancy.’
Previously, Gemma opened up about her battle with cocaine addiction, when she revealed she was spending £1k a day on drugs and ended up homeless.
She told The Cabin Recovery podcast: ‘The first stages where I was falling apart was probably my comedown from my addiction and I should never have been on that show.’ I should never have been cast by them, certainly not…
‘Psychiatrists could obviously tell that I was a bit of a mess. I lost my home in the middle of all of that. I became homeless through my addiction… 12 years we were in that house.

‘We went to a homeless place, luckily I got back on my feet financially and I’m able to afford a beautiful home for us again.
‘I can’t believe that I put them through that. I’ll never make that mistake. If I spend all my life making it up to them then I’ll be happy to do that.’
Gemma, who is now in recovery, went on to say: ‘There were days where I was sending a dealer a thousand pounds a day, and it was for other people, and for me.
‘You are so desperate to be high and to forget everything that you’ll just keep spending money on that disgusting, dirty drug. It makes you want it more.
‘You’re doing it because, like, your brain is screaming at you that you need it. My body started to get so poorly that the only time it felt alright was when I was using, so what a world away I am now. But it’s easy to forget those times.
‘Your body aches, and physically you feel sick at the thought of doing it, and you don’t wanna do it, and you desperately want to wash those drugs away, but you can’t because it’s got you.’
It comes after Gemma said she was left feeling suicidal after E4 ‘slut shamed’ her and ignored her concerns about being matched with ‘aggressive’ husband Matt.
The salon owner told MailOnline she suffered ‘multiple panic attacks’, exhaustion, and believes she was ‘coerced’ by producers to stay on the show despite expressing on several occasions that she wanted to go home.
Gemma revealed that she felt ‘scared’ and ‘vulnerable’ being married to tattooed barber Matt, 32, who she said ‘lied’ about her ‘masturbating in a restaurant’ to cover up for his own ‘toxic behaviour.’
Gemma accuses E4 producers of portraying her as promiscuous after they aired a series of sexual innuendoes and claims from her husband that he felt ‘uncomfortable’ by her remarks, which she says is untrue.

Gemma said she told her mum that she ‘wanted to die’ after watching the final edit along with E4 viewers and discovering words were ‘cut’ to ‘manipulate’ the storyline
The mum-of-three said the show airing the false storyline that she pleasured herself in a restaurant made her want to ‘die’ and she will be taking her complaint with the broadcaster further.
She explained: ‘I feel that Matt slut shamed me, I feel like the experts did also.
‘He has the same sense of humour as me and made very similar comments on the wedding day, which didn’t make the edit.
‘He asked me ‘do you like it rough? I’m going to choke you in the bedroom.’ It’s been made to look like he was the victim when he just didn’t find me attractive.
‘Matt made that up to deflect what he did in that restaurant, which was getting aggressive, flipping a chair back, and storming away. It obviously did not happen.
‘I defended myself on more than one occasion and said that’s not f***ing true, but it didn’t make the cut because the storyline was too good.
‘I was told it wouldn’t be put into the final edit and I was disgusted when it did. E4 is not allowed to manipulate a storyline like that so I will be taking it further.’
