Gemme Atkinson Shares Funny Disagreement with Gorka Marquez: He Was Not Having It
Gemma Atkinson recently opened up about a humorous disagreement she had with her partner, Gorka Marquez, amidst the arrival of their second child, as she gave fans a peek into their family Christmas celebrations.
The couple, who first met and fell in love on the set of Strictly Come Dancing, are proud parents to two children, Mia and Thiago. Gemma and Gorka’s romance blossomed during the 2017 series of the show, where Gemma was paired with Aljaz Skorjanec and Gorka was partnered with Alexandra Burke. Since then, their relationship has flourished, with the couple getting engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2021 and welcoming their second child, Thiago, in July 2023.
Over the weekend, Gemma shared a video on social media showing Thiago sitting beside his dad on the sofa while mimicking Gorka working on his laptop with a toy computer. However, Gemma revealed that there had been some sibling rivalry brewing over a gift from Santa, with Thiago claiming his sister’s present, leading to a few playful fights.
But thanks to some quick intervention from “uncle Tyler” via Amazon Prime, the situation was resolved with a new computer for Mia. Gemma’s humorous take on the family dynamics brought a smile to many of her followers, who appreciated her candid and relatable storytelling.
Gemma Gets Back to Fitness
Despite the holiday festivities, Gemma also made sure to prioritize her health and fitness, sharing a video of her workout routine in her home gym. She emphasized the importance of setting standards rather than resolutions for the new year, focusing on daily movement, nutritious eating, and self-care practices like stretching and regular social interactions.

Gemma, in turn, revealed her love for the movie character Rocky and playfully mentioned her desire to name their son Sylvester, a suggestion that Gorka did not seem too keen on.
Gemma’s lighthearted approach to sharing her family’s moments, fitness routines, and everyday challenges resonates with many, highlighting the importance of humor, flexibility, and self-care in navigating the ups and downs of daily life. As Gemma aptly puts it, “The standards you set determine the life you get,” encouraging others to embrace a balanced and joyful approach to health and well-being.
