Why was Gemma Collins feuding with Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner?

Speaking on This Morning, just hours after her exit from the show, Gemma said about Jason: "He's there to do his job. I was fine with what he was saying about my skating. I didn't like it when he body-shamed me because that hurt me and I felt embarrassed, that's why I attacked back.
"We all knew I'd never be able to be lifted. I was just out there doing my thing. I would have loved to have been spun around for a count of eight."
Before the show even started, Gemma exclusively revealed to The Sun Online how she had dropped two dress sizes, and hoped to lose even more weight through the competition.

On September 30, 2018, in an exclusive Bizarre TV takeover, show panellists Nadia Sawalha, Sun columnist Jane Moore, Andrea McLean and Chizzy Akudolu hit back at the Towie star’s claims.
Jane said: “I’ve done Loose Women two or three times with Gemma Collins. She was good as gold, we’ve had a lovely time.
“So when I read what she’d said, I had no idea what she was talking about. Because one time she came, she brought her mum. We did a thing about her mum not being very well. We’ve always been lovely to her.”
