Gemma Collins has revealed she doesn’t use contraception with boyfriend James ‘Arg’ Argent as the couple are “letting God decide” when they’re supposed to have children.

The Towie star, confessed that although the couple are not actively trying for children, they are leaving it up to fate.

Collins told the Daily Mail: “We don’t use contraception. As and when God decides for us, it will happen.”

Although, the 36-year-old did add that she wouldn’t like to have children just yet as she is focussed on her career and doesn’t think it would be “fair” to bring a child into the world.

Collins previously left fans in tears after she visited a fertility clinic and was told she could have trouble falling pregnant.

However, she has since told how she is no rush, having been inspired by Jennifer Aniston’s attitude towards motherhood.

She explained: “I read an interview with Jennifer Aniston and she said, ‘do not define me as a woman because I’ve no had children", and I thought, ‘hell yeah sister, you are so right’.

“My life is so hectic right now. It’s been crazy. It's GC world, it wouldn’t be fair to bring my child into the world right now.

“I want to dedicate my life to my child, so now wouldn’t be fair. That child will be my life.”

Collins and Argent have been open about plans to wed in the future, with the reality star admitting she will only say yes if Argent can “produce the goods”, more specifically, a yellow diamond.
