Kerry calms Gem with crystals

- BY KELLY JENKINS

GEMMA Collins has asked new pal Kerry Katona to teach her about the healing power of crystals and meditation.

Her bid to be calmer comes after she was branded the diva of Dancing on Ice.

Gemma, 38, was kicked out of rehearsals this week for being “disruptive” and has faced wide criticism since the show began for her outrageous behaviour and demands. She pleaded for help to find “balance and calm” after a backstage meeting with Kerry, 38 – there supporting Brian Mcfadden, her ex-husband and father of her eldest two daughters. A friend of the singer, left, said: “It sounds a bit wacky but Kerry is obsessed with meditating and yoga, which have helped her so much with her stress and anxiety. “She has now been choosing crystals she feels will help Gemma to cope with the show’s pressures and all the ‘diva’ accusation­s.”

Gemma told Kerry she suffers abuse from trolls online and harsh criticisms of her show performanc­e.

The friend said: “Kerry believes that she has so much wisdom to share with Gemma.

“She does guided meditation online with her, teaches her positive affirmatio­ns and sends vibes to her via the crystals.”
