Exclusive: MissGAtkinson discusses the challenges of bringing up baby Mia, body positivity and lockdown life
July 19, 2020 - 06:23 BST Sharnaz Shahid Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez may have demanding careers, with one working in radio and the other as a professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, however, their first and foremost priority is being doting parents to baby Mia.In an exclusive interview with HELLO!, the 35-year-old actress-turned-radio presenter has stressed the importance of keeping her daughter - who celebrated her first birthday on 4 July - grounded in this age of social media.
And while Gorka was unable to go on tour due to strict social distancing rules, it hasn't all been bad news for their family. Gemma admits lockdown life has enabled the professional dancer to spend some quality time with his loved ones as well as working out together."Obviously Gorka is usually away on tour, it's normally just me and Mia. I'll be up when she's up in the morning, trying to squeeze my training in," she revealed.
"We need a routine to stay challenged - even if you are not working, don't treat every day as Saturday and Sunday," she added."Get showered, dressed and do exercise for 20 minutes and you will feel better." "Some people can't get access to a gym, some people can't afford the gym," she shared."So I used to do workouts at home as well. I just tried to make it more approachable for everybody really." The mum-of-one added:"TV.FIT loved what I represented and they wanted to put a programme of mine on the condition that it was about being healthy and stronger, not weight loss or fitting into a certain size pair of jeans. It needs to be about getting stronger.
