Shortly before the show aired, it was reported that the reality TV star scratched the Lamborghini against a wall as it whizzed around town.
Gemma claims she didn’t notice how close she was to the wall because the “engine was so loud.”
A source told The sun at the time: ‘Gemma drove the car very confidently and went through tight corners, but ended up landing heavily on them without realizing it.
She claimed the engine was so noisy she couldn’t hear anything. The car rental company was not happy and ended up withholding the deposit.’
