Alongside a picture of the nappy and a pair of scissors, she wrote: "New skill unlocked. Making a temporary sanitary pad from Tios swim nappy until the shops open. I'm walking like John Wayne." However, Bury-born Gemma was soon left regretting her decision as after heading down to the pool, she realied the nappies weren't water absorbent. In her next story, she sat on a sun lounger and pondered her next move as she penned: "Loads of you have said they weren't absorbent. You were right. FML. Acting casual and waiting for a chance to stand up." Thankfully, the former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale
Actress was able to get to the shops and was seen rushing with four-year-old Mia to be there when they opened before she zoomed into a box of sanitary pads and played the Hallelujah chorus in the background. Happy with the update, Gemma and her daughter then danced around in the toilet mirror with the star adding a "success" GIF above it. Gemma and Mia celebrated the eventual win (Image: Gemma Atkinson Instagram) It comes after Gemma has been seen keeping up with her gym routine and shared an update on Instagram.
