The ITV character has been grappling with significant challenges, including the demands of caring for her quadruplets Bryn, Llio, Cary, and Aled, who is hearing-impaired.

Alongside her partner Chesney Brown, played by Sam Aston, Gemma also cares for Chesney's son Joseph from a previous relationship, though their familial harmony has faced difficulties.

Gemma's struggles with exhaustion and ongoing mental health trouibles, for which she has been prescribed antidepressants, appear to come to a head in an upcoming episode. In a moment of desperation, she initially tells her disappointed daughter that the shoes are out of their financial reach, only to impulsively return to the store and take them.

However, her impulsive act leads to a disastrous turn of events when she attempts to flee but is apprehended by a security guard.
