Bobby Norris would be "devastated" if Gemma Collins quit 'The Only Way is Essex'.

The 33-year-old reality star declared her intentions to change her life after quitting 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' after just three days last month, but her best friend hopes that doesn't mean she will turn her back on the show which brought her fame.

Bobby Norris has urged Gemma Collins to stay in 'The Only Way Is Essex' because he would be "devastated" if she quit

He told Now magazine: "I really hope [she won't quit] because that's devastating. I can't imagine her being on 'TOWIE'."

However, Bobby, 28, thinks he could see Gemma in a more "serious" role than the ITVBe show.

He said: "I could completely see her going down the serious route. She's like the Ivana Trump of Essex. She's got her hands in every pie and loves to be busy, so I could see her being an entrepreneur or a patron of a charity.

Bobby would also love to star in a spin-off road trip show with Gemma

"She would've had a lot of time to put things into perspective in the jungle. She's very zen-like - she could be a yoga instructor or a life coach. I mean, I'd book in for a sesh."

However, Bobby would also love to star in a spin-off road trip show with Gemma.

He said: "That would be amazing. We're a bit like a double act. But we might have to leave the driving.

"In 'The Only Way is Vegas' the car was older than both of us put together. It was like Del Boy and Rodney going down the Vegas strip."
