Gemma Collins claims her ‘witch’ mother met an alien on the train and ‘communicated telepathically’ with it

We never thought “Gemma Collins” and “aliens” would be included in the same sentence but here we are...

The Only Way Is Essex star has claimed that her mother – who she describes as a “witch” – encountered an alien on a train and even “communicated telepathically” with it.

Yes, you read that all correctly.

During an episode on her BBC Sounds podcast earlier this month, the GC recalled her mum Joan’s incredible apparent experience with an extraterrestrial, who was described by Joan as a “man” with “dead eyes.”

“I believe in aliens – my mum has actually met one on the train,” Collins began and described how her mum got more than she bargained for on her journey.

She told how, immediately, Joan knew something was “weird” about the man sitting near her.

“She said, ‘I was sitting on the train and I saw this guy - and I thought something’s weird about him’,” Collins said.

“Her sixth sense, being a witch, it didn’t feel right, so my mum started to feel really uncomfortable.”

After realising what she was apparently in the presence of, Collins’ mum decided to test her telepathy skills with the creature.

Collins explained: “The eyes were dead. So, literally, she said – in her head – ‘rustle your newspaper up and down, go up and down with your newspaper three times if you’re an alien’.”

“He done it,” she added. “My mum reckons this guy was reading her mind. The alien literally formed as a human. But she’s never gotten over that story.”

Despite her mum’s eerie encounter, it hasn’t put Collins off the extraterrestrial – infact, she’s stated how she wouldn’t mind them popping around hers for Christmas.

“Aliens are not to be scared of,” she said, “And when I was younger I always used to draw aliens. How crazy is that?”

“I do believe they are real. I’d love to meet them. If there are any aliens looking for somewhere to come for Christmas, come to me.”

With December 25 just around the corner, the GC would need a Christmas miracle for the aliens to have heard and even accept her festive invitation – but we’re interested to see what happens anyway.
