Gemma Collins lashed out at a fellow passenger on board an Aegean airlines flight from Athens to Heathrow because she was convinced the traveller in front of her was reclining her seat - which stopped her from being able to nod off.
The TOWIE star, 38, was sat in her seat with her tray down and wanted to rest her head on the back of the chair in front, but quickly became irate when she was unable to get comfortable and confronted the voyager.
A fellow passenger, who watched the altercation in the air, exclusively revealed to MailOnline that Gemma shouted at the lady: 'What the f*ck are you doing, babe?'
When approached for comment, a spokesman for Gemma told MailOnline: 'All Gemma did was like many passengers do in a busy air plane is ask for someone to be considerate to her. It was a gentle request and was in no way a row.'
According to the onlooker, the apologetic traveller, who the source told 'didn't speak fantastic English' responded: 'My chair is not reclined.'
Unimpressed with the reply, Gemma then told the woman: 'Stop f*cking moving, stop f*cking moving, just leave it, it's fine.'
After the cross words, in footage obtained exclusively by MailOnline, Gemma carries on by instructing: 'But leave it like that, it is hitting my head and it hurts.'
The puzzled passenger, tries to defend herself as she adds: 'I am not trying…'
Before the Essex star cuts her off by saying: 'Alright it’s fine' before closing her eyes.
In the clip Gemma, who was travelling solo, looks visibly tired as she got on the flight make-up free following a club appearance at Jackie O' beach club in Mykonos the night before.
The TV personality, who now has her own solo reality show Gemma Collins: Diva Forever, stepped on the plane in off-the-shoulder chiffon maxi-dress printed with a purple and turquoise pattern.
Gemma is currently staring in her own fly-on-the wall series on ITVBe.
On the latest episode, Gemma's on-off relationship with James Argent left the star feeling broken, dejected and lost.
Explaining their explosive split after Gemma was prepared to put a £150k deposit down for a house in Arg's name, she told Real Housewives Of Cheshire's Dawn Ward: 'He said to me I'm a fat joke and a car crash.
'He says you're only famous because you're a fat joke. Funnily enough I watched an old episode of TOWIE the other day and I wasn't even big then. He was putting me down then and he is still putting me down now.'
'He only seems to want to be around me when it benefits him.
'The other day I was at a shoot and he text me and said: 'It's one o clock, I told you get me Nando's. Where's my f**king Nando's?'
Ever the supportive friend, a clearly horrified Dawn, 46, replied: 'You're a big celeb in the U.K. You're making a lot of money. He probably feels intimidated by your success and feels the need to put you down.
'You've got a lot going for you Gem. You're beautiful.'
