has reached out to Gemma Collins's representatives, who declined to comment, and has also reached out to ITV.Gardiner also alleged that he was questioned if he "wasn't nasty enough" in his critiques, and told he hadn't been hired to be nice, adding: "So I knew my place, I was put in my place.""There was no consideration for my mental health, my well-being, what I was going through," he recalled.
