Gemma did not reveal to fans what caused the hospital dash.
Earlier this year Gemma revealed her mum had found a lump between her breast and her armpit but was given the all clear.
Recalling the scary moment, Gemma told The Sun: She said: “It was over the phone. I was in the back of a taxi in London and I was like, ‘Are you all right, mum? Where are you?’ — as we say every day, ten times a day.
“She said, ‘Ah I didn’t want to tell you, but I’ve had a lump in my breast. I was like, ‘What?’, and she said, ‘But it’s fine I’ve got the all-clear’. I was like, ‘Oh, my God. Why didn’t you tell me?'”

Gemma continued: “It’s something that I’ve never spoken about. I was filming Diva Forever at the time so she never said a thing about the diagnosis, which must have been scary for her.
“She found the lump on the side of her right breast but she only told me when it was all over.
“Thank God she got it checked and thank God they caught it in the nick of time.
“She knew that I would have fallen apart in the worst-case scenario so she kept it to herself because she didn’t want to upset me — but she was very scared.”
Gemma added: “She basically caught it and they removed it straight away. They were fantastic — again big up the NHS.
“It’s a different story now and she got the all-clear.”
Joan, who attends a screening every year, was diagnosed in 2016 with ductal carcinoma in situ, in which the cells in the lining of the breast tissue become cancerous.
However, the cancerous cells are contained inside the milk ducts and have not yet spread into the surrounding breast tissue.
