Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez from Strictly Come Dancing disagreed about the couple’s bedroom’s temperature because Gemma’s biohacking raised the couple’s temperature.
Strictly Come Dancing couple Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez disagreed about one thing most couples can relate to – and it sparked a separate rooms arrangement.
Gemma and Gorka, who met on Strictly, had a falling out around the temperature in their bedroom, with the 41-year-old actress’s biohacks seemingly raising the heat in the room.
According to Gorka, the ideal temperature for their bedroom is between 18 and 21C. But due to Gemma’s biohacks, which include a so-called sauna blanket, the mercury rises to 26C, making it difficult for the Spanish dancer to sleep.
On the podcast episode of Lost in Translation, Gorka stated, “I don’t like to sleep in a hot room, on a hot bed, or when it’s very hot.
She grabs the red blanket, places it on top of the bed, and does what she does. I go to bed already, wearing my glasses, and using a low intensity laptop, so because she doesn’t like it, I turned it down.
“But she goes ahead and places the mat on top of the bed, and she lies there full-power, giving me various intensities, which makes it quite bright red.
For half an hour, she does it both ways. Up and down, it’s like a toast. The bed gets heated up by that red light, and I get the heat that comes from that.
Gemma responded by saying that to combat the rising temperature, Gemma had opened the patio door.
The actress gave a solution and acknowledged the potential disruption to her partner’s sleep.
She responded, “I actually laughed at it. He told me something last night. I had no clothes on, and I had an eye mask on, my blue light blockers, and my red light helmet on. I was unclothed.
You appear to be a corpse on a slab, Gemma, and he just went to me. Just lying there, I was. After all those bio hacks, I had a great night’s sleep.
What will I do next, then, OK. If you have the feeling, I’ll go into the next room, do my biohacks in the spare room, and then go back to sleep.
In the end, the couple’s agreement to end.
Gemma and Gorka met when she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017, though they were not paired with each other.
The former Hollyoaks star reached the final with Aljaz Skorjanec, as did Gorka with singer Alexandra Burke. They both lost out to actor Joe McFadden and Katya Jones.
The couple has since had two children, the youngest of whom is two-year-old Thiago and the youngest, Mia, six.
