Something which is part of the GF itself cannot have a GF. Gravity is not a force at all - it's an effect - and so does not have energy.

See reply above for my more detailed explanation.

An effect needs a cause and a cause needs force. If a effect does not have energy then the energy consumed in the cause is destroyed that violates the law of conservation of energy.
