Ferne McCann opens up about taking baby Sunday to see Arthur Collins in prison

**Ferne Mcann wants her daughter to make up her own mind about her father Arthur Collins when she's older. **

Ferne has opened up about her decision to take her daughter Sunday to see her father Arthur Collins while he is in prison.

“It is a huge thing to have to make decisions you are forced into," Ferne told The Sun.

"I have to think of Sunday and what is best for her. It hasn’t been an easy decision and some people may think I’m wrong. But the last thing I want to do is hide what is going on."

Ferne is reportedly continuing to take Sunday to visit Arthur, after his legal team allegedly sent her a letter demanding 'his right to see his daughter'.

The former Towie star has apparently sought legal advice to fight Arthur's demands.

“I’m with Sunday every day of her life and she is my number one priority. I am doing this so she can make her own choice when she’s older, rather than me forcing it on her now.

“If Arthur has to see Sunday, then I want absolute control of the situation. If she is going into a prison I want to be with her and know she’s OK. I’m not going to just drop her off and hope for the best."

This comes shortly after Ferne denied being with Arthur before speaking out about her alleged feud with Sam Faiers. On Twitter, she wrote: "For the record (again) I am not in a relationship with Arthur. I do not know how much clearer I could be about that!!

"Sam and I never fell out about Arthur! This is false."

She's also reportedly moved on with a secret older man. According to The Sun, the 27-year-old mum has been dating an older man for almost two months and it seems that things are serious between the pair. An insider told the publication: "He's quite a bit older than her and she seems the happiest she's been in a long time."
