Ferne McCann has hit back at Billie Faiers' partner Greg Shepherd after he called her out for promoting Charlotte Crosby's TV show instead of The Mummy Diaries

It has been reported that Sam Faiers "turned her back" on Ferne shortly after her pregnancy and the pair fell out. Shortly after, fans questioned why Sam announced her daughter Rosie's name on the same day Ferne's TV show first aired.

Then it was claimed that Sam warned her former co-star to "break things off" with Arthur Collins however Ferne was quick to hit back and slam the claims.

From Essex...

Sam bought a modest three bed home in 2012, becoming a first-time home buyer at just 21. The TOWIE star reportedly paid £400,000 for her first property.

... To Herfordshire

Viewers of The Mummy Diaries will remember things got a little tense between Sam and her family when she revealed she was moving out of Essex. Luckily, Sam's mum and sister, Billie eventually supported her when she found her dream home in Hertfordshire - costing the reality star a cool £2.9 million.

Entrance Hall

It's safe to say that the family have enough space in this HUGE hallway. How adorable is baby Paul hurtling through the grand front door towards big Paul?

Entrance Hall

With an exterior that gives Buckingham Palace a run for it's money, it's only right that the entrance hall is sprawling, right? Swipe to see it in all it's glory at Christmas.

We don't know what's better - Sam's perfect outfit, or the amazing Christmas decor lining the bannister... oh, who are we kidding? The decadent xmas foliage wins every time.

Kitchen

Have you ever seen a more pristine kitchen? Add some crumbs on the surfaces, a pile of washing and an unfolded ironing board and ours could be the same kitchen, right?

Kitchen

Sam and Paul's kitchen is gorgeous - and how cute is this display of framed photos? Again, add some envelopes and papers to the side and this could, COULD be our kitchen.

Orangery

Helloooo orangery! Rule no. 1 of mahooosive houses: no luxurious home is complete without a orangery. How else can you enjoy the evening summer sun from inside?

Orangery

With neighbours including Luisa Zissman, Sam's spacious orangery gives her all the room to host fabulous parties for her celeb pals. She hosted some of her closest friends and their partners for an exclusive Valentine's Day dinner in 2019.

Now that is an impressive Christmas display on the mantelpiece! Just looking at the xmas decor is making us feel warm and cosy. TV on? Check. Cosy socks on? Check. Crackling fire? Check.

Living room

We're obviously obsessed with this room. It's just so spacious (yet cosy at the same time) and the huge windows let so much natural light in. Ah, dreamy.

Toy room

Yes, Paul and Rosie have a toy room. Yes, we are very jealous indeed. Sam and big Paul have even laid down a rug to protect those shiny wooden floors. Although, the white fabric is making us feel a little anxious.

Toy room

Aww! Paul and his toys. Paul has an abundance of toys including a kitchen set, an emirates tin bucket and lots of little animal figurines. But the best toy is yet to come...

Toy room

We're jealous of Paul's toy collection, and yes, that is a miniature hook & ladder fire engine. We'll just be contemplating if it might be acceptable for us to commute into work on one of these?

Even more toys! How tiny does baby Paul look in this snap? The little toddler ditches the cute sheep in favour of a supermarket trolley.

... And more toys. Never mind Mum and Dad's lush kitchen, baby Paul has one of his own, complete with cupboards, saucepans and a sink! Still nicer than ours, tbh.

Upstairs landing

Now upstairs, with a landing this big business woman Sam has plenty of space to model outfits from her's and Paul's clothing label, All Bits London.

Baby Paul's bedroom may not be quite as fun as his sprawling toy room, but wait until you see the safari makeover super-mum Sam gave it...

Baby Paul's bedroom

Baby Paul's bedroom received a safari makeover - we know we would choose a slide out of bed over an average double bed any day.

Baby Rosie's room

And it looks like Paul's little sister, Rosie has an animal theme in her bedroom, too. Who wouldn't want a life-size giraffe!?

Baby Rosie's bedroom

Rosie's room is in the spacious loft conversion of Samantha's plush three story house. It looks like there could be a spare bedroom for any more children, too.

Sam and Paul's bedroom

Sam and Paul's master bedroom has a minimal style throughout - but don't be fooled, this is no understated room. Just wait until you see the couple's walk-in wardrobe...

Walk in wardrobe

Baby Paul plays in a Chanel shopping bag (because, why not?) in Big Paul and Sam's walk-in wardrobe. Daddy Paul's vast trainer collection line the walls.

Garden

How big is their garden?! Sam and Paul's luscious green garden is the perfect spot for summer barbecues - and of course provides lots of room for the children to play.

Garden

Talking of playing, there's an entire miniature village for the children to enjoy. Nelly and Arthur can even join Paul and Rosie in the Wendy house or relax on the kids-size deckchairs.

Garden

And Sam's garden looks just as pretty under a blanket of snow. Despite the chilly weather, Sam proved that little Rosie can nap just about anywhere, as she snoozed in her pram.

Garage

The Faiers' garage and car collection matches the grandeur of their interiors. Now that sure is one squeaky clean car.

On Twitter, she wrote: "Regarding today’s many FALSE stories about me (and sorry to bore you all)…

"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."

Eek!

Despite all the speculation, it appeared that Ferne and Billie remained friends but now it seems that there's trouble in their friendship after Greg Shepherd hit out at Sunday's mum on Twitter.

It all kicked off after Ferne tweeted about Charlotte Crosby's TV show - that airs at the exact same time as The Mummy Diaries - and wrote: "Buzzing for #TheCharlotteShow Second ep on @MTVUK starting in one hour 😱😱🖤🖤💃🏽💃🏽👯👯 @Charlottegshore 💗💙🖤💚 "

However, Greg replied to her tweet and wrote: "👀 Wow!! #SoCalledBesties"

Shortly after, Ferne then tweeted both Billie and Greg to clarify why she tweeted about The Charlotte Show, she wrote: "I tweeted for @Charlottegshore show because she asked me to. Simple. There was no malice, no calculated move. That’s it.

"@BillieFaiers & @Gregshepherd_ you know I love you both & will always support you. This just all seems so silly"

According to theMail Online Billie feels that Ferne is moving "calculated" a source told the publication: "It’s a real shame how Ferne has treated Billie, Billie has been nothing but supportive to Ferne including supporting her show First Time Mum and providing public support.

"It’s clearly a calculated move by Ferne whose show First Time Mum has been recommissioned by ITVBe and returns later this year."

Eek!

This comes shortly after Closer Magazine revealed that Ferne is feeling isolated after she admitted that she had been visiting Sunday's dad in prison. An insider explained: "Ferne can deal with online trolls, but she's struggled to come to terms with how many friends seem to have turned theirs backs on her.

"Many of them are struggling to support her decision and finding it hard to understand why she seems to be ready to let Arthur be a part of Sunday's life."

Eek!
