READ: Ferne McCann's ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins has been charged
Earlier this week, the 26-year-old learned the shocking truth that her then boyfriend was a suspect in an acid attack over Bank Holiday weekend which left two people blind, she then publically urged Arthur Collins to go to the police and then proceeded to delete every trace of him from her social media accounts.
In a statement from her spokewomen, they said: "Obviously these are highly shocking and Ferne has co-operated with the police in their enquiries.
"She was not with Arthur on Sunday night, was not at Mangle and has no direct knowledge of the events that unfolded.
"As much as anybody she wants to know the truth and urges Arthur to co-operate fully with the police and attend a police station immediately."
Arthur has since been charged in relation to the acid attack and now Ferne has confirmed she's pregnant with her first child.
Her spokesperson told The Mirror: "Ferne is grateful for the sympathetic way news of her pregnancy has been covered and people's support and obviously her first concern is for her child's health.
"Accordingly, she does not wish to discuss the pregnancy further given the early stage it is at and the immense strain that Ferne is currently under.
"Nor does she wish to discuss her ex-boyfriend who she does not recognise from the events of the last week.
"Ferne is in no way seeking sympathy for her situation and is determined to do all she can to have a happy and healthy child and face the challenges of being a single parent with all her energy.
"Her thoughts are with the victims of the horrific attack on Easter Monday."
The Sun previously reported that Ferne McCann told her ex-boyfriend she was pregnant days before the attack.
A pal of Ferne’s spoke out about the shock pregnancy:
"We are all so worried about her. Ferne is absolutely devastated by what has happened.
"She cannot believe someone she loved is capable of doing what Arthur is accused of.
"She is under an incredible amount of stress.
"But Ferne will roll her sleeves up and make the best possible life for her and the child."
Congratulations Ferne!
