Ferne McCann accused of ‘vile’ attack on Sam Faiers as voice notes are ‘leaked’

Billie Shepherd and Sam Faiers' mum Suzie Wells has accused Ferne McCann of launching a "vile" attack on her daughters after leaked voice notes appeared online.

Sam and Ferne are said to have had a strained relationship in recent years after both quitting The Only Way Is Essex, and now Sam's mum Suzie has claimed to have been left "hurt and upset" for "a few days" after her discovery.

Posting on Instagram, Suzie told fans she could "no longer sit back and say nothing".

The star told fans that a clip has been shared on social media, adding: "This has come as a complete shock to myself and my family.

"Ferne has always been a very close family member to all of us over the past 20 years. It appears the voice note was sent just weeks after Samantha gave birth back in May."

Suzie went on: "Since the voice note has surfaced more have been sent – very upsetting nasty things. We are as shocked as you are! Nobody should ever speak about their friends like this ever! My girls are my absolute everything and I'll do anything to protect them."

"I don't have anything else to say on the matter," the mum-of-two concluded.

OK! have contacted Sam Faiers and Ferne McCann's representatives for comment.

Reports of Sam and Ferne's alleged fallout first began in 2017 shortly after news of Ferne's pregnancy broke.

Sam later addressed their relationship, telling The Sun: "Look to be honest, over the last couple of years, Ferne and I hadn’t seen eye to eye on a number of things. Sometimes as friends you do just drift apart.

“We were both at my sister’s bridal shower — Ferne was there. It was fine. It was nice. We were just catching up on the babies really. So we are fine.”

Ferne was later said to have been dropped as bridesmaid from Billie's nuptials to now-husband Greg Shepherd.

It was later suggested that Sam didn't approve of Ferne's relationship with ex Arthur Collins which sparked the pair to drift, but Ferne insisted that this wasn't the case.

Ferne remains close with Sam's sister, Billie Shepherd, and the due jetted off for a luxury holiday with their partners and kids this summer.

Last December, the pals enjoyed another 5-star escape when they spent New Year's Eve in the Maldives.
