Ferne McCann has confirmed that she is still dating Lorri Haines after a video of him made headlines last week.
The former TOWIE star, 31, made it clear that she has not split from Lorri, 30, by uploading a snap of them both from her recent trip to the Maldives with him.
In the capture, uploaded by Ferne to her Instagram Stories, the pair pose on bicycles in what appears to be the grounds of a lavish beach resort.
Ferne - who is said to be splitting her time between England and Dubai where her beau lives - can be seen in a blue velvet dress with a plunging neckline while Lorri flashes a smile clad in khaki swimshorts.
Reality star Ferne's post seems to be her way of telling fans that she is sticking with Lori despite reports claiming she was "devastated" when footage emerged of her beau holding 'suspicious white powder' while partying with pals in a Dubai apartment.
Lorri denied taking drugs and told The Sun, who obtained the footage, that he was 'joking around'.
In the video, Haines was seen wearing a pair of white shorts as he holds two packets of white powder while music plays in the background.
He appears to take a scoop of the powder and bring it to his nose, but a man off-camera is heard telling him: "No, no ket. Put the ket down."
After the story broke, a source told that mother-of-one Ferne was not happy about the video.
“Ferne was understandably devastated and really shook by the news,” a source told OK! Magazine.
“Even though Lorri says it’s just a joke, she has a zero tolerance for those types of jokes.”

The close friend of the businessman went on to add that Lorri is devastated over the situation.
“He’s beyond gutted about the situation. He’s a decent, hard-working guy who devotes himself to his work and family," they revealed.
In February, Essex native Ferne - who has not been lucky in love throughout the years - took to Instagram to share her adoration for Lorri.
"Forever. Don’t ever be afraid to show your vulnerability. Don’t ever be afraid to share your past. Don’t ever be afraid to be yourself, she wrote.
Continuing to gush about her man, Ferne added: "In my opinion, everything you’ve ever been afraid to share is actually the key to your happiness and future. Never give up on love.
