Ferne McCann reportedly took a swipe at Billie Faiers for giving her son the same name as her jailed ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins in a new leaked voice note.
The former TOWIE star, 32, hit the headlines this week after she was accused of calling Billie's sister Sam a 'fat c***' and a 'narcissistic b***h' in voice notes sent to a friend, just weeks after Sam, 31, had given birth to her third child, Edward.
The first message was shared on an anonymous Instagram account earlier this week and a second one was shared yesterday out of a reported 39.
Now, another short voice note has been released, which seems to be Ferne taking a swipe at pal Billie for naming her son Arthur.
Arthur is the name of Ferne's ex Arthur Collins and father of her child, Sunday, who was jailed for an acid attack.
In the voice note, Ferne allegedly says: "It feels so weird saying 'Arthur', I can't believe, it's like me having a little boy and calling him Greg, anyway, whatever."
Greg is the name of Billie's husband, with who she shares children Nelly, eight, and Arthur, five.
The Instagram user alleged in the caption: "fernutrition invited herself and her fiancé on holiday last month with billie and greg cant stand her kids name let alone being around him. 3/39 36 to go more to be revealed on sunday."
Sam, Billie or Ferne have yet to comment publicly on the recordings.
After the voice note circulated online earlier this week, many jumped to Ferne's defence and questioned whether the notes were they seemed.
Other fans of Ferne urged trolls to be kind, after they posted a series of snake emojis in the comments section of the TV star's Instagram.
One person said: “If you have nothing nice to say don’t say anything."
Another wrote: “You do realise everyone coming on here and trolling Ferne is just the exact same. You’re all the same for coming on here and giving her s**t too.”
“She could be talking about anyone in showbiz,” one doubtful user said.
One person pointed out it could be 'someone with a vendetta' as there's no context with the voice notes.
A Twitter user added: "That Ferne McCann voice note about Sam Faiers sounds like she's reading something, or talking about a hypothetical scenario? Context is everything!"
Another person said: "Don’t like the way they are only posting bits of the conversations, very suspicious."
Following the release of the first voice note which fat-shamed Sam, Billie and Sam's mother took to social media to defend her daughter.
Suzie Wells, 53, said the nasty message was a "complete shock" to the family, as Ferne had been a "very close friend to us all".
The Mirror has approached Billie and Ferne for comment.
