Ferne McCann says she has banned phones and TV from the bedroom to improve sex life

Ferne McCann has banned the TV and phones from the bedroom to improve her sex life with fiancé Lorri Haines.

The former TOWIE star, 32, has insisted that the bedroom be a quiet and calm place for her and her future husband to 'fully connect' with one another at the end of the day, instead of becoming distracted with social media and TV.

Reality TV icon Ferne became engaged to Lorri in July, and since then, she has become determined to keep the sparks lit between the pair.

The couple, who have been dating for seven months, are eager to keep the outside world and it's distractions at bay in their bedroom and they now only have time for one another.

Lifting the lid on her bedroom rules, Ferne told Fabulous magazine: "We don’t have a TV in our bedroom, we’ve put a TV and phone ban on so that when we get into bed we can fully connect and have conversation or sex."

Sharing some insight into her whirlwind romance with Lorri, Ferne added: "'I'm very hopeful. If you become hopeless, that’s giving up. I wouldn’t call myself a hopeless romantic, I'd call myself a hopeful romantic - I've just never given up on what I’ve always wanted. I haven't got a victim mentality."

Ferne's confession comes after she allegedly branded Sam Faiers a 'narcissistic b**ch' and a 'fat c**' in a shocking voice note which was allegedly leaked on Instagram.

The former TOWIE star was accused of launching a 'vile' attack on Billie Shepherd and Sam by their mum Suzie Wells amid alleged 'leaked voice notes.

Mum-of-one Ferne, who has been longtime pals with former co-stars Sam and Billie, appears to hurl insults their way in the alleged leaked voice notes which Suzie, 53, says has completely shocked her family.

The first message was shared on Instagram earlier this week, and in it, Ferne appeared to hit out at Sam, 31, labelling her a “fat c***”.

"Sam Faiers is a fat c***. Her thighs are so big and I looked really skinny today and... yeah," Ferne is allegedly heard saying.

A second voice note has since been released where Ferne called mum-of-three Sam a narcissistic b***h'.

“That’s the sort of girl that she is. She’s just a narcissistic b***h. She honestly won’t care," Ferne can be heard saying.

“It’s an exact copy. It’s just so sh*t on people that have worked hard to just - because she has a big following. It’s just ridiculous. It’s out of order," she added.

It is not known what triggered the voice notes or who Ferne is said to have originally sent them to.

In the wake of the first message being 'leaked', Sam and Billie's shocked mum Suzie issued a statement labelling the voice notes as 'vile' as she said her entire family is shocked and in complete confusion as to why Ferne would say such 'horrible' things about her friends.

Suzie claims the voice notes were allegedly sent by Ferne just months after Sam gave birth to her third baby Edward.

"So after a few days of hurt and upset I can no longer sit back and say nothing," she began.

"This vile voice note has been circulating social media, and now Press articles calling it a 'feud' which it is not. This has come as a complete shock to myself and my family.

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

"Since this 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 to say on the matter."

Sam is believed to have unfollowed and blocked Ferne since hearing the message.

A source told the Mirror: "Naturally Sam is incredibly hurt and upset by these comments, especially from someone she considered to be a good friend, she's at a loss as to why Ferne has decided to speak out about her in such a derogatory way."
