Ferne McCann teared up as she "mourned" over the loss of her friendship with Billie Faiers as she discussed the voice note scandal in the opening episode of the new series of her reality TV show.
Mum-of-one Ferne confirmed she has reached out to Sam Faiers' sister following the initial leaks last year and broke down in tears as she revealed her reasons for sending the derogatory voice notes several years ago - a time period where she was not on good terms with Sam.
The Only Way Is Essex star, 32, was accused of making a series of "vile" comments about her former pals Sam and Billie in September last year, with one revealing the pregnant star calling Sam a "fat c***".
