Ferne McCann has taken to Twitter to respond to criticism from Billie Faiers' fiancé, Greg Shepherd. On Wednesday evening, Ferne shared a post urging fans to watch Charlotte Crosby's new reality show – which airs at the same time as Billie and Sam Faiers' programme, The Mummy Diaries. "Buzzing for #TheCharlotteShow Second ep on @MTVUK starting on one hour," she tweeted. Greg was among those who replied to her message, simply writing: "Wow!! #socalledbesties." Ferne has now responded to the TV star, insisting that the reason she promoted Charlotte's show was because she was asked to.

She wrote: "I tweeted for @Charlottegshore show because she asked me to. Simple… There was no malice, no calculated move. That's it. @BillieFaiers &@Gregshepherd_ you know I love you both & will always support you. This just all seems so silly." Ferne, 27, and Billie, 28, have been friends since school, and both appeared with Sam, 27, on TOWIE. Billie was among the first to show her support for Ferne when she spoke about the arrest of her ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins and her pregnancy during an appearance on This Morning in May last year. But according to reports, the pair's friendship has cooled off in recent months.
