Sam Faiers’ 30th birthday celebration with mum and sister classed as ‘work’ – avoiding coronavirus lockdown rules

SAM Faiers kicked off her 30th birthday celebrations early last night, hitting the town with her sister Billie and mum Suzie Wells.

The 29-year-old star's big day is not until New Year's Eve, but she couldn't wait any longer to begin the festivities.

The trio raised eyebrows as they stayed at a penthouse suite before heading to fancy Mayfair restaurant Park Chinois together.

The women live across three different households, and current guidelines amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic state that you can only socialise indoors with the people that you live with.

However, there are exceptions under special circumstances - including childcare, single households, and specific work commitments.

A rep for Sam has confirmed that the group were filming the celebrations as part of her and Billie's ITVBe series The Mummy Diaries.

With Sam's party technically classified as work, they are exempt from the lockdown rules.

The Mummy Diaries follows Sam and Billie as they navigate motherhood, with the former Towie stars each having two children with their partners.

The girls also shared sneak peeks into their night on social media yesterday, with Sam filming the group as they sipped on vodka and danced the night away.

The reality star looked incredible for the occasion in a sparkling silver mini dress.

She teamed the stylish look with a pair of strappy heels and a nude clutch bag.

Meanwhile, Billie stunned in a black low-cut jumpsuit as her blonde tresses were loosely waved.

Sharing a snap from the beginning of the night, Sam wrote on Instagram: "It’s a little early in the month.. but let my birthday celebrations begin."
