Ferne McCann breaks her silence on leaked voicenotes after revealing she’s pregnant with second baby
FERNE McCann has spoken out regarding the scandal around a series of voice messages.
In November 2022, an anonymous Instagram account – called Lady Whistledown after the Bridgerton secret gossip sharer – posted a series of voice messages from a woman they claimed was Ferne.
In the clips, which were released over a period of days, a woman went on a series of vicious rants about someone entering a beauty pageant and calling them an "ugly f***ing c**t".
This is believed to be about Sophie Hall – one of the acid attack victims of Ferne's ex-boyfriend, Arthur Collins – who entered Miss England in 2018 in a bid to get back her confidence.
In another voice note they targeted Ferne's former pal Sam Faiers, calling her a "fat c**t" while boasting in comparison they looked "really skinny".
Ferne, who has just announced she is pregnant with her second baby, has briefly addressed the alleged voice notes in a new interview, saying the circumstances around them will be dealt with on an upcoming series of her reality show, First Time Mum.

“It will be addressed on the show, but there’s not a lot I can say, which is so frustrating,” she told
“I am definitely someone who has always worn their heart on their sleeve and been transparent with anyone I meet, especially my followers and the people who watch my show.
"The frustration comes from just not being able to be fully transparent and I cannot wait to share my full truth and the full story, but unfortunately, I can’t because there is the criminal investigation and for that reason I can’t go into detail.
"What I will say is we just want to look forward as a family, working as a team and remaining positive because that’s all you can be," she added.

In the same interview, Ferne finally confirmed she and fiancé Lorri Haines were expecting a baby together.
This will be Ferne's second child, having had five-year-old daughter Sunday with Arthur Collins, who is now serving 20 years in prison for the nightclub acid attack.
She said: "It wasn’t planned, but it wasn’t not planned. For us both being parents, they’re little miracles and it was such a positive moment and something to look forward to for us."
The announcement was then celebrated by her Towie pals including James 'Arg' Argent, and Danielle Armstrong.
Ferne McCann: First Time Mum is available on ITVBe and ITVX on 15 March at 9pm.
