Ferne showed off her incredible post-baby body in tight trousers and a crop top as she carried her little girl in a car seat.
She was seen loading the tot into her car along and she was also seen carrying a bag of clothes as they headed out.
It looked like Ferne had stayed over with her mum after a long day yesterday as she went to see Arthur behind bars.
The TV star travelled 440 miles from Essex to a maximum security prison Full Sutton, in York, with the five-month-old baby.

She was snapped carrying Sunday in a blanket moments after coming face-to-face with her former lover.
It follows claims Collins sought legal action to see his daughter from behind bars.
A source told The Sun Online: "Ferne went to visit Arthur because it is his legal right to see Sunday.
"She is doing it because she has to. Not because she wants to.

"Of course she's not happy about having to take her daughter into a jail, what mother would be?"
Ferne previously told the Sun on Sunday that Collins hit her with a legal letter asserting his right to see his daughter and be involved in her life.
The demand initially prompted an exchange of letters between their lawyers.
But Ferne says it made her confront the fact Collins will, at some stage, be involved in Sunday’s life.
She has now decided not to fight his assertion, after seeking advice from her own lawyers and a child psychologist.
The star pledged to have "absolute control of the situation".

Speaking at the time, Ferne said: “It is a huge thing to have to make decisions you are forced into. I have to think of Sunday and what is best for her.
"It hasn’t been an easy decision and some people may think I’m wrong. But the last thing I want to do is hide what is going on.
“I’m with Sunday every day of her life and she is my number one priority.

"I am doing this so she can make her own choice when she’s older, rather than me forcing it on her now.
“I hope it is the right decision, and I think it is.
"Having accepted that position I had to accept I would probably also need to see Arthur again.
“If Arthur has to see Sunday, then I want absolute control of the situation. If she is going into a prison I want to be with her and know she’s OK.
