The victim of Ferne McCann 's ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins' acid attack has hit back at a sweary voice note – which is allegedly sent from Ferne – where she called her an "ugly f***ing c***".

Back in 2017, Ferne's then-boyfriend Arthur Collins threw acid in Sophie Hall's face in a London club which left her scarred for life.

Now 27-year-old Sophie, who was 21 at the time of the attack, has called for ITV to take action against Ferne if it is her in the voice clips, writes The Mirror.

Ferne's ITV reality show First Time Mum is said to have stopped production while the TV company probes the alleged leaked messages. Sophie said after hearing the clip she felt sick to her stomach after Ferne branded her a vile name.

Speaking to The Sun, Sophie said: "Why should anyone who has been so cruel be given the platform to tear others down?"

The voice note in question was posted by an anonymous Instagram account, which claimed the note was by Ferne. The social media post claims that the recording was from one year after the 2017 attack, which happened at a nightclub while Sophie had been celebrating a friend's birthday. She has been left with serious scarring on her face and arms.

In the recording, a woman can be heard in the clip talking about Sophie entering a pageant while wearing a dress which was produced from headlines about the attack. The voice said: "I don't know whether to laugh or cry. The silly b**** has made a dress, a papier-mâché dress out of the cuttings from the event.

"She will probably win it. I’m not going to lie. Only because the awards she entered are probably loving all this free press. So they will probably fix it, she will win. She is one ugly f***ing c***."

There is nothing to suggest the event or organisers
