Billie Faiers slams Maldives holidaymakers who branded her wedding guests 'chavs'

Billie Faiers has slammed the holidaymakers who branded her wedding guests "chavs" over their "yobbish" antics in the Maldives.

The former Towie star, 29, tied the knot with her Greg Shepherd tied the knot at a luxury five star resort last month, but they came under fire from other tourists who accused them of disrupting their holidays.

She has now spoken out against the hotel guests who criticised her friends, accusing them of yelling at her and filming them as they were trying to have a good time.

In a chat with new! magazine, Billie said: "At first I did let it bother me. Most of the hotel guests were lovely... but there was one guest in particular who kept filming [and shouting]...

"We genuinely weren't doing anything wrong. Some of those stories [from the holidaymakers] made us out to be chavs and we were far from that.

"We were laughing about it. No one was rowdy or rude."

Mirror Online exclusively revealed that guests on the idyllic island of Kuramathi had been complaining about the antics of the wedding party.

One couple told us their £12,000 holiday of a lifetime had been completely ruined.

They said: "We heard them before we saw them," she said.

"They were screaming and shouting. The noise was awful. We had been told to dress appropriately in the restaurants and bar areas but these girls were parading round in bikinis and g-strings."

As more guests arrived the couple said their dream holiday quickly went from "bad to worse".

They added: "They didn't have to pay for any of the drinks and cocktails and they abused it.

"We also saw them leave dirty nappies on the beach, discard their rubbish and have loud water fights.

"One morning we were looking at some sharks after breakfast and some of them started throwing stones at them."
