She recently received backlash from victims of her acid attacker ex Arthur Collins, after claiming it was difficult to have his child on her ITVBe documentary.

But Ferne McCann appeared to put the claims behind her on Sunday, as she slipped into a festive velvet suit for a Christmas lunch in London.

The former TOWIE star took inspiration from the 70s in the green number, paired with pastel blue platform heels - having already proved her chic sense of style in another retro ensemble earlier that day.

The 27-year-old showcased her impressive post-baby body in the ensemble as she chatted to friends while out for a group lunch.

The mother-of-one looked sensational in the dark green two-piece, which hugged her enviably slender frame and long legs all the way to the floor.

As if her look wasn't bold enough, Ferne then added a slick of matte plum lipstick for an added pop of colour - which she teamed with rich gold bronzer and lashings of mascara.

Ferne had already proved her chic sense of style earlier that day, by stepping out in a sleek grey skirt and co-ordinating thigh-high boots.

Her lightly curled locks were partly covered under a retro baker boy hat as she headed to her car, and embarked on her next destination.

Ferne was the picture of confidence during her busy day - despite recently receiving backlash for discussing the difficulties of having a baby with acid attacker Arthur Collins, 25, on her new show Ferne McCann: First Time Mum.

The reality star's former boyfriend injured more than 14 people at Mangle nightclub in April, in one the worst acid attacks Britain has seen.

In the show, which aired on ITVBe on Tuesday, she described her life since Arthur's arrest as 'absolute hell' - a claim that angered some of his victims.

Phoebe Georgiou, who was left with devastating injuries after Arthur hurled the substance across the dance floor, told The Sun: 'It's like rubbing salt on an open wound. She has disregarded our feelings. We are the real victims.'

The 23-year-old said it felt like Ferne was 'cashing in' and making money from her connection to the sickening crime.

Another unnamed victim told the paper: 'She's making money out of this, it's all just me, me, me. Every time her face pops up, I think of Arthur Collins.'

Phoebe has suffered night terrors and anxiety in crowded places since the attack and now struggles to get out of the house.

Speaking after the attacker was found guilty, she said: 'It's not just physically scarring, it's mentally which is the hardest.

Better times: It was revealed the pair were an item back in June 2016 – but they split last summer following a trip to Ibiza

'Now I have a life sentence to deal with, with scars and mental injuries. And I have to see a therapist about twice a week because I'm dealing with such bad anxiety and panic attacks and sleep paralysis.'

Ferne is said to deny 'cashing in' on the crime. Her representatives have been approached by MailOnline for comment.

New mother Ferne is believed to have told the father of her child that he will never see their newborn baby Sunday again.

She reportedly confronted her former fiancé while visiting him in prison with their daughter and told him: 'This is the last time you will ever see us.'
