Tommy Mallett and Georgia Kousoulou have lashed out at ‘The Only Way is Essex’.
The couple came under fire during last night’s (17.09.17) episode after the shoe designer made Megan McKenna – who has become the nation’s sweetheart following the launch of her country music career – cry by claiming she had "no friends", and the abuse he received after his remarks has led to him launching a foul-mouthed rant.
Taking to his Twitter account after the episode, Tommy wrote in a since-deleted post: "After watching that scene… The only way is Essex can go f*** themselves… That’s all I’m saying. Big up Towie…. Little snakes (sic)"
After he erased his tweet, he quickly followed it up by sharing the quote: "People are blind to reality and only see what they want to see."
He then claimed that fans will be back on his side next week when they watch the episode to follow and he’s not bothered if people continue to hate him.
He said: "You’ll love me next week… & if you don’t… Go brush your teeth (sic)"
The pair’s co-star Chloe Sims – who fell out with Megan and her boyfriend Pete Wicks during the last series before the summer – immediately jumped to their defence.
She wrote: "Just caught up #towie @MissGeorgiakx you are an absolute BOSS people got short memories your about the snide comments last series."
And then added: "As for keep dragging up @tommy_mallet he just says what everyone else is too scared to. (sic)"
Tommy found himself in hot water after he claimed the only reason Megan had made up with the rest of the ‘Girl Band’ was because she didn’t have any friends left.
His comments then got back to the ‘High Heeled Shoes’ hitmaker – who claimed Number 1 and 2 in the iTunes Download Chart this month – and she burst into tears.
