But the mum-of-three insisted she is cutting down the washing line as it damages her fence, with cops called to the street over the row.
Speaking to the Sun Online, Dawn said: “She has strung that washing line on my fence and it has been damaging my fence, that is why I keep cutting it down.
“I have been in touch with the police and Leeds City Council, who own her house, and made numerous complaints about her.

Dawn hit back, saying: "If she puts it on my fence again I’ll be getting the scissors out again.
“Putting it on TikTok is just silly.”
