“For me, if my friend had said something wrong, disrespected everybody in the UK who works a 9-5, it's my responsibility to say ‘you need to apologise’.
“And I've also said if Liv didn't get involved in my situation with Jess, none of this would be happening."
Diamante actually runs her own businesses, and sent a message to Liv that she should do her research before making comments.
