THE Only Way Is Essex stars Saffron Lempriere and Chloe Brockett have been spotted arguing while filming the reality show's new series.
After locking horns in the series finale of the last Towie instalment, it appears tensions are still running high between the co-stars.
In new pictures from the series 27 filming, Chloe, 20, and Saffron, 28, looked animated as they clashed outside an Essex fish and chip shop.
Both women pointed fingers at each other as they lashed out following a long-standing fallout that began last year.
Ready for the camera, Saffron looking glamorous in black skinny jeans and a nude blazer, wearing her blonde locks in a half-up, half-down style.
Meanwhile Chloe sported a bright yellow jacket, a pair of leather trousers and heeled boots - finishing her look with a full face of make-up.
Saffron, who was previously best friends with Gemma Collins, had a war of words last series after she slammed Chloe for attempting to get back together with Harry Lee, 25.
Harry had only recently split for Frankie Sims, 25, who broke up with the footballer because of his jealousy during their romance.
Heartbroken Frankie complained to Saffron that Chloe had been taking things too far too soon with Harry and "kicking her down".
"I feel like she's kicking me down," she sobbed in the episode. "It's hurting so much more. It's making everything so much worse."
Saffron took it upon herself to confront Chloe, who had a fling with Harry previously, about her flirty behaviour.
"I can't sit and watch a girl broken hearted and know that," a furious Saffron hit out. "Wipe that smirk off your face, I don't think it's funny."
The pair bashed heads again when Harry's best friend Tom McDonnell decided to call Chloe out while they attended a 1920s-themed party.
"At the end of the day, I walked over to Harry, asked how he was and now you're giving it the big'un," Chloe defended herself. "If he didn't want to be there he would have f***ed off, but he didn't."
She continued in another chat: "It did get a bit flirty and my intention was never to hurt Frankie."
Chloe told fellow cast members it was just "a joke" that she wanted to get back with Harry, to which Saffron was having none of it.
"None of my friends had any problem with this," Chloe lashed out at Saffron in their final confrontation. "I thought you were my mate, clearly not."

The blonde beauty clapped back: "Course they wouldn't have. Thank God as a mate that I've told you you're in the wrong. It's not morally right."
