SHE'S AN EMPTY BOOK

Telly bosses’ anger at Sam Faiers after she spoils details of new reality show

It seems like the new series of The Baby Diaries is more a one-pager than library

THERE was always drama wherever she went during her days on Towie.

Now SAM FAIERS is causing a headache for her new telly bosses.

I’m told ITV producers have held crisis talks with Sam because she keeps ruining the plotlines for her six-part series The Mummy Diaries.

Sam has spoiled stories from the planned episodes by posting all about her seven-month-old son Paul on social media.

A telly source said: “ITV have had to seriously talk to Sam because there is simply nothing new to go in the show.

“The whole point is to exclusively show special moments in hers and baby Paul’s lives but she’s spoiling them all on social media and in magazine interviews.

"There isn’t much else going on in her life.”

To make matters worse, her property developer partner Paul Knightley is refusing to take part after he was ridiculed for a lingering kiss with his mum and criticised for how he treated Sam in a one-off special earlier this year.

The source added: “At the moment he is dead against taking part but bosses are still hoping he can be persuaded to make a few appearances to whip up some interest.”

An ITV spokeswoman said: "Sam Faiers: The Mummy Diaries follows Sam on her day to day life as a mother in the media spotlight, including engaging with her fans on social media.

"We embrace the fact that Sam has such a loyal following and are very happy that she is keeping them up to date on her journey into motherhood."

Sam said: "This absolutely isn’t true. I love keeping my fans up to date on baby Paul’s progress and production are totally onboard with me posting pictures of him."

Sam’s ex JOEY ESSEX has had plenty of TV success — perhaps she can ask him for some tips.
