Billie Faiers told ITV to stop filming new show because she'd 'had enough'

Billie Faiers told ITV to stop filming her new reality show because she'd "had enough".

The new series of Billie & Greg: The Family Diaries will air later this year, but the mum-of-three, 32, said she had to press pause on the production because she was 'so tired'.

Speaking to her sister Sam on their podcast, she said: "We started filming again this week, but it takes time getting back into the swing of things.

"The other day they filmed the whole morning routine. They [the film crew] were at ours all day and it got to about 2pm and I said 'Do you know what guys? I've had enough. I'm really tired, I've hit a brick wall, I can't answer any more of your questions'.

She continued: "I've got a newborn baby and they're just in your house following what you're doing, but sometimes you just need the space. They had been here since 7am - it was time to go," she joked.

Sam agreed, saying: "Having the third child, who is only eight weeks old, it's so tiring. Your day starts at 4am, so by 2am you're done."

Billie said the crew completely understood and filming would resume this week.

The TOWIE star gave birth to her daughter Margot last month and told fans she thought she had baby brain when she was pregnant, but now admitted her mind was "fried".

"I don't remember anything," she admitted. "I cannot concentrate and I cannot get my s**t together. I start doing one thing and have a really productive moment, but when you've got a baby I find myself hovering around her and telling myself 'Don't bother starting that she's going to wake up in a minute'".

Billie has had a lot on her plate after dealing with the fall-out of an illness that took its toll on most of her family over Christmas.

Her mum Suzie and sister Sam explained that Billie's daughter Nelly, eight, caught the flu her aunt had been suffering from.

In a terrifying ordeal, just weeks after giving birth, Suzie revealed they rushed little Nelly to the doctors to get her seen after she lost consciousness when her temperature spiked

Talking on her daughter's podcast, she explained: “Billie had it and then Nelly had it. We had to take her down the doctors because she passed out where her temperature went so high. “

Sam said: “I know, it’s so scary with the kids.

Suzie continued: “Billie wasn’t feeling great, it was just one thing after the other.”
