Ferne McCann is currently living the high life in the Middle East with her new man Lorri Haines but their fairytale romance was hit with a scandal after a video emerged of him sniffing white powder.
In the footage obtained by The Sun, Lorri can be seen dancing topless and sniffing powder from a clear bag as a friend off camera can be heard saying, "No, No Ket, No Ket. Put the ket down."
Ket is short for Ketamine, a Class A drug in the UK and Dubai.
But despite the video, Lorri told the same publication that he wasn't taking drugs and was just "joking around".
It comes after Ferne sent fans into a frenzy after her real estate agent boyfriend shared a cryptic post on Instagram.
Lorri shared a snap of him and Ferne cosying up to each other on social media and while it was very cute, what really got tongues wagging was the love heart emoji that he mysteriously used to cover up the former TOWIE star's hand.
Does this mean what we think it means? Are Ferne and Lorri about to walk down the aisle? Watch this space, folks...
This comes after reports claimed Ferne McCann is making a major move to ensure her relationship with Dubai-based Lorri goes the distance.
The former TOWIE star recently returned to her native Essex after living her best life in the UAE hotspot with her boyfriend and it's said that she will divide her time between the two locations going forward.
A source told heat, "Ferne’s life has been turned upside down after meeting Lorri. She’s so in love.
"She knows it seems sudden, but she has told friends that she now wants to move to Dubai and start a new life with him. She knows so many people out there and everyone raves about it being a tax haven – so money-wise, she thinks it would be a smart move, too.
"But her friends are worried she is making a rushed decision. She’s not exactly had the best luck with the men she meets, and they feel that Ferne should take some more time getting to know Lorri before she decides to move to a different country for him."
The pair have made their relationship Instagram official and even dropped the L-bomb when he posted a picture of them taking a loved-up selfie with the caption, "When you know, you know… ❤️."
Ferne quickly took to the comments section and wrote, "I love you my darling ❤️❤️," to which Lorri replied, "Love you toooo ❤️." Ferne’s BFF Sam Faiers also commented, adding, "😍 new couple alert ❤️🥂 x."
Ferne’s fans have loved seeing her enjoying her new romance following a rocky love life which has seen her baby daddy and ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins jailed following an acid attack and model boyfriend Jack Padgett split from her last year amid claims their relationship wasn’t "on-brand" for him.
"OMG! This is sooooo cute! So happy for you babe," wrote one, while another added, "Couple goals alert! Ferne you deserve all the happiness in the world."
A third commented, "Looking cute AF. You two are adorable."

Ferne first began dating former scaffolder Arthur in June 2016 but they split a few months later following a trip to Ibiza.
