TOWIE’s Demi Sims SLAMS ex Francesca Farago over cryptic TikTok video

Demi Sims has slammed her former girlfriend Francesca Farago over a cryptic TikTok video about ‘getting back with an ex’ just days after their shock split.

The TOWIE star, 24, took to Instagram to release a statement on Friday night as she accused the Too Hot To Handle beauty, 27, of ‘falling for her ex-boyfriend again’.

Prior to their relationship, Francesca dated Too Hot To Handle co-star Harry Jowsey with the two splitting in June – it is not known if he is the alleged ex in question. 

Demi penned: ‘Thanks guys for all your messages checking in on me to make sure I’m okay after my ex GF’s TikTok (which btw we’ve only been broke up for a week and she’s already posting about falling for her ex boyfriend again).

‘But I can assure you I’m okay, after having a hard week of crying and a broken heart I’ve now realised I’ve dodged a bullet. I appreciate you all and all your support.’

Demi then shared a screenshot from a fan account where it showed Francesca’s TikTok in question and alleged that the reality star had shared a throwback picture of herself with ex Harry. 

The TOWIE star captioned it with ‘LMAO we’ve been broken up a week…’ 

Signing off her statement, Demi said: ‘Anyways, got to let people get on with it haven’t you. Fresh start tomorrow, I’ll be moving forwards and leaving that part of my life in the past [heart emoji] appreciate all the lovely messages, good night.’

Francesca appeared to hit back at Demi’s claims as she shared a cryptic Instagram Story of her her pet Pomeranian Romeo on Friday night, which she captioned: ‘Only boy I’m falling for’ followed by a heart emoji.

In her TikTok video, which is still uploaded on the platform, the Canadian beauty lipsyncs to Dua Lipa’s Levitating.

It is captioned with ‘single and ready to focus on me’, then the video changes to ‘my ex;’ to which she mimes the lyrics: ‘You want me, I want you, baby’.

MailOnline has contacted Francesca’s representative for comment. 

It comes after Demi and her ex-girlfriend Francesca called it quits last week after a whirlwind four-month romance.

On the next episode of TOWIE, an emotional Demi tells her siblings: ‘I’ve had a mare of a day, me and Francesca broke up’, to which they respond: ‘Oh no!’

On last week’s show, the reality star and her sister Frankie had a heart-to-heart as the model admitted she felt ‘lonely’ ever since she moved out of the home they shared in Essex to live with the Canadian bombshell in London. 

Frankie recalled a chat she had with Amy Childs and Harry about missing her younger sister, sharing: ‘I just told them I was feeling so lonely. You’re my best friend and sister, we haven’t had any time on our own.

‘I feel like we’re so distant. I just feel so empty at the minute Dem. I’m so scared of losing you as you’re everything wrapped up in one Dem. This is the first time we’ve been separated, and it’s just been really hard.’

‘I feel like I’ve always been your rock, I moved out and it wasn’t planned. I’ve missed you too, you’ve always been my best friend’, Demi replied.

Sharing a picture of roses, Francesca confirmed their break-up on Instagram last week, penning: ‘I really didn’t want to have to address this today, but I am already getting attacked on social media so I might as well bite the bullet since I have no choice.

‘Demi and I are no longer together. We decided to go our separate ways this morning. Nothing bad happened. We were both loyal to one another and still love each other.

‘Sometimes people just don’t work perfectly together and that’s OK. We rushed into living together without knowing if our personalities and daily life meshed well together.

‘I wish we could have had a few days to emotionally cope with this in private but we chose to share our entire relationship with you guys which is why I’m posting this now.’

Eagle-eyed fans noticed the former couple had stopped following each other on social media.

Francesca asked her followers to respect her privacy because they are having an ‘extremely difficult time.  

She added: ‘I would have loved to remain friends and in each other’s lives but she thought seeing me on social media would be too difficult for her, which is why she wanted to block me.

‘In life when a couple breaks up this is a coping mechanism and they don’t get scrutinised by thousands of people for how they choose to act after a heartbreaking situation. I want you guys to know nothing bad happened between us.

‘Please be kind and respect our privacy. It is an extremely difficult time for both of us and negative, inaccurate and presumptuous comments make it much more difficult. It did take a toll on our relationship as well.’

The pair had moved in with each other after falling in love on holiday in Mexico, and even got tattoo tributes of their initials.
