FERNE McCann has been called for emergency meetings at ITVBe after she allegedly featured in another damning voice note.
Television insiders said ITV were in contact with Ferne, 32, after the leaked audio was made public and that they were in discussions about how to move forwards.
ITV has halted filming of First Time Mum while it holds talks with Ferne.
A source said: “Ferne’s reputation is in tatters.
“ITV were due to start filming the next series of her show First Time Mum in the coming weeks but now it’s all up in the air.
“Conversations are ongoing about when the show may resume filming in light of all that has gone on.
“ITV have held talks with Ferne about the situation and they will continue to speak with her to see where they go from here.
“They have worked with her for over a decade – from her early day on Towie, to I’m A Celebrity, and then First Time Mum – and want to see how this plays out.”
The latest private audio message, which is being investigated by police, mocked Sophie Hall who was scarred for life when the reality star’s then boyfriend threw acid into a London club in 2017.
The voice says: “I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“The silly b**** has made a dress, a papier-mâché dress out of the cuttings from the event.
“She will probably win it. I’m not going to lie. Only because the awards she entered are probably loving all this free press. So they will probably fix it, she will win. She is one ugly f***ing c***.”
In messages leaked in September, Ferne allegedly branded her pal Sam Faiers a “fat c***”.
“Her thighs are so big and I looked really skinny today,” the voice continued.
They are said to have been recorded a year after Ferne’s then boyfriend Arthur Collins threw acid into a London club in 2017.
In an interview with The Sun Sophie, 27, said: “Why should anyone who has been so cruel be given the platform to tear others down?
“ITV don’t just need to take action for my sake, but for other leaked voice notes. The ones which were body shaming and so unkind.”
