Reality star and TV personality, Ferne McCann, recently opened up about the "ups and downs" of her relationship with fiancé Lorri Haines amid recent split rumors.
For the unversed, in November 2024, the TOWIE alum turned down the rumours of parting ways from her fiancé, Lorri Haines, after a fallout.
At that time, she quipped that despite facing "tough" times, they were growing stronger together and were looking forward to the New Year.
Now, speaking to OK! magazine, the 34-year-old shed light on her breakup rumours by saying, “My heart sank—I even had family members messaging me and asking what had happened. But we are good. We feel like we have to justify ourselves sometimes because, you know, every couple has their ups and downs.”
She added, 'I think this is my first proper relationship, and we are juggling so much with businesses and raising our children together; we're a blended family with lots of different personalities. Don't get me wrong, we're not constantly upbeat and positive, but we're very much together and doing life together.”
“When you've got multiple children, it's a lot. We're both busy working and it's like any household, it's about the moving parts. Sometimes we can be like passing ships if he's in the office and I'm working – it can be tough,” she quipped taking into account their busy lives.
The Be Tasty star went on to admit that the speculations on social media were hard for her because she focused on the "negative comments," but she had developed "thick skin" after years in the industry.
Moving forward, McCann shared that she and Haines are “back in the same bed” and have started to get “intimacy back” in their relationship.
“You really have to prioritise it when you’ve got children; it’s easy for it to be at the bottom of the pile. We had a baby and are very busy. But now we prioritise intimacy, and communication is key. You get those rare moments where you can have quality time together,” she concluded.
Notably, last year, Ferne confirmed that they were sleeping in separate bedrooms and had seen an intimacy coach.
It is pertinent to mention that the couple shares two daughters named Sunday and Finty.
