The trouble flared after the sisters went to the exclusive Jet Black club in central London during the early hours of Sunday.

Witness Heather Tudor, 27, said a girl accused Billie seen left on the ITV2 show of seeing her boyfriend.

She added: "They screamed abuse and clawed her face. She bled badly."

Sam was also set upon and a man punched Billie before bouncers broke it up but four girls continued the attack outside.

The sisters fled, but later the gang lured Sam to Chigwell to get Billie's stolen mobile where they kicked her unconscious.

Billie's spokesman Luke Mills said: "It was a massively unprovoked attack, which was clearly premeditated. We are assisting police with their inquiries."

A Metropolitan Police spokesman told: "Police received an allegation of theft and assault at approximately 4.30pm on October 23 relating to events that took place at some point during the night of October 22 into 23. Officers will now take steps to establish the full circumstances."
