Trouble in Paradise
MARNIE Simpson slapped on-off boyfriend Lewis Bloor in the middle of a luxury Dubai hotel, according to an eyewitness.
The Geordie Shore star jetted to the Emirates city with the 27-year-old earlier this week and took to Instagram on Sunday to say the former couple were trying to "salvage some sort of a friendship".

However, an onlooker at the luxury Waldorf Astoria caught on camera the moment Marnie lashed out at Lewis while in the company of another couple at around 8.30pm on Sunday night.
The source exclusively told The Sun Online: "We were sat on the balcony and we saw red wine all over the floor, we were sat very close to them.
"Lewis was sat with his shirt off in just his shorts which obviously, in a country like this, isn't what you're meant to be doing.
"Marnie came out screaming at him, accusing him of stealing her card and proceeded to slap him.
"There were two other people with them as well and they were all sat together."

The video shows pals of the on-off couple trying to cool the situation, with Lewis seemingly out of shot behind a pillar until he eventually gets up and walks away in just his shorts.
Marnie can be heard shouting: "No, no, no, you've got my bank card. He's got my bank card."

After someone from her party replies, she can be heard saying: "Yes you do, you do, you do have it. You've just left me upstairs on my own.
"I f***ing hate you."
The onlooker added the couple were "definitely drunk" and it seemed like Marnie had thrown red wine over Lewis, which would explain why he was shirtless.

The eyewitness added: "Plain clothed police officers took him aside and her inside away from each other and escorted them out.
"It's a very nice hotel and it was a very big scene.
"There was about 15 other people along the balcony all watching it going on."
Lewis reportedly remained quiet throughout his ex-girlfriends tirade, before apologising to guests around him for causing a scene, adding there were "two sides to every story".

It isn't the first time the Geordie Shore beauty and the ex-Towie star have clashed over money, as in the aftermath of their February split, Marnie claimed she had "provided" for Lewis throughout their relationship and he had had "thousands and thousands" out of her.
Marnie's ex, Aaron Chalmers then claimed she had spent £25,000 on Lewis, however she later released a statement denying she had spent that much money on him during their relationship.
The Sun Online has contacted representatives for both Marnie and Lewis.
