Billie Faiers and her fiancée Greg Shepherd appear to have very different opinions when it comes to how they should dress their three-year-old daughter Nelly.

In the latest episode of The Mummy Diaries, mum-of-two Billie and her partner Greg Shepherd are seen debating over whether their daughter Nelly is too young to wear a bikini during their trip to the Maldives.

During the brand new episode, which airs tonight on ITVBe, the couple clash over Nelly's holiday wardrobe and Billie admits that she hid the purchase of a new bikini for their three year old from Greg as she worried he would be against it.

During the show, which looks behind closed doors into the lives of Sam and Billie Faiers and their families, mum Billie can be seen overlooking a pile of clothes all of which are Nelly's.

Speaking directly to the camera Billie says: 'Where do I start? We're going to the Maldives for 12 days so I'm sorting out the kids' stuff. All of this is Nelly's and then these two little piles are Arthur's.'

Holding a two-piece swimsuit Billie explains: 'This is Nelly's first bikini but I haven't shown it to Greg because maybe she's too young to have her first bikini. I just thought it's so cute.'

The mum-of-two also reveals she and her daughter have matching outfits for the trip. She said: 'Also I've got us matching outfits and I know it's so over the top and this is Nelly's version and I've for the adult version. Very tropical.

'I'm a really good packer in that I never forget anything but I'm a really bad packer in that I always over pack.'

While Billie continues to joke about her packing habits, including her obsession with taking Tupperware away with her, Greg walks in a spots the bikini.

His thoughts are instantly made clear as he exclaims: 'Ah not a bikini. She's too young for a bikini. She is.'

While holding baby Arthur in his arms Greg adds: 'No I just think she's a bit too young for it. Kids in bikinis it's like nah.'
