Fun in the sun: Billie Faiers is pictured soaking up the sun at her hotel in Las Vegas today

They partied all night the evening before, but no hangover was big enough to keep Billie Faiers and her friends from topping up their tan the morning after.

The TOWIE star kicked off day two of her Las Vegas holiday, sipping on a cocktail as she sunned herself by the pool at the Encore Hotel.

Billie showed off her curves in a skimpy purple bikini as she reclined on a sun lounger.

A series of admirers stopped by to say hello to Billie and her friends as they enjoyed their drinks poolside.

The reality star was pictured sharing a laugh with close pal Charlotte, presumably recalling the previous night's antics at nightclub Surrender where they partied all night.

The girls were spotted holding court at the Vegas hotspot until the early hours, at one point impressing party-goers by back-flipping on the dance floor.

But while Billie continued the party with hair of the dog, others in their group didn't fair as well.

Her sister Sam had to retreat to her hotel suite to sleep off her efforts the night before, ahead of doing it all again tonight.

And another of the TOWIE stars' friends was spotted being sick near the pool as the combination of sun and hangover became too much.

What to do tonight? The girls have a full itinerary of nightclubbing and pool parties

The sisters and their girlfriends descended on Vegas yesterday for a week of fun in the sun.

The group have planned their sojourn to include as much action as possible, including hitting all the hot nightclubs and pool parties.

They got a preview of what they were in for when party planners Vegas Baby tweeted them to 'get some sleep' ahead of them flying out to the US. 'We make Nu Bar look like sun skool!' they added.

Starting off well: Sam and Billie Faiers out in London on October 22 - just hours before the attacks


A young woman in her twenties has been arrested in connection with the nightclub attacks on reality stars Sam and Billie Faiers.

A female in her early 20s was arrested on suspicion of actual bodily harm (ABD) in an East London police station on Friday following the incidents two weeks ago.

Billie, 21, and Sam, 20, were both injured after being attack by a group of girls in two separate incidents in Essex and London.


The first alleged assault took place outside the Jet Black club in Holborn where the sisters had been partying with a group of friends.

Billie said she was hit by a glass and had her £1,500 Mulberry bag stolen, before she headed home without Sam.

Former glamour model Sam was left with black eyes, a split nose, and bruises and scratches on her back after she was set upon by a group of girls in Chigwell, Essex, a few hours later.

She was allegedly lured to Repton Park after one of the people who stole Billie's mobile phone called Sam, promising to return it.

Recovering: Sam's black eyes and Billie's bloody lip were in a recent episode of TOWIE


A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: 'On the morning of Friday November 4 a woman in her early 20s attended an east London police station by appointment, where she was arrested on suspicion of actual bodily harm.

'The arrest is in connection with an investigation into an allegation of theft and assault relating to events that allegedly took place at some point during the night of October 22-23 made to police at approximately 4.30pm on Sunday October 23.

'(She) was later bailed to return to an east London police station in January 2012 pending further inquiries.'

Getting on with life: The Faiers sisters joined co-stars Joey Essex and Harry Derbidge to film the final Series 3 episode in Salcott, Essex yesterday


Both sisters were hospitalised following the attacks, with their recovery being documented on recent episodes of TOWIE.

Speaking about the attack this week, Sam said: 'I tried to cover my face as best as I could but they just kept aiming for my head. I then fell unconscious.

'My friend Charlotte was trying to get me up, but they dragged her away and ripped clumps of her hair out, and just kept kicking me.

'When one of the girls started screaming, "She’s not moving! She’s dead!". She started crying hysterically, because she honestly thought they’d killed me. That was the only time they stopped.'

Getting on with their lives: Sam and Billie Faiers were spotted in the supermarket in Brentwood, Essex, this afternoon


Sam and Billie Faiers have vowed to get justice following the horrific girl gang attack they were seriously injured in.

The sisters, from hit TV show The Only Way Is Essex, visited the police station yesterday to discuss proceeding with the investigation, and have now promised to see the 'animals' who targeted them caught.

Sam and Billie made the promise as they attempted to get on with their lives with a trip to the supermarket this morning.


Smiling through the pain: Both girls managed smiles on their shopping trip

While they kept their faces hidden behind large sunglasses, the girls appeared in relatively good spirits as they popped to Sainsbury's in Brentwood, Essex.

And despite Billie looking glamorous in a bronze top and black trousers, Sam looked uncharacteristically casual in a vest top, jeans and flat boots.

While the pair kept their heads down in the store, they looked happier as they unloaded the shopping back at the home they share with their parents.


Catching up on gossip: The girls looked very interested in one of the celebrity magazines they had picked up in the supermarket


Stocking up: The girls perused the crisps aisle in the Brentwood store

Billie and Sam vowed this morning that they would catch the people who attacked them.

Billie told The Sun: 'We want these animals caught and punished for what they've done to us.'

After the vicious attack, which took place last weekend, Sam was rushed to hospital for a brain scan after she was lured to an estate near Chigwell, Essex on false pretenses and beaten unconscious.

The incident happened shortly after her older sister Billie, 21, was robbed and attacked by the same gang in a London nightclub. She suffered bruising and a split lip.


Investigation: The girls, seen here at Ilford Police Station yesterday, were both seriously injured in the attack


Moving on: The girls, seen here on last night's TOWIE, are now trying to move on with their lives

A spokesperson for Sam added: 'The girls attended Ilford Police station so officers could record their injuries.

'We are determined those responsible are caught and prosecuted. This was an appalling and unprovoked attack. We are co-operating fully with the police.'

And police also confirmed they will be 'taking steps' to assess what happened.

A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: 'Officers are taking steps to establish the full circumstances of what happened.'

Sam and Billie are both attempting to move on following the traumatic attack.


Support: The girls' friends, including Lucy Mecklenburgh and Joey Essex, were seen taking gifts around to the Faiers house

They were seen on last night's show being comforted by friends and family, with Sam's new boyfriend Mark Wright attempting to comfort her as they enjoyed an evening in together.

The girls have both been taking to their Twitter pages to thank fans for their support following the attack.

Sam wrote yesterday: 'Thank u for all ur amazing messages :-) u all make me happy x'
While Billie added previously: 'Thank you to all my lovely friends coming round to see us today, I love you all.'

Speaking earlier this week about the attack, Sam had said she feared for her life when she was set upon by the girl gang.

She said: 'I've been told one girl started screaming. She thought they had killed me because I wasn't moving.

'If a kick had landed any differently I could be dead.'

Out for the first time: Sam and Billie Faiers finally left their home and drove to the Ilford Police Station following the brutal attack on Saturday night

Sam and Billie Faiers have left their home for the first time since the brutal attack during which Sam was beaten until unconscious on Saturday night.

Both wearing sunglasses, the sisters drove immediately to Ilford police station.

The pair have been recovering since they were assaulted and robbed by girl gang in Essex and London last weekend.

Horrific: Sam was beaten until unconscious by a girl gang who lured her to an estate near Chigwell, Essex on false pretenses

Sam has insisted that she is on the mend from the injuries for which she was hospitalised, tweeting earlier today: 'Just finished some filming, having lunch and tea at home :-) still resting, but nearly feeling 100% mainly thanks to all u guys :-) x x x'

She showed her determination to continue with life as normal, adding later: 'Not sure where the rumours have come from that I'm leaving Towie? I did not say this :-) x x x'

The glamour model looked composed as she arrived at the station, wrapping up in a leopard print scarf, walking in a pair of high-heeled black boots.

Composed: Sam, who has said that she is well on the mend, entered the police station in characteristic leather boots

Her sister Billie was likewise well put-together, also in black boots, with burgundy trousers and a black top.

Sam, 20, was beaten until she was unconscious after she was lured to an estate near Chigwell, Essex on false pretences.

The incident happened shortly after her older sister Billie, 21, was robbed and attacked by the same gang in a London nightclub.

Covering up: Billie, who suffered a nasty cut lip in the attack, hid her face as she and Sam left the police station

It was the first time the girls had been seen out since the attack so it was no surprise that they were the centre of attention

Sam and Billie were absent from Chelmsford Dance Studio yesterday, where the gang met up to film for TOWIE.

Sam's best friend Harry Derbidge, Chloe Sims and Lauren Pope were all seen in an emotional embrace outside the studio.

The trio were then joined by Lauren Goodger and Frankie Essex and looked deep in conversation.

They were perked up by bubbly Gemma Collins however, who was seen being twirled around by one of the Georgiades twins.

There to make her feel better: Sam's ex Joey Essex showed up at the house with presents

Tigger: Thoughtful Joey brought Sam a cuddly toy to cheer her up

Sam spoke of her horrifying assault yesterday, admitting she thought 'I was going to die'.

Billie explained how a fun night out turned sinister when the group of girls surrounded her on the dancefloor at the Jet Black club near Tottenham Court Road.

After she was cut by a glass or bottle in the club, the action moved outside, when she was kicked and punched by members of the group.

A friend in need: Lucy Mecklenburgh showed up with a bunch of flowers at the Faiers' house

Sombre: The cast have missed Sam and Billie during filming this week

She told The Sun: 'They were punching me and hitting me with their high heels when I was on the ground. They pulled my hair and dragged me along the street.

'I thought, "I'm in real trouble now". No one could help me. They took my shoes, my bag and my phone. I can only compare them to wild animals.'

After an injured Billie was driven home to her friend Greg Shephard's house in Chigwell, her younger sister Sam was travelling home separately in a taxi.

Showering her with gifts: Joey also brought Sam a large bunch of flowers

She then received a phonecall from one of the alleged assailants, who promised to give her back her sister's belongings.

Sam told the paper: 'They just came at me like a herd of elephants.

'It's just a blur. I was being so violently attacked by so many girls there was nothing I could do but curl up into a ball. Then I passed out.'

Also thinking of the girls: Mark Wright was pictured buying a gigantic teddy bear

Attacked: Billie doubles over as she is attacked in front of spectators


This is the moment that TOWIE star Billie Faiers, 21, was the victim of an allegedly unprovoked attack outside a London nightclub.

Trouble started on Saturday evening during a night out with sister Sam, 20, at The Jet Black Club off Tottenham Court Road.

The group of girls targeted Billie, stealing her £1,500 Mulberry handbag containing her mobile phone and cash.


Sam and Billie complained to bouncers, who then threw the culprits out.

However, it was when reality TV beauty Billie left the club that she was attacked by screaming girls waiting outside the venue.

A passer-by caught the action on their camera phone, which shows Billie being thrown to the floor, being called a 'slag' and having her hair yanked.

The pavements were thronging with revellers who stopped to witness the action, yet no one appeared to be able to successfully break up the fight.

Dragged away: Billie is pulled away by her arm as she continues to argue with someone on the opposite side of the railings

Eventually, she made her escape and and took a taxi back to a friend’s
house in Essex.

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 added: '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.'

Lending a hand: A group of men try to protect Billie from getting into further danger

Seeking revenge: Billie decides she wants to confront the girls again and turns back on herself

Later that night, sister Sam allegedly received a call on her mobile phone saying she would get Billie's phone back if she she met them in a field at Repton Park in Chigwell, Essex.

When she and a friend went to the spot, she was allegedly attacked by 10 girls who are believed to have run away after thinking they had killed her.

A spokesman for Sam said: 'It was an unprovoked and horrific attack.'

Sam's friend, who was also attacked, took her by taxi to the hospital, where Billie later joined them.

Intimidating: An unknown girl then approaches Billie, as the TOWIE star stumbles around and tries to find her footing

Sam’s manager Adam Muddle from Money North said: 'Both girls
are now recovering at home.'

Today, the sisters took to their Twitter pages to thank fans for their support.

Sam wrote: 'Just want to say a big thank you to everyone. I love u all lots. Am resting up all day. Thank you for your kind messages xx.'

Billie added: 'Thank you to everyone for your kind and supportive tweets xxx.'


Confrontation: Unknown of the dangers ahead, Billie walks back to the girl screaming at her

The Faiers' co-stars have been showing their support on Twitter, with many of the TOWIE crew saying the attack was sparked by jealousy.

Mark Wright wrote: 'Hearts with @SamanthaFaiers and @BillieFaiers 2night. Chin up girls its jealousy. Get well. Thinking of u. Love u both x'

James 'Arg' Argent revealed he had spoken to Sam and 'thank God she said shell be ok!'

Maria Fowler added: 'Sending my love to @SamanthaFaiers and @BillieFaiers hope they're ok. Jealousy is an illness!!! be strong girls! xxxxxxx'

Victim: A girl approaches Billie from behind and yanks her hair, making her fall to the ground

Cat fight: Billie's female attacker is then led away by a security guard

While Chloe Sims said: 'Thinking of you tonight girls @SamanthaFaiers @BillieFaiers big kiss and cuddle, xxx'

Lydia Bright and Lauren Pope also sent condolences, while Harry Derbridge wrote: 'Sending all my love to sam and billie, when I found out I was so upset. Them girls are so lovely, shows what jealous brings!

Thinking of you: Friends and family of Sam and Billie left flowers at their house today to wish them well

Worried: Sam and Billie's mother Suzanne Wells drives away after spending some time with her girls

'feeling really sad tonight, them girls are so lovely and did not deserve it at all, love you so much girls, i will always be there for yous!

'@BillieFaiers love you sooo much, gonna try come see you tomorrow, love you xxxxxxx'

Lucy Mecklenburgh said whoever committed the crime 'should b ashamed' adding, 'Hope they get wat they deserve! Scum!'
