BILLIE Faiers has been branded "out of touch" after showing off an expensive hot tub she got for free - and insisting it is "affordable".

The reality star was slammed by fans as she plugged the freebie on Instagram whilst also having a swimming pool in the background.

The mum shared a clip of her and her kids enjoying the hot tub in their Essex mansion. 

It was gifted by Lazy Spa UK in return for Billie to promote the product on her socials. 

The former Towie star slipped into a black one piece swimsuit which she styled with a pair of glasses as she filmed herself enjoying the bubbles.

The clip then showed son Arthur and youngest daughter Margot splashing around and playing in the water.

 

She captioned the post: “Happy Saturday, AD We love weekends at home when the suns out and are so glad we got the San Francisco hot tub from @layzspauk.

“It’s been the perfect addition to our garden as it’s perfect for keeping the kids entertained but also a great way for Greg and I to relax - the massage jets are brilliant and the seats are really comfy, perfect affordable luxury.”

The video sparked outrage from some followers who claimed the star promoted a product that does not have an ‘affordable’ price tag at £1,500.

One user said: “Most people can't afford to heat their hot tubs any more.

“Pool not good enough for kids,” chimed another.

“Affordable. Promoting a free gift they got with their big swimming pool right next to it!” added a third.

“They don't realise how lucky they are! Why don't they gift it for free not like they need it. Wish it was affordable,” agreed a fourth.

It comes after Billie’s husband Greg Shepard acquired even more wealth after treating himself to some property purchases, buying four in a row.

He snapped up a row of houses at auction and revealed his new purchase on social media back in February.

He shared a video proudly pointing out the four neighbouring homes as he revealed he's bought two four bedroom and two three bedroom homes.

Posting via business account Picture Residential, Greg showed off the new homes as he walked through and discussed the work and big plans for the row of properties.

The account shared the clip with the caption: "Here we have our latest purchase over in Croydon.

"4 properties, x2 4 beds and x2 3 beds.

 

"As you can see these properties are in need of complete renovation. We will be keeping the existing shell of all 4 properties and fully refurbishing the internals, front and back gardens.

"These homes will be totally un-recognisable when completed providing new, clean and habitable spaces. 3 properties will be sold and the 4th will be added to our portfolio."
