They’ve been living it up in New York with her mum Sue Wells during a surprise birthday trip for Billie Faiers’ 30th birthday.
But things went slightly pear-shaped on Monday as Sam Faiers revealed that her big sister had refused her gift of a helicopter ride over the Big Apple, complaining that she was too ‘scared’.
Documenting the hilarious scenario on her Instagram stories, Sam, 29, shared an image of Billie breaking down in tears as she struggled to face her fear of heights.
Oh no: On Monday Sam Faiers revealed that her big sister Billie had refused her gift of a helicopter ride over the Big Apple, complaining that she was too ‘scared’
The image sees Billie, who sported a pretty floral jumper, with her head bowed and wiping away tears following Sam’s big surprise.
Captioning the picture, former TOWIE star Sam wrote: ‘Ok so for @billiefaiersofficial final birthday surprise I booked a helicopter ride to see New York…
‘Unfortuntately we didn’t make it. Billie is crying here because she doesn’t want to do it. Poor sis, she said she was scared. My mission this year is to get her to get her fear.’ [sic]
However, all was soon well as the glamorous trio soon found another mode of transport to see the city.

The girls were heard giggling away as Sam panned the camera around.
And it certainly was a chilly trip as another clip showed the famous sisters wrapped up in balaclavas amid the minus two degrees temperature.
But despite their fun time on the ferry in which they took in the stunning skyline, Sam couldn’t help but take one last dig at her sister’s rejection of her present.

On Thursday, fans were wowed when Sam took to social media to reveal she had gifted Billie with a Louis Vuitton bag and a trip to New York alongside their mum as a 30th present.
The ladies were living the life of luxury as they jetted away on Friday in First Class yet things got off to a rocky start when Billie lashed out a ‘fun-sucking’ member of BA staff, who claimed they were making too much noise.

Sharing an impassioned message on Instagram, the birthday girl fairly thanked the majority of staff but hit out at one member, in a message shared after a series of clips showed the trio enjoying champagne cocktails and wine.
Yet the ladies have since moved on from their travel woes and have been sharing all their snaps from their trips around the Big Apple – including carriage rides in Central Park and a trip to Times Square.
When Sam shared a stunning snap from her trip to the iconic location, she posed in a cream ensemble with a Louis Vuitton handbag and a full length fur coat – which riled Instagram users.

Stunner followers and animal rights activists, penned: ‘That coat. Unfollowed. Deleting any negative posts… why? Shame on you wearing Mink. Only mink should wear mike!!!… I’m surprised she dare it out in public… Yes it is beautiful ON THE ANIMALS. Love a mink. On a mink.’
In a hilarious twist, Sam revealed they were in fact booked to return to the eatery but could not make it, seemingly from the excess of the previous day. They instead opted for hot dogs in the street.
MailOnline has contacted a representative for Sam for comment yet at the time of publication there was no confirmation if Sam’s fur coat is real or faux.
Obviously feeling wild, the ladies posted a number of their trip to iconic French brasserie Balthazar, where they were seen dancing, rocking out and having a laugh.
