Ulrika Johnsson has launched a scathing attack on Max George after he gave her the middle finger for criticizing his girlfriend Maisie Smith.
TV presenter Ulrika, 55, has slammed former EastEnders actress Maisie, 21, after sparking split rumors of The Wanted Max singer after she shared a social media video of herself crying with the caption: “You didn’t deserve me”.
But that didn’t sit well with Swedish-British TV and TV personality Ulrika Jonsson, 55, who gave her scathing opinion on the “absurd” post, calling actress Maisie “self-indulgent” and of “very dramatic”.
Ulrika’s response prompted Max to take to her Instagram page and give Ulrika the middle finger, and she’s now fired back, slamming her comeback and reported cheating on ex Stacey Giggs.

After insisting she still stands by her comments about Maisie, Ulrika wrote in The Sun: “You truly are the gift that keeps on giving.” It was really very nice of you. You must know how much I love me a middle finger.
“And that was your response to the fact that last week I gave a perfectly reasonable criticism to your girlfriend Maisie Smith.”
Referring to Max’s alleged cheating on her ex Stacey, Ulrika ranted, “So it’s good to know that I’ve been on your mind, Max. Despite the fact that you already have a girlfriend.

In August, Stacey accused her ex Max of cheating on her with her Strictly Maisie co-star.

“Max cheated on me with Maisie. I asked him about her, but he denied anything happened.
‘After everything I’ve done for him, I can’t believe he’s so rude and disrespectful. He’s a lying dog. I feel betrayed.’
Ulrika slammed Maisie’s social media post after posting a video of herself crying, which she said had her friends and family worried.

“Surely sadness, grief, personal trauma or bereavement is something private – not something you deal with?
‘To do what Maisie did, which was to accompany her tears with a cryptic message and dramatic music that had everyone tearing their hair out in worry for her, full of anxiety – then in a later post to be photographed smooching her boyfriend’s face like nothing happened is insulting.
And in response to Ulrika’s scathing remarks, Max came to his girlfriend’s defense with a very blunt Instagram post.
Sharing with his 360,000 followers on his Stories, Max wrote, “Just for you Ulrika” alongside a photo of him standing in an elevator with his middle finger towards the camera.

Since their relationship became public this summer, Max and Maisie have been very public in their displays of affection for each other.

In the clip, Maisie had a single tear rolling down her cheek, before wiping her eyes and cuddling her dog for comfort.
TikTok’s final moment showed a red-eyed Maisie looking away from the camera lens.
While the video has the caption on screen: “You didn’t deserve me”, Maisie is then shown saying the words “at all”.
She captioned the video: “Nothing but happiness these days.”
Her post sparked a flurry of comments from Maisie fans expressing concern, with one writing, “Hope you’re feeling better!” You are amazing and so inspiring.
Last week, they first sparked engagement rumors last week when she was spotted wearing a ring on her wedding finger while on a romantic trip.
