Jamie Laing, James Dunmore, Lucy Watson and Lauren Hutton - who are currently filming for the Los Angeles spin-off of the E4 show - were among those seen fleeing the beach in Malibu as a number of deadly sharks began circulating shores nearby.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "The cast went for a dip then there was a real commotion. They were shaken up. There's been a few attacks recently."

Every year around 75 shark attacks are reported around the world however the US has seen an unusually high number of incidents in recent months and in June alone there were eight attacks on US shores, which is three times more than is usual for this time of year.

Meanwhile, the snap-happy cast have been documenting their fun in the sun on social media and the latest gossip from across the pond is that Lucy Watson and Stephanie Pratt have rekindled their friendship following their fall-out at the end of the last series.

The news comes after it was reported Stephanie has split from boyfriend Josh Shepherd.

Meanwhile, Lucy now has a new boyfriend of her own as she's been dating James Dunmore.
