They say that revenge is a dish best served cold, so perhaps that is why former TOWIE star Amy Childs waited a week to respond to footballer Joey Barton's criticism of her old castmates.
Although if we were being more cynical we might suggest that she held her fire so that she could use it in her column in New magazine - which is available today in all good newsagents.
In case you missed all the kerfuffle, Joey lashed out at the TOWIE cast after seeing them at a video game launch party last week - branding them "freaks" and "helmets" - and displaying a suspicious level of knowledge about the show's characters.
This led to some fairly hostile banter between him and the Essex guys and gals - and culminated in self-styled alpha male Mark Wright challenging Joey to a boxing match (when he gets out of the jungle of course).
But just as the story had died down Amy has decided to stick her oar in as well.
She wrote: "OMG, I can't believe what footballer Joey Barton said about TOWIE on Twitter. He was horrible about Arg and Nanny Pat. He obviously watches the show as he knows so much about it and is just jel.
"Apparently, he has an extra 200,000 followers now - he was clearly using TOWIE as publicity. He needs to shuuut up!"
There's not much chance of that though, knowing Joey.
