Farrah Abraham is to press charges against Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace who she claims assaulted her twice during an explosive row which broke out when the two reality stars appeared on Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side on Tuesday.

Farrah, 24 - who rose to fame on the American series Teen Mom - informed the public that she has handed the matter over to the police in a lengthy statement, posted to her Twitter account on Saturday.

The American said: 'I have pressed charges against Aisleyne and am considering issuing a lawsuit against Janice [Dickinson],' as she shared the first image of the injury - for which she has since sought medical attention - she sustained during the violent outburst.

'It is now in the hands of police': Farrah Abraham confirmed she is pressing charges against Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace - who she claims assaulted her twice during an explosive episode of CBBBOTS on Tuesday - on Saturday

The aftermath: Farrah, 24, unveiled her bruised lower-back - sustained when an on-air argument between her and Aisleyne broke out

Physical fighting erupted after Aisleyne and Farrah started arguing over who had 'anger issues' with the Londoner attempting to throw champagne over the American during the live broadcast of the Big Brother spin-off show.

In her detailed account of events, Farrah claims she only reacted to Aisleyne's attack - which she claims was 'planned and pre-meditated' - by throwing two champagne glasses in her direction to make her 'back off'.

Her statement read: 'I was deeply shocked and traumatised following the initial attack by Aisleyne and was very frightened she was going to attack me again or glass me, so my natural instinct was to jump up and do something to defend myself to make Aisleyne back-off.

'If I hadn't of thrown a glass on the floor and at the wall in defence to make her back off, I believe she may have attacked me further. I was frightened by her hostility and behaviour.' [sic]

'Frightened': The Teen Mom star claimed she only threw the champagne glasses at Aisleyne, 36, to make her 'back off'

Accompanying the lengthy post was a picture which showed her bruised lower back - the cause of which she has not specified.

A spokesperson for her added: 'Her injuries, which affected her neck and back areas, included more than just the large bruise across her back and the police and lawyers have the medical report containing this information. Farrah is on very strong painkillers to help relieve the pain of her injuries.'

Farrah is considering legal action against fellow American Janice after she 'hurled a chair aggressively towards her with great force' in an attempt to protect Vicki Michelle who was caught in the line of fire of the champagne glasses, thrown by Farrah.

The mother-of-one went on to furiously defend her actions, insisting she in no way deliberately hit Vicki, claiming it was '100% an accident that she got caught in the cross-fire'.

She continued: 'It was apparent from the CBBBOTS footage that the glass was not aimed at Vicki or anyone else, I would never throw a glass directly at someone or deliberately want to cause them harm.

'I'm deeply sorry! I may speak my mind and come across as opinionated sometimes, but I would never want to harm anyone intentionally. I'm very upset that Vicki got caught up by accident as a result of what I did to try to defend myself against Aisleyne's assault and unacceptable behaviour.'

'Pre-mediated': Farrah claimed Aisleyne had planned the attack as she was 'hostile' towards her from the moment they first met

Wrong time, wrong place: Vicki was 'struck in the back of her head with great force with a glass', an ITV spokesperson said although Farrah denied it was deliberately aimed at her

Farrah's statement came two days after Vicki confirmed she would be pressing charges against her after she allegedly suffered from concussion and whiplash when she was hit in 'the back of her head with great force with a glass'.

However, she confirmed she was neither arrested nor convicted over the alleged incident, adding that she was confused 'as to how such a lightweight glass could be heavy enough to cause whiplash or concussion'.

Farrah finished by saying: 'I'm devastated things turned so sour as a result of Aisleyne's negative attack on me and that she has shown no remorse for her actions. As for Janice's assault on me, I'm deeply upset by it and had to cancel work as a result of my injuries and emotional distress, which is a great shame.

Apologetic: The American offered a heartfelt apology to Vicki and said she hadn't been arrested or convicted over the charges pressed by her earlier in the week

'On a more positive note, I'd like to say a big thank you to my fans for their continued love and support! You're the best!'

Farrah appeared to have made a full recovery as she attended a meet and greet with fans at an adult store in Soho, London, on Saturday.

She slipped on a strapless mini dress and a pair of custom-made printed heels as she appeared at the Brewer Street shop.
