Jack was asked about the row in an interview with The Times, only to admit: 'Do you know what? Genuinely, I think my biggest surprise is that it's taken this long for someone to write a song or a diss track about me.'

'I've made so many jokes about so many people.' He added that he apologised to Becky when they ran into each other at a recent F1 race and says 'we had a laugh about it. And I was like, "I'm sorry." And we had a chuckle about it.'

Despite an apology, Becky has said she resented being called out by 'some privately educated nepo baby who has a TV show with daddy the showbiz agent''.

Her lyrics refer to Jack's upbringing, including the lines: 'Just 'cause your daddy worked in showbiz, got you a job with his old boss. I bet you didn't even notice. The opportunities you got.'

'You judge me on my accent before I even start, but you know nothing about me. What can I do? I'll never be like you'.
