The mum shared a clip of her and her kids enjoying the hot tub in their Essex mansion.
It was gifted by Lazy Spa UK in return for Billie to promote the product on her socials.
The former Towie star slipped into a black one piece swimsuit which she styled with a pair of glasses as she filmed herself enjoying the bubbles.
The clip then showed son Arthur and youngest daughter Margot splashing around and playing in the water.
She captioned the post: 'Happy Saturday, AD We love weekends at home when the suns out and are so glad we got the San Francisco hot tub from @layzspauk.
'It's been the perfect addition to our garden as it's perfect for keeping the kids entertained but also a great way for Greg and I to relax - the massage jets are brilliant and the seats are really comfy, perfect affordable luxury.'
The video sparked outrage from some followers who claimed the star promoted a product that does not have an 'affordable' price tag at £1,500.
One user said: 'Most people can't afford to heat their hot tubs any more.
'Pool not good enough for kids,' chimed another.
'Affordable. Promoting a free gift they got with their big swimming pool right next to it!' added a third.
Sam Faiers horrified at son Edward's 'damage' to home as she's heard yelling for sister Billie Faiers
'They don't realise how lucky they are! Why don't they gift it for free not like they need it. Wish it was affordable,' agreed a fourth.
It comes after Billie's husband Greg Shepard acquired even more wealth after treating himself to some property purchases, buying four in a row.
He snapped up a row of houses at auction and revealed his new purchase on social media back in February.
He shared a video proudly pointing out the four neighbouring homes as he revealed he's bought two four bedroom and two three bedroom homes.
Posting via business account Picture Residential, Greg showed off the new homes as he walked through and discussed the work and big plans for the row of properties.
The account shared the clip with the caption: "Here we have our latest purchase over in Croydon.
"4 properties, x2 4 beds and x2 3 beds.
"As you can see these properties are in need of complete renovation. We will be keeping the existing shell of all 4 properties and fully refurbishing the internals, front and back gardens.
"These homes will be totally un-recognisable when completed providing new, clean and habitable spaces. 3 properties will be sold and the 4th will be added to our portfolio."

I was on Love Is Blind UK and even got engaged on Netflix show - but here's why you'll NEVER see my romance on screens
A Love Is Blind UK star revealed that they got engaged on the popular Netflix show - however, viewers won't get the chance to witness their connection unfold on screen. The reality dating show returned last week with 15 men and 15 women entering the pods in a bid to find love and get engaged, all before meeting their match in person. Once engaged, the couples then jet off on romantic getaways together, live with one another, and even meet each others' loved ones. However, with so many connections forming, not everyone gets the chance to make it past the initial stages, even if they put a ring on it. During a Love Is Blind season, typically only up to five couples are followed past the early stages. And unfortunately for Ross Millington, 30, he was one of the unlucky ones who were halted from continuing the process. The reality dating show returned last week with 15 men and 15 women entering the pods in a bid to find love and get engaged, all before meeting their match in person After the first episode of the latest series aired, one fan on TikTok discussed Ross' brief appearance on the show. Ross was rarely seen in the pods; however, he was shown chatting with the other male contestants in the men's lounge as he went through the process. Ross, who owned a barber shop at the time the series was being filmed, jumped in on one fan's TikTok video - where they were asking more about him - to clear up why he only appeared on the show briefly. As she pointed him out, Ross noted: 'That was me, I didn't make it to Greece unfortunately. Reveal went well though.' Ross chose not to elaborate any further, but it is safe to assume he got engaged to his match as they made it through to the reveal stage. The comment was later posted on Reddit, and fans of the Netflix show shared their thoughts on producers not airing Ross's connection on TV. One joked: 'Good thing he didn't make it to Greece, as they went to Cyprus.'; 'I counted 2 guys and 2 gals during the "I'm engaged" scenes that had zero screen time.'; And unfortunately for Ross, he was one of the unlucky ones who were halted from continuing the process, as he revealed that he didn't make it to Greece, but his reveal 'went well' 'They are still around during those moments, and I would assume they may have ended up as a couple but were not picked to go to Cyprus.' 'Makes you wonder if their connection was boring/lack of drama to not be picked over Javen and Katisha...' 'I've never understood why they pick some and not the others and then don't edit it down more in post production if necessary.'

Kneecap rapper faces month-long wait over whether terror charge is thrown out
A member of rap trio Kneecap faces a month-long wait to find out whether his terrorism charge will be thrown out. Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, was once again greeted by hundreds of fans as he arrived at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday for a three-hour hearing. Advertisement Prosecutors allege the 27-year-old displayed a flag in support of proscribed terror organisation Hezbollah at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London, in November last year. During Wednesday's hearing, his defence team argued the case should be thrown out, citing a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought. Brenda Campbell KC told the court the Attorney General had not given permission for the case to be brought against the defendant when police informed him he was to face a terror charge on May 21st. She said consent was given the following day, but that meant the charge falls outside of the six-month time frame in which criminal charges against a defendant can be brought. Advertisement Prosecutor Michael Bisgrove said permission was not required until the defendant's first court appearance and that permission did not need to be sought in order to bring a criminal charge. Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring adjourned the case until September 26th, when he will rule on whether he has the jurisdiction to try the case. Kneecap's Liam Og O hAnnaidh leaves Westminster Magistrates' Court (Jordan Pettitt/PA) Hundreds of Kneecap supporters waving flags and holding banners greeted O hAnnaidh as he arrived at court alongside fellow bandmates Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh. Demonstrations in support of the rapper were organised outside the court building in London, as well as in Dublin. Advertisement The Metropolitan Police imposed conditions limiting where the demonstration outside the court could take place, saying they were needed to 'prevent serious disruption'. A man was detained by police outside the court building because of a placard he was holding following the hearing. Surrounded by officers, he told reporters his hand-made sign made no reference to any proscribed organisations. O hAnnaidh was swamped by photographers as he arrived, with security officers taking more than a minute to usher him into the court building. Advertisement Supporters of Kneecap's Liam Og O hAnnaidh outside Westminster Magistrates' Court (Ben Whitley/PA) Supporters greeted the Kneecap rapper with cheers as he made his way from a silver people carrier to the building. Fans held signs which read 'Free Mo Chara' while others waved Palestine and Irish flags before the rapper's arrival at court. Chants of 'Free, free, Mo Chara' could also be heard over a megaphone, which was repeated by the crowd. Mr O Caireallain and Mr O Dochartaigh sat at the back of the courtroom with three others as O hAnnaidh confirmed his name, date of birth and address to the court at the start of the hearing. Advertisement In response to the Met imposing conditions on the protest, Kneecap described the move as a 'calculated political decision' that was 'designed to try and portray support for Kneecap as somehow troublesome'. Supporters of Kneecap's Liam Og O hAnnaidh gathered outside the court (Jordan Pettitt/PA) The court previously heard the 27-year-old defendant is 'well within his rights' to voice his opinions on the Israel-Palestine conflict, but the alleged incident at the O2 Forum was a 'wholly different thing'. O hAnnaidh, of Belfast, is yet to enter a plea to the charge and is on unconditional bail.

Princess Andre's fears for her mother Katie Price as glamour model's legs look so thin they could 'snap' - as she she rips the stitches out of her new facelift
Princess Andre has admitted she fears her mother Katie Price 's legs 'might snap' as she expressed concern for the star's thin frame. The former glamour model, 47, has sparked concerns among fans over her rapid weight loss in recent months, revealing she weighed just 7st 12lb back in June. Katie and Princess have been spending time together after the 18-year-old's reality show was said to have caused a rift between them. In a video uploaded to Katie's snapchat, the star can be seen walking across a tightrope in a local park. Her incredibly thin frame was noticeable in the clip as she sported a pair of white shorts and a black T-shirt. The former glamour model, 47, has sparked concerns among fans over her rapid weight loss in recent months, revealing she weighed just 7st 12lb back in June Princess, who was behind the camera, said: 'Your legs might snap mum!' Katie wrote over the clip: 'What Princess said about my legs.' The TV personality previously admitted her parents have shared their concern that she might have an eating disorder - which she denied. Speaking on Katie's podcast The Katie Price Show, her sister Sophie told Katie their mother Amy had called her to share her worries over her continuing weight loss. Sophie said: 'Mum called me the other day and said I'm going to have a word with Kate because she's too thin. I think mum saw a picture on Instagram and she wasn't happy.' However, Katie replied: 'My legs do look thin, but I like it,' putting an end to the conversation. Meanwhile, Katie took to her Instagram on Wednesday and revealed she pulled stitches out of her face after getting another face lift in Turkey. The star filmed herself in her car and told how she had 'ripped' a stitch out above her lip and also tried to remove another around her eye. In the clip, she said: 'Good morning. I went to take a stitch out myself last night and I sort of ripped it across there and it's so sore. And then I tried to get one out there, so sore.' It comes after Princess hit back at claims she was embroiled in a family feud with her mother. Just days before the launch of the TikTok star's new ITV2 show, The Princess Diaries, the former glamour model said she was 'upset' after alleging she was banned from filming scenes for the series, which follows a string of recent events, including her daughter's 18th birthday party, where Katie says she was also not welcome. But speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Princess explained any fallout from Katie's outburst at not being involved in her TV debut will be dealt with behind closed doors, as she insisted: 'It's my show, it's not based on my parents, it's focused on me. To be honest there's no rift between me and either of my parents.' Viewers will see Princess celebrate turning 18 on her show and although Katie wasn't at the party, thrown by her father, singer Peter Andre, 52, the teen stands firm that her mother was never banned from attending. She said: 'What I would usually do, as I've done my whole life, would be to spend the morning with one parent and the evening with the other. 'As it happened, mum ended up being away, and dad had already decided to throw me a last minute birthday party, which we filmed for the show. 'But anyhow, it would be weird if both parents were in the same room, as I'm sure a lot of people out there with divorced parents can relate to.' Katie expressed her frustrations at being 'disrespected' and 'disregarded', saying she longed to be by her daughter's side as she follows in the footsteps of her famous reality TV parents and bids to take over their crown. Meanwhile, Princess also weighed in on why she doesn't get involved in her father Peter and mother Katie Price's public feud following their bitter split 16 years ago. The influencer admitted it is 'not worth' weighing in on their rows. Tensions hit fever pitch recently when Peter, 52, released a statement branding his ex-wife a liar after years of 'staying silent' for the sake of their children. In response to Katie's claims that they have 'always shared the kids', Peter insisted that they moved in with him in 2018 'for their safety' as he accused her of falsehoods. However, despite their back and forth, Princess has revealed she won't be having her own say to either parent because she doesn't believe it will do any good. When asked whether she would contact her mum to discuss it, Princess told the Guardian: 'No, she says, it's not worth it. Mum can be annoyed about something and then we send each other a message and we're fine.' When asked if it isn't easy having parents, Princess said: 'No. Especially divorced parents.' During the same interview, Princess also sweetly claimed she didn't want to paint her mother in a bad light because she is 'more stable' than she has been in years. Princess said: 'This is going to come across really bad, isn't it?' she asks. 'Like, it's talking about how Mum's a mess and Dad is stable, d'you know what I mean?' 'Right now, Mum is completely different to how she was four years ago. If we're talking about the past, yes, my dad was more stable and Mum is naturally more crazy than my dad.'
