Emily then sent him another voice note followed by a message reading: ‘How do I get my f*****g tele to work’ to which Seann replied: ‘Shove it up your a**e’.
The Celebrity Juice star jokingly captioned the post: ‘Cheers pal @SeannWalsh’.
Ensuring there was no suggestion of romance, Emily also played Dionne Warwick’s song That’s What Friends Are For over the post.
Emily recently split from boyfriend Jude after struggling to see him due to her hectic work commitments.

The couple were last pictured at the end of July attending The Ivy Asia launch in Chelsea and, last month, Emily shared a loved-up picture with Jude at her sister’s wedding.
But a friend of Emily’s told The Sun: ‘Emily and Jude were a great match and had a lot of fun, but it ended up being too tricky to make it work long term, they have barely managed to see each other recently so made the decision to call it quits.
‘Emily has so much going on at the moment too and that made their relationship a little more difficult.
‘She has just finished filming the second series of her one woman TV show and that takes a lot out of her. Plus she’s started to move house now and it is a lot to juggle.’

Emily’s pal added while the pair are ‘pretty upset’ about the split, ‘both knew it was over’.
Emily’s representatives declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline.
It comes after Emily and Seann were seen enjoying a friendly catch up at a Nando’s in Clapham late last month.
It appeared to be a working lunch for the duo, as MailOnline understands that Seann is working as one of the writers on Emily’s show – The Emily Atack show.
An insider said: ‘Seann is part of the writing team helping with some of the stand up elements on the latest series of the Emily Atack show which is currently in production.’

It was claimed in October 2018 that Seann and Emily enjoyed a ‘string of dates’ after clicking at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2016.
British comedian Seann – who came under fire for kissing his Strictly co-star Katya Jones – was dating ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries at the time.
Emily was said to be keen to put the ‘whole dalliance behind her’ after an intimate snap of the two of them in bed together surfaced online.
An insider told the Sun at the time: ‘Emily is mortified that this picture has appeared. She had wanted to put the whole dalliance behind her and is keen to forget about it.’
The source went on to explain the I’m A Celebrity star now ‘regrets ever using her camera in the bedroom’ after the ‘personal image’ was leaked.

‘At the time, she and Seann were totally wrapped up in each other. But she’s over it now,’ the insider added.
Representatives for Emily and Seann were contacted for comment at the time.
The pair became ‘totally wrapped up in each other’ and enjoyed ‘secret liaisons at pubs and hotels’ at the time of their rumoured fling, sources said last year.
Emily reportedly told friends she was ‘in love with Seann’, who she first met on E4 show Virtually Famous in 2014 before reconnecting in Edinburgh where their ‘friendship took off’.
‘That is where they properly clicked,’ a source told the Sun. ‘She liked the fact that he was a little bit older and more experienced than her, so seemed like a man of the world.’

Sources added that Seann was ‘extremely evasive’ when asked about his relationships and ‘Emily was under the impression he was single’.
The pair were also linked following Seann’s kiss with Katya, when pictures emerged of the star putting on a cosy display with actress Emily in a pub in London.
Seann and Emily were pictured flirting and holding hands while enjoying a drink in December 2016 – four months after their Edinburgh trip.
A source told MailOnline: ‘I was in a pub in central London and saw him flirting with Emily. I knew he had a girlfriend so thought it was a bit out of order as they were getting very close.’
