SHE is the queen of cryptic captions and now Lisa Armstrong has posted another comment that has showbiz internet sleuths scratching their heads.
The make-up guru and ex-wife of TV star Ant McPartlin, shared a comment on her reel which read: “Completely ruthless when pissed off,” accompanied by a trio of laughing emoji’s.
Last week the 47-year-old was pictured enjoying drinks on the town with some girlfriends, after it was revealed that she is set to fight for custody of the chocolate brown Labrador she shares with Britain's Got Talent presenter, Ant.
The former couple have shared ownership of the dog since their divorce in 2018, but Lisa has found Hurley a huge source of comfort this year, following the arrival of Ant’s first baby with his second wife, Anne Marie Corbett.

Last month, the couple announced the birth of their son, Wilder Patrick McPartlin in an Instagram post that also uncovered Ant’s tattoo tribute to his wife Anne-Marie, and her children from her previous relationship.
But Lisa, who has endured a private and long running battle with her fertility, is though to be at odds with the couple's happy tidings.
A source revealed to The Sun: "Lisa is really struggling with the news, she knew it was coming and had geared herself up for it but it still hit hard when she saw it.
"She felt very betrayed by both Ant and Anne-Marie and felt that none of this has been handled sensitively, especially the announcement of the baby. She’s really been through it all in the past seven years and sometimes she amazes herself how strong she’s been.”
But now that Ant has his longed for baby, Lisa now feels that she needs the emotional consolation of Hurley.
The source contines: "The one thing that has got her through it and been by her side constantly is Hurley – she doesn’t know what she would do without him. He’s more than just a dog to her and has been a lifeline at times."
But Ant who also loves the dog, is no pushover and has previously made it clear that he has no plans to renounce complete responsibility for the beloved pooch.
In the past he is thought to have said: "She can have anything she wants – except the dog.”
The source explained: "She really had to fight Ant for him, which she still is annoyed about as he got other dogs with Anne-Marie and now she would just like Hurley to live with her full-time.

"Ant obviously loves Hurley as well but he now has a lot of other responsibilities and things going on in his life and Lisa can’t see why she can’t have full custody of him.
Just hours after Ant announced his baby joy, Lisa, who is the chief make up artist on BBC Strictly Come Dancing, fled to Portugal to escape the media circus.
In the midst of her flight she posted a cryptic caption on social media, where she talked about fighting silent battles. She said: Last night Lisa posted a message on social media about facing "silent battles".
The quote she shared read: "Be proud about how you've been handling these past few months. "The silent battles you've fought, the moments you had to humble yourself, the times you've wiped your own tears.
"Celebrate your strength."
