REALITY TV star Vicky Pattison signed books for fans in Colchester.

The Geordie Shore star arrived more than an hour late after getting stuck in traffic on the way from an appearance on Loose Women in London.

She eventually signed copies of her book and posed for pictures with fans.

Fans queued outside WH Smith in Lion Walk ready for the scheduled meet and greet at 4pm.

She tweeted to keep her fans updated saying, "Arg! Racing to WHSmith Colchester to see you gorgeous lot for my third The Real Me book signing! So sorry I'm running late.

"Terrible accidents on the roads en route to you gorgeous guys. Feel terrible, but I promise I am coming and so sorry."

When Vicky arrived, she took to Instagram to post a video of her meeting an excited four-legged fan.
