SYDNEY -- Roxy Jacenko is an Australian socialite, businesswoman and reality TV contestant - and someone who is no stranger to controversial headlines or public cat fights.

In 2010, an ex-employee leaked a vile email to media organizations outlining her thoughts about working for the public relations' queen. This year, her two-year-old daughter was banned from Instagram, after it was revealed she had been charging brands $200 to advertise on the feed.

And now the 33-year-old blonde bombshell is at it again.

The Daily Telegraph reported Jacenko "has gone to town on Sarah Stavrow", who is head of Sydney fashion school "The Fashion Institute".

In a strongly-worded email sent to Stavrow after an event, the website claims Jacenko is fuming after discovering the other businesswoman had been gossiping to her staff behind her back.

“We don’t work with people who gossip and at the same time big note themselves about how my business is or isn’t run,” Jacenko reportedly told Stavrow in the email.

She then took it a step further - by bringing Stavrow's business budgets into the equation.

“I certainly don’t need your business nor budgets of a ‘hefty’ $2000.00 believe me! Really that wouldn’t even cover a service of my Bentley!!!” Jacenko snapped.

Stavrow, 28, tried to cool the exchange by responding: “It’s a shame that a conversation in which I said that you and I have different business structures and styles has been blown up.”

It seems these two socialites won't be attending any parties together in the near future.

Jacenko and Stavrow until this point have mixed in the same circles. They both started their separate businesses from scratch at just 24-years-old. Jacenko founded the fashion and lifestyle public relations agency Sweaty Betty PR, while Stavrow started up fashion school The Fashion Institute - with both start-ups ultimately growing into successful businesses.
