Billie, 24, dumped Amadu Sowe in December so she could date Laurence - but her new lover's posh parents aren't impressed with her colourful background.
A source told Britain's Closer magazine: "Billie's devastated. She really has fallen for Laurence and his family's approval meant everything to her.
"But they're not happy with his new choice of girlfriend and would prefer someone more conservative."
Laurence's parents - James and Mary Fox - were disappointed their privately educated son ended his six-year relationship with actress Martha Swann and began dating Billie a few weeks later.
The source added: "Laurence has assured Billie he'll change his parents' opinion of her and that everything will be fine."
Billie married DJ Chris Evans in Las Vegas when she was just 18 and admitted they spent most of their brief relationship drinking and partying.
The former 'Doctor Who' star recently revealed she battled anorexia and experimented with drugs in the past.
