Vogue Williams blasts troll as she defends airplane story as 'joke that didn't land'

Vogue Williams has defended herself from criticism after claiming that a story she told on a podcast about how she demanded a man switch seats with her was 'a joke'

The 37-year-old from Howth explained recently how a male passenger on a plane refused to swap seats with her - despite her failing to book a seat in advance, which he had done.

Having initially told the story on her podcast, Vogue was blasted by the majority of people who heard the story, causing her to respond in the last couple of days.

Hitting back at trolls who called her son 'ugly', she wrote: "Enough of this. I would never expect or demand anyone swaps a seat with me. It was a joke that definitely didn’t land."

The original story got a heap of reaction online with the majority of people pointing out that Vogue was in the wrong for not booking the seats correctly.

She explained she booked daughter Gigi in the window seat, herself in the middle and son Theodore in the aisle in a set of three seats.

But she had failed to book her husband Spencer beside them.

Speaking on her podcast she said: "I was sitting in an aisle of three and I had booked the wrong seat on the other aisle, and that was my mistake.

"Spenny was like, 'Would you mind doing window instead of aisle so we can be all together?' and he's like 'Yes Spencer, I would mind.'

"When he realised he was being an absolute t**t, he looked at me with a new born baby and the two kids beside me, he was like 'Okay, fine, fine I'll do it.'

"Literally, the air hostess came down and I was like, 'Have you got another aisle seat for this f***ing particular piece of s***e over here?' He was awful."

Spencer then added: "He was rubbish."
