Sam Faiers revealed her seven-year-old son was forced to wee in a bottle when flight attendants didn't allow them to use the toilet.
The 32-year-old shares three children with her partner Paul Knightley - little Paul, Rosie, five, and Edward, 11 months.
She opened up about the realities of travelling with children during an episode of her and her sister Billie's podcast, The Sam & Billie Show.
While returning home from holiday, she revealed her son Paul suddenly had to use the toilet after waiting for the plane to take off for 1.5 hours.
"Little Paul goes, I need to go to the toilet. And we're like, 'we've just sat here for an hour and a half, you know, and now you need to go to the toilet'," she said.
"So all the lights come on and the ladies are walking up and down and we were like 'oh, sorry, could our son go to the toilet, my son really needs to go to the toilet quickly.' They said, 'No, we're talking off.'
"We sat for another 20 minutes without taking off but everyone was belted up and ready to go. You can imagine now, Little Paul is crying so now we feel terrible. He's a child, you can't really tell a child to hold a toilet."
When he started crying, Sam got up to take her toddler to the bathroom but was told by a flight attendant to sit down.
As a last resort, little Paul had to wee in a "big drinking water bottle".
"I was like he's gonna have to go into a bottle. I was like it's a seven-year-old. You can't let him sit there and wet himself like that's terrible and like bad is that for him?" she continued.
"Like that would be really traumatic. He's very independent. He's not gonna sit there and wet his pants so that was a whole drama."
Last month, her sister Billie also complained about an issue she had on a flight from the Maldives.
Asked about what it was like taking a young baby on long-haul flights during an episode of their podcast, Billie revealed it was ‘intense’.
And she blasted plane companies for not having enough bassinets for babies onboard – saying she had to hold Margot in her arms for 12 hours when the only one on the plane broke.
