Rochelle Humes has said that she was "close to bursting into tears" after her baby son was told to "shut up" while on a plane.
The This Morning presenter and her co-host Vernon Kay were discussing the topic of adult-only flights on the ITV daytime show. The mum-of-three shared her own experience of flying with kids.
Rochelle shares three young children with her husband Marvin Humes, her daughters Alaia-Mai, nine, and Valentina, five, and 22-month-old son Blake. It was her youngest child, Blake, who was told to shut up as he was suffering with teething and making a fuss.

The singer said that before having her own kids she was "in the camp" for child-free flights but kids onboard never made too much of a difference to her. She said: "It didn't really bother me, I'd have my headphones in, I'd watch a film, I'd get my head down. If I heard it, it's someone else's problem right?"
However, since having her own children she had experienced other people reacting negatively to her children being on the flight. She said: "Since having a little one, my two girls are very good fliers but my son not so much.
"I had a flight where a guy sort of said something to me like, 'aren't you going to shut him up?'. I was that close to bursting into tears because I feel for the parents."
Rochelle added she choked up at the time as she told the passenger she was "really trying" to stop her son from crying. She added: "There is nothing worse… I didn't even know my child, he was teething and I was like, 'I don't even know how to settle him myself'."
