Celebrities and influencers have come under fire in recent weeks over their lavish trips to Dubai during the pandemic.
Former Coronation Street star Kym Marsh herself has hit out at her fellow celebs, slamming the hoards of social media influencers who jetted out to luxury destinations like Dubai amid the pandemic.
The 44-year-old said she was concerned that jetsetters are hardly practising social distancing on their sunny holidays and risk bringing Covid-19 back into the UK.
