Posting snaps from her first day in the sun on the beach, 33-year-old Stacey said: “It’s 10.30pm here in Abu Dhabi. All the children are sound asleep.

“So many of you have sent me the most beautiful messages, thank you.

“We had the best day and are so thankful to be gone.

“I’m looking through our pictures right now.

“This is Rose’s first experience of the sea.

“She was a little nervous but ended up loving it.”

“So many of you have suggested coming here and I’m so grateful you did – it’s like paradise.

“White sand, warm bright blue sea and here’s a little crab just walking sideways along the beach while I watched the kids in the sea.

“Rose found a starfish and her face says it all, it was the cutest little starfish.

“You just make my whole heart happy.

“I’ve never had so many inboxes. I promise I will share full details of where we are staying when we leave.

“It’s honestly the most beautiful place.

“Also, there are so many great places for kids in Abu Dhabi that we have tried to book what we think they will love the most, so I will be sharing these places with them as time goes on.

“But right now I can’t even explain how grateful I am just to be here and spending time with all the pickles.

“We didn’t deserve this any more than anyone else, so we feel so fortunate to be able to get away with it.

“I work so much with films off these guys and to be honest I just love giving them every second of me while we get the chance.

“I’m starting again in a couple of weeks, so I’m going to soak up every single second of them.

“I’ll catch up with you when I relive the day through the pictures in the evening.

“I just want to say thank you for every single lovely, kind message and wish us happy holidays.

“To the moon and back…always.”

The couple and their children looked incredibly excited as they posed for photos both before takeoff and after landing in the United Arab Emirates.

Stacey, 33, had previously mentioned her vacation on Instagram before teasing a shot of seven passes on Friday.

She told her followers, “How it started…”

The Loose Women star gave birth to her fifth child, Belle, in February.

Stacey wrote to her fans, sharing her relief at how well her children had behaved during the seven-hour flight.

She said: “Here We Go ✈️ On our very first adventure together… Rose & Belle’s first plane ride and ours as a family since Rex was a few months old.

“We are all so excited to create some special memories. I think I was most nervous about the trip there but we did it safe and sound and still sane 😂.”

Thanking fellow holidaymakers and airline staff, Stacey continued: “A big thank you to the lovely passengers who were so chatty and sweet to us and the kids and also to the friendliest flight attendants who were so kind to Rex & Rose played and they made me feel so comfortable.

“@etihad you have the most amazing staff and Captain Rexy can’t wait to fly us home.”
