British television presenter Kirstie Allsopp has sparked a controversial debate after revealing she flies in a different class to her children when travelling.
The Location, Location, Location presenter told The Sun newspaper that on occasions she and her partner do not sit with their children, who are primary school aged.
"When we fly as a family, the boys do fly separately from Ben and me if we're not in economy together," she said.
"Obviously this wasn't the case when they were little, but now they are big enough to sit separately, they do.
"We take a shed load of holidays and if they flew with me in Premium Economy or Club we'd be taking fewer holidays, less is more.
"I'm not in bloody First Class, half the time I'm with the kids, and the rest of the time in Premium Economy, about four rows in front.
"My kids aged 9 and 11 are quite capable of looking after themselves, and so they should be at this age, it would be pathetic if they weren't."
The frank admission sparked thousands of people on Twitter to join the debate on whether Ms Allsopp is being cruel or kind.
Earlier this year, Gordon Ramsay spoke out about why he insists his children sit in economy while he and his wife fly first class.
The TV chef also had to defend his decision, saying his kids haven't worked hard enough to earn luxury flying.
"I like to think about what you can do with the money when you land, rather than paying out thousands of dollars for eight, nine, 10-year-olds to sit in first class."
"I've never been really turned on about the money. That's not my number one objective, and that's reflected in the way the kids are brought up," he said.

"I absolutely loved this--it made me laugh and cry! Such a treat to read."―Katie Fforde, bestselling romantic novelist
[ex-lending library book, solid and reasonably clean with light shelfwear, slight bumping to top corners, several library stamps inside, plus a bookseller's label from the same shop (Helen Phillips Books, New Britain, Connecticut) on the rear pastedown; jacket is securely glued down at flaps, with heavy wear, creasing, several chips at edges of front panel, entire bottom half of spine missing]. "From the top of her carefully waved hair to the tips of her expensive French pumps, Mrs. Taylor is as representative of a certain class of American women as Sinclair Lewis's Babbitt is of a type of American business man. Her life is filled with the usual round of unimportant engagements, but following her husband's death she feels something is lacking, a feeling which even a trip to Paris and an orgy of shopping cannot quite dispel. This story covers a year in the life of Mrs. Taylor and shows what happens to such a woman on becoming a widow." Uncommon novel by this journalist/author, who turned out quite a few novels (almost all with female protagonists) in the 1920s and 1930s, and was a kind of minor Lost Generation expatriate, due in part to her relationship with the notorious occultist/journalist/traveller/alcoholic William Seabrook. (They were married from 1935 to 1941, and she ultimately wrote a book about him, twenty years after he committed suicide in 1945.). Bookseller Inventory # 15251
