a series of snaps from her festive trip in December after receiving criticism from her followers. Some fans said they were 'disappointed' by Abbey after she posted a collection of photos with her husband Peter Crouch, their four children and friends while much of the UK was in Tier 4 lockdown.
Abbey gushed over how 'lucky' she was to have had a 'wonderful Christmas' as she shared glimpses of the family's trip and revealed they stayed at a five-star hotel, Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort and Spa, during their Dubai holiday.
MailOnline understands the family flew to the UAE on December 14, before Tier 4 travel rules came into force, and returned to the UK on December 26.
