Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury's recent luxury motorhome holiday didn't quite go according to plan.
The 2019 Love Island couple, who recently reunited after a split last year, frequently enjoy getaways to destinations such as Dubai, offering a glimpse inside their expensive trips via social media posts.
However, this summer, they opted for a change of scenery, taking daughter Bambi to the Isle of Man for an £86,000 motorhome experience, having decided early on that she shouldn't get used to five-star stays and 'business class flights'.
But in her latest YouTube video, the Maebe founder, 26, admitted that staycations with a toddler can take their toll, saying she was left fighting a 'breakdown' at one point.
Speaking to her two million subscribers after returning home, Molly-Mae shared how travel delays and a change in routine led to tears and tantrums, with the two-year-old 'screaming for four hours straight' at one point.
On their decision to travel to the Isle of Man, where boxer Tommy splashed out £86,995 on an Elddis Avalon 255, the fashion influencer began: 'Tommy has bought a motorhome, and we spent our first weekend in the motorhome this weekend.
'Obviously, being us, we went in feet first and decided to go to the Isle of Man.
'Tommy's family were spending the weekend in the Isle of Man. I was feeling spontaneous, so we literally booked the ferry to the Isle of Man an hour before we needed to leave.
'We'd never used the motorhome before; we needed to pack it up, sort Bambi, I just had this wave of, 'You only live once, have a bit of fun.'
'Bambi doesn't need to be so perfectly routine every day; she's not a newborn anymore.
Molly-Mae added that she's become 'stuck in [her] ways' with Bambi's routine, fearing steering away from it and creating upset.
'I'm not gonna feel bad for that because that is what works for me and that is what works for Bambi and Tommy, so that's fine.'
And it was the change of pace that seemingly caused Bambi distress, as Molly-Mae detailed their journey: 'So anyway, booked the ferry, packed the motorhome up, and nearly didn't make the ferry, but that's another story, and then there was a two-hour delay.
'This ferry, which was already gonna get us in at 11:30pm, which was already severely triggering me because Bambi goes to bed at 7pm, was not fine. It was giving me a prime example as to why the routine works for us.
'It was one of those moments where strangers come up to you and are like 'Can I help? Is there anything I can do?'
'She was screaming that much for four hours straight.'
Molly-Mae explained that the delays were caused by a 'malfunction' on the boat, leading to Bambi becoming 'so, so, so tired and overstimulated'.
It was past 1am by the time the little family arrived at their destination, with the three staying at a different campsite from Tommy's family.
'We didn't know where we were, what we were doing … it was just a lot,' the reality star said.
'We had to make our bed out of this sofa. I was like, 'I'm really out of my depth; I'm struggling'.'
When they woke up the next day for their first full day in the Isle of Man, Bambi was 'screaming' constantly and clearly 'so, so unhappy'.
'Me and Tommy were looking at each other like, 'What were we thinking?' I was having a breakdown.'
Fortunately, they still managed to enjoy their trip, but not without Tommy deciding that one holiday in the flashy motorhome was more than enough.
'This motorhome of Tommy's is his pride and joy; he's obsessed with it,' said Molly-Mae. 'I kid you not, the next day he was like, 'I'm selling it, the minute we get home, I'm putting it up for sale. I hate this motorhome.'
The young parents also had every intention of travelling home after merely one night, feeling like they simply 'couldn't do it'.
'It wasn't even the motorhome's fault. For our first time, stupid move.'
Molly-Mae and Tommy confirmed in May that, after much speculation, they were, indeed, an item once more. More Trending
The lovebirds initially split when Tommy's drinking started to fracture their relationship, which Molly-Mae spoke openly about in her Amazon Prime Video series Behind It All.
But after Tommy ditched the booze for several months and they spent more time together again, she felt things were 'looking so much better'.
On wanting to 'take things slow' after getting back together, Molly-Mae told cameras: 'I love Tommy so much and I love our family so much that I'm willing to ride the wave.
'And that's not something that everyone wants to do, but it's something that I'm willing to do because I want my family.'
