Styling her blonde tresses into loose waves, Joanna completed her outfit with a red handbag. 

Joanna and Georgia returned to the UK from the Maldives back in February. 

The pair had been busy documenting their lavish getaways with pals including Francesca Allen and Hayley Hughes in a series of snaps, while most of the UK was ordered to stay at home.

Travel abroad is still banned from the UK without a legally permitted reason.

And Home Secretary Priti Patel criticised those who had been holidaying in the sun when they have been told to stay at home.

Members of the public took umbrage with influencers’ tone deaf posts from warmer climates like the Maldives and Dubai – now dubbed ‘Covid Cosablanca.’

Hostile messages on Instagram and Twitter pages are accused them of recklessly spreading the virus and putting the NHS under increasing strain.

Many claim they jetted off for ‘unavoidable work trips’ – with some even going so far as to suggest that their social media posts should make them ‘key workers’.
