She wrote over the Instagram story: ‘Soooo many questions from everyone. I’ll have to film a story time and explain the full morning but right now I’m just happy to be on solid ground. 

‘Basically the waves were that bad the boat was almost capsizing and the drivers didn’t speak English. There were no life jackets. 

‘Baring in mind me and my sis are both fully qualified lifeguards. We were both fearing for our lives. Was meant to be a relaxing day.
