Former Soccer Star And Wife Thought They Got 'Best Seats' On Plane—But They Were So Wrong

Former Real Madrid player Sergio Carrallo and his 'Real Housewives of Dubai' star wife Caroline Stanbury thought they were getting the 'best seats' on a flight, only to realize their seats didn't go back—and they were facing the rest of the passengers.

We've all heard that money talks, but sometimes even with money and fame, a person can still receive the short end of the stick.

Former Real Madrid soccer player, Sergio Carrallo, and his wife, Real Housewives of Dubai star Caroline Stanbury, went on a lengthy winter vacation, and in the midst of their planning they had their assistant book a flight with the promise that they were getting the "best seats on the plane."


But in a 10-second video, Carrallo revealed that the famous pair were actually sitting in arguably the worst seats on the plane.

At the start of the video, Carrallo and Stanbury appeared comfortable enough, despite having seats that didn't lean back.

"We got the best seats in the plane. Nothing goes back.”

But there was a catch, which Carrallo showed by flipping the camera around to reveal the rest of the passengers facing them and waving at them. Immediately behind them was a cargo closet.

So we’re facing the cabin, basically.”

As if a famous couple wouldn't already receive enough attention in their travels, now they were face-to-face with all of their fellow passengers on the plane.

Fellow TikTokers were appalled that these seats even existed.

Fortunately, later on the trip, Carrallo's assistant was able to book them much better seats.

"Finally, facing the right way!"

Finally, facing the right way 😅

Some TikTokers didn't think the seats should be such a big issue to blast on social media.

It was clear that some of the TikTok community was not supportive of the celebrity trip or the trouble they had in their travel planning.

As negative as some of these TikTokers were, however, we've surely all had awkward or disappointing experiences while traveling, and it seems we don't become immune to that just by having more money at our disposal.

But there are some mistakes that can happen during a trip that could ruin the entire experience. At least this couple was able to move on and live it up!

Dr. Oz Slammed After His 'Credit Card' Health Care Analogy Goes Completely Off The Rails

Snake oil salesman Dr. Mehmet Oz—now the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services—was criticized after he tried to discuss U.S. health insurance providers' pledge to speed up the prior authorization process by oddly comparing it to a "credit card," underscoring just how much he doesn't understand the job he currently holds.

Earlier this week, major U.S. health insurers—including Cigna, Aetna, Humana, and UnitedHealthcare—announced a set of reforms aimed at simplifying the often frustrating prior authorization process for patients and providers.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
