Sue and Noel Radford have revealed they are jetting abroad for their sixth holiday in six months before fans slammed them for being ‘tone deaf’ and having ‘too much money’.
The 22 Kids And Counting stars sent their fans into a frenzy earlier this week when they complained after their trip to Dubai got cancelled.
But just days after, Sue, 50, and Noel, 55, have now revealed that they had quickly switched destinations and had flown to the Canary Islands.
Alongside an airport snap shared on Facebook and Instagram, the TV couple wrote: ‘Couple of nights away.’
The image, which had EasyJet planes in the background, showed a glass of bubbly and a beer.
While many speculated where the couple were heading, Sue and Noel didn’t reveal their travel destination or discuss any plans until a later post, which showed a variety of tropical plants.

Sue and Noel have now revealed that they had quickly switched destinations and had flown to the Canary Islands. Alongside an airport snap, the couple wrote: ‘Couple of nights away.’
Instead, they questioned: ‘Where will we end up?’
Social media users were left unhappy by the post and some accused the pair of having ‘too much cash.’
One person said: ‘Never at home lol’; ‘They’re always going away, too much cash’; ‘Who gives a s**t’; ‘On yet another holiday.’
Sue was blasted for a ‘tone deaf’ rant about her holiday to Dubai being cancelled earlier this week, as conflict in the Middle East continues.
She sparked outrage as she took to Instagram to share her grievances, revealing that her daughter and son had given her and her husband, Noel, a weekend away to the popular UAE city, and they were planning to fly on Wednesday.
However, this has been disrupted – as Israel and Iran continue to launch new strikes, leaving foreign nationals scrambling to evacuate the war zones.
‘Anyway hands up who’s been having a nightmare with travelup1 because I think there’s going to be lots of you,’ she wrote.
‘Phone line’s dead so guessing they have turned them off and no response from them to emails I have commented on their Insta page but all of our comments have been deleted… and there been lots from very unhappy customers.’

Sue, who says she has since heard back from the travel company, admitted that ‘she knows we are safe in this country but even if you wanted to rebook you can’t because they aren’t dealing with it’.
She stressed that ‘the point of this post is that we do not want to rebook I would imagine lots wouldn’t but this company switching phones off is not the way to go about it’.
However, commenters were still unhappy by the post, as ‘people are dying’.
‘Others are hiding in hotel rooms/basements,’ one continued. ‘And the rest are stranded with many fearing for their lives. Your holiday dues not matter right now.
‘Your refund/swap is not the priority. You should have travel insurance and be Atol/Abta protected – you’ll get your money. For now just sit tight and be.’
‘Maybe think of the people living out there right now’; ‘All you can think about is holidays when there is a war on? Unbelievable.’
‘How insensitive to those who are currently fearing for their lives. People have died, a war is going on and you’re moaning because you can’t book a holiday to Dubai??’
‘Hmm very egocentric post this one is. Think off all the stranded people over there. Pfft!’
In the past year alone, Sue and her family enjoyed at least eight holidays to Lapland, Italy, the Caribbean, Florida, Paris – and indeed, Dubai.
