Gogglebox star slammed by fans as she REFUSES to sit in middle seat on a plane ‘because she’s a celebrity’
A GOGGLEBOX star has been slammed by fans after refusing to sit in a plane's middle seat because she's a 'celebrity'.
The former fan-favourite took to social media to share her displeasure at being allocated the middle seat.
Sandra Martin was travelling on a Ryanair flight when she discovered she would be sitting between two other passengers.
Posting to social media, Sandra shared a video from inside the plane's cabin as she stood in the aisle in protest.
She told fans: "There's no person there, I'm not showing your face and there's one person there and they want me to sit there.
"No, I'm a celebrity... I'm Sandra Gogglebox. I'm a celebrity... get me out of here!

"I cannot sit in that spot. No, I can't breathe, I'm gonna faint, I'm gonna fart."
Sandra told fans she was waiting until boarding was finished to see if there was a spare alternative seat.
In a kind gesture, her neighbour eventually agreed to swap places and Sandra took the aisle seat for the flight.
However, fans were left furious and flooded the Channel 4 star with comments, as one wrote: "Who told you that you're a celebrity?"
A second said: "Please book and pay for your seat instead of acting entitled."
"A celebrity? No you're embarrassing yourself," fumed a third.
While a fourth commented: "Flying with budget airlines and can't even click £10 for a seat change is crazy. But hey you're a celebrity right? Where's ya jet?"
Sandra previously told The Sun how she ended up back on benefits after leaving Gogglebox.
The TV personality previously claimed that, due to being “the star of the show”, she was paid more than anyone else to appear.
