In the pic, Sam is pictured with partner Paul Knightley, their two children Paul, three, and one-year-old daughter Rosie, and their friends and their two children.

Sam captioned the image: “Having the best holiday with our beautiful babies #4under4.”

Instantly, the snap attracted the attention of many of her 2.3million followers, with Paul’s appearance in a buggy splitting opinion.

“Surely Paul’s old enough to walk??” one asked.

Another questioned: “Isn’t Paul too big for a pram? He looks huge,” while a third replied: “Omg is he in a buggy.”

But it wasn’t all negative comments.

“Your followers are very concerned about Paul being in a pushchair, god forbid the poor child might want to fall asleep when out for dinner,” one argued.

Another said: “I’d quite happily squeeze into that pram so I can have a nap at dinner. I’m sure Paul is pretty chuffed he can get to bed on time!”

“Ah enjoy and I’d Paul wants to be in a pram that’s fine ignore comments. We put my first in a pram when my son was just a year old and she just turned four on holiday. I feel whatever you do someone will give you a hard time,” another said.

Sam also shared an image of Paul in a pushchair only days ago, as the family prepared to jet off to Majorca.

The snap also provoked many followers to leave their opinions.
