SHE'S used to being criticised for her frequent holidaying.

But instead of getting slammed for taking her 22nd holiday in just 22 months, Sue Radford found herself shamed for an activity on her latest vacation.

The mum-of-22 left her brood at home to enjoy an anniversary break in Dubai with husband Noel, with the couple determined to fit in everything they could on the fleeting trip.

One activity saw Sue swimming with the horses, after she enjoyed a beachside ride with the stunning creature.

But it was the apparent acrobatic side of the excursion that raised eyebrows, and saw the matriarch slammed for causing the animal "pain".

Sue took to the family's Instagram page to share pictures and videos of herself riding the horse, as well as showing the moment she stood up on the horse's back while it was in the water.

While she has since removed the footage, Sue still found herself criticised for her actions, with one person writing: "Why would you stand on a horse's back?

"Surely painful for the poor horse?"

The 'swimming with horses' activity is offered by many hotels in Dubai, and enjoyed by many tourists during holidays there.

Sue and Noel also shared footage from their Dubai break on their YouTube page, showing some of the other activities they got up to – including a sand dune buggy trip.

They also rode camels – another activity that sparked controversy in the comments.

"Please don't support industries which involve animals," one wrote.

"Can almost guarantee they don't get a break, been abused and get no water."

"I don’t approve of using any animal for our entertainment," another added.

As a third said: "I'm a bit disappointed in you guys riding the camels.

"I thought you two would know better. so much cruelty and neglect behind all that.

"Those animals suffer so much just so tourists can have 'fun'."

And while many people in the comments section wished them a happy anniversary and thanked them for their vlogs, others were quick to criticise the amount of holidays they take.

"I've never seen a couple that go on as many holidays as they do," one raged.

As another wrote: "All we see is them on holiday.

"Yes, spend your money on what you want but I feel you have lost sight of what you started – sharing family life that so many could relate to

"Now it's all about holidays where you are going with or without your children. That is not real life for so so many people

"Glad you have this lifestyle whilst working so hard,but yet again you are away from your young children, and rely on your older children to look after them."

"How on earth do they afford these holidays?" a third asked.

"Three weeks in Florida, then dubai – pie making business must be good.

"And who's looking after the kids?

"Oh yeah, that's right the older kids!!"

However, others defended the family, with one writing: "Why are people so hateful?

"It’s just pure jealousy. You deserve it enjoy your time looks beautiful love watching your videos, you're so down to earth."

"Dubai looks absolutely amazing!!! Hope you both had a lovely time celebrating your anniversary!!" another said.

As a third commented: "Why do people knock the Radford family?
