The soap star, 38, recalled the incident during a trip to St Lucia with fiancé Ollie Piotrowski and their son Forest, who was around 18 months old at the time. Speaking about the altercation, Jorgie claimed another passenger took issue with the toddler being seated in business class. She said: "A lady kicked off. There was a physical fight with her husband and my man." Jorgie went on to explain that despite the confrontation, her son was well behaved throughout the journey. Speaking to The Sun, she added: "It ended up being that she was the worst passenger and actually my child – who was one and a half at the time – being the best, sleeping the whole way through to St. Lucia, a fantastic passenger, and all the people on the plane commended us, actually." The actress clarified that Ollie did not retaliate during the incident, explaining that the other passenger had been the one trying to provoke a confrontation. The family later went on to enjoy their holiday in St Lucia following the event. Jorgie, who shares son Forest and daughter Peony with Ollie, also opened up about parenting while attending this week's TRIC Awards in London. She revealed she has chosen not to give her children iPads to keep them entertained when eating out, despite admitting it can make restaurant trips more chaotic. She said: "I'm very proud and privileged to say that I don't give my kids an iPad." While stressing she does not judge parents who make a different choice, Jorgie admitted she embraces the unpredictable nature of dining out with young children. She explained that she doesn't mind "running around a restaurant with screaming kids", adding that she wants to enjoy those moments while her children are still young. The actress also praised Ollie for being a supportive partner, explaining that they encourage one another's careers and celebrate each other's achievements while raising their young family together.
