Kate Ferdinand fans divided over holiday pictures of the kids
The mum has sparked a debate about parenting online
Kate Ferdinand has divided the internet over her latest holiday pictures of the kids.
The beloved TV personality and her former-footy player husband, Rio Ferdinand, recently came back from a sunny family beach trip abroad.
Kate took to Instagram to share the most memorable moments from the getaway - but it seems that one moment in particular is causing a bit of a storm online.

Kate uploaded a series of shots of her and her children to the social media platform yesterday (10 April).
She started the caption of the cute holiday snaps with: "Had some time out with the family & it was so needed.
"Precious memories made in a place we love. Feeling very grateful."
Kate concluded the caption writing: "P.s how we managed to keep Crees hand sand & water free I will never know, but our little solider still had the best time."
And it sure seems like they did with Kate sharing pics of beach sunsets, luxury lounge bars, crystal clear oceans and boat rides - just to name a few activities.
However, the third slide of the photo dump showed her two children playing on a balcony.
The short clip shows Kate's stepson Lorenz, 16, lifting his little brother Cree, two, up into the air beside the balcony railings.
Kate and Cree can be heard giggling throughout the video.
However, it seems like not everybody found the antics as funny as them.
One Instagram user commented: "Omg so [close] to the balcony banister...wth."
"My anxiety of how close to the balcony them lifts are," a second added.
Another went as far as to call the holiday clip 'scary to watch' while a fourth wrote: "That balcony video has got me ill."
A final, clearly outraged, Instagram user penned: "OMG WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT ON A BALCONY!!! F***ing hell money doesn’t buy common sense does it?"
Others, however, didn't see any issue with the playful joking around on the balcony.
One Instagram user jumped to Kate's defence commenting: "They were nowhere near. Just a funny camera angle."
"He’s clearly no where near," a second stated, "it’s just the angle, but it’s obvious he’s well clear!!"
A third sarcastically joked: "Beautiful photos Kate, but quick take down the video, can’t have the children acting normal and doing normal stuff having a laugh before healthy and safety police come for you."
What do you make of it?
