Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield – host of This Morning, equally appeared unimpressed. Specifically, Holly pointed out that travel regulations have always been clearly-stated and have nothing to do with mental wellness. ‘We speak about mental health on this program and how throughout all of this there’s an extraordinary number of people suffering from mental health.’
The 24-Year-Old who appeared live by the swimming pool said: ‘The main reason was my self, my mental health kind of thing
‘The rules on travel have nothing to do with mental health. It’s purely based on work, and that’s the only reason you can go, and there are other influencers, particularly fitness influencers who are managing to work from here in the UK, Joe Wicks is a good example.’ Holly explained.

Phil equally reacted, pointing out that most of her fitness clips were seen filmed inside her apartment in Dubai- which could have been done in the United Kingdom. ‘The reason I came out to Dubai was purely for business. I am a personal trainer, many gyms are closed, so basically, I took my online business to Dubai, and now I do things in my apartment.’ The 24-Year-Old who appeared live by the swimming pool defended Phil’s comment.

She added: ‘I used to do it in Britain, but no, I do it in Dubai, so it’s the same.’ Phil interrupted, saying most of the fitness stuff could have been filmed in her garage in Bolton, rather than having it done in Dubai. In response, Sheridan then claimed: ‘The main reason was my self, my mental health kind of thing.’ Sheridan explained she struggled during the 2nd lockdown despite numerous clients depending on her to bring them happiness and motivation.

As the 3rd lockdown surfaced, Sheridan claims her mental health suffered, and since she wasn’t going to start something new by just sitting in the house, the idea of traveling down to Dubai popped up, and she couldn’t be bothered. ‘With my struggles, I thought the way I am going to get out of this is to get on the plane for essential travel to Dubai.’ Sheridan insisted.
