Former Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison has described how she was denied boarding a flight from Newcastle after gate staff noticed damage to her passport.

Pattison, 36, was boarding an easyJet flight to Italy to visit her wedding venue with fiancé Ercan Ramadan, ahead of the pair getting married in September.

However, she was left disappointed after airline staff noticed the damage to her passport, which was apparently caused by her dog chewing it.

Pattison took to Instagram after the incident, writing that she “thought we were off to see our wedding venue today, we were so excited”.

“Only to have the @easyiet staff turn me away.. I’ve been travelling with my passport all year and no one’s said anything, but it’s definitely well travelled to be fair. Company policy is company policy and I get it, I’m just beyond gutted you know?”

Pattison later shared a photo of the damage to her passport, which consisted of some small holes and tears on the photo and information page.
