Vick Hope hit back at critics when she was accused of flaunting her luxury lifestyle with a topless holiday snap.
The 34-year-old Radio 1 DJ posted a sizzling topless photo, which saw her saw her sipping on a smoothie by a palm tree on the beach. Wearing a skimpy thong bikini, she beamed for the camera and made sure she covered up her chest to avoid exposing too much.
Captioning the photo, she wrote: “Merry christmas happy new year.” But some viewers were frustrated by the pic as they believed Vick was showing off her wealth and lavish celebrity life in January, a time when many are forced to head back to work.

One fumed: “It’s nearly February, it’s freezing and no one has any money but thanks.” Vick replied: “Ok next time will post a pic of my grim commute home tonight from work in the storm to brighten up the timeline.”
Another complained: “We know u and Calvin have worked hard, but it’s almost February, the weather is c**p and we’d all love to get away for a bit of sunshine. “So thanks for flaunting your glamorous life when 95% of the country are struggling to pay some bills right now.”

Vick replied: “I’m not on holiday, I was at work today, have been all week, well aware that it’s bloody cold I’m freezing my tits off right now. It’s a throwback picture from a past holiday, not that deep.”
Some fans stuck up for Vick, who competed on Strictly in 2018. One wrote: “I can’t afford a holiday, but I’m not going to demand others who can stop sharing their photos; that’s just odd and entitled.”
