She said: "We were at the airport and my dad turned up saying: ‘I’ve got this really lovely Louis Vuitton bag. It’s only a few years old'.
"Then it just snapped — all his clothes went everywhere. We had to go to a Louis Vuitton store and buy a real one.
"He got conned badly. It was really funny. He said: ‘You live and you learn. Never buy something like that off eBay’.”
The father and daughter duo were jetting off together on the trip to film a new travelogue series they are fronting for E4.

Dani ended up making a financial error of her own on the same trip when she was handed a €500 (£443) laundry bill.
She confessed: "I thought I’d been conned, but when I looked it was six euros per knicker and 20 for a t-shirt."
Danny Dyer recently waved farewell to Albert Square as his EastEnders character Mick Carter was killed off after nine years as a part of the show.
The star has dismissed the possibility of a surprise return in the future, brushing off comparisons to Leslie Grantham's Dirty Den, who returned 14 years after supposedly being shot dead.

He told The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan: "He [Grantham] was skint, he needed to come back. The geezer was on his a***. I don’t fancy it. I’ve done over 1,000 episodes."
Since leaving EastEnders, Dyer has been busy, landing a Netflix quiz show and the lead role in a Channel 5 action thriller filmed in Australia.
