The reality TV star posted the family snap on Instagram and was immediately criticized with a wave of scathing comments. 

‘All these A holes posing and showing off w their private jets in Miami, why don’t u offer help families and animals that can’t get out?’ model Joanna Krupa tweeted before someone replied: ‘@lisahochstein I think she’s talking about you….’

Another tweet read: ‘This is disgusting. I get evacuating. I don’t however understand their need to be vapid a**holes #LisaHochstein.

‘Talk about tone deaf… let me stop as we evacuate for a photo in front of our private jet.’

Hochstein hit back at the ‘nasty comments’, saying they weren’t the only ones on the private jet. 

‘Although it’s none of your damn business we were not the only ones in this plane. Every seat was occupied and my son had to sit in my lap,’ she wrote.

‘EVERYONE IS POSTING ON SM (social media) about how they escaped! This happens to be mine and I don’t need to apologize or hide to ANYONE ABOUT HOW WE DO SO. 

‘We also did not have paper work for our dogs to fly commercial as every vet was closed and every flight was booked and there is no way in hell we would leave them behind. Fortunately we were able to get a Plane to take them with us.’
