Celebrity comebacks kirstie allsopp
Kirstie Allsopp’s whinge at a family who dared give their child an iPad over breakfast prompted no end of A++ comebacks but this epic takedown was surely the winner
To the world now of Kirstie Allsopp, who took time out from looking for properties on Rightmove to troll a couple she happened to sit down next to at breakfast for giving their child an iPad while they tried to enjoy their meal.
I’m staying in a hotel in Switzerland, just had breakfast next to an English couple with one child, probably aged 5, he ate his breakfast watching an iPad on the table in front of him. I know this topic is a dangerous one but when are people gong to wake up to how wrong this is?

It prompted no end of very entertaining and entirely on-point comebacks – we’ve rounded up a whole bunch of them over here inluding this.

And this.
I was in a hotel in Switzerland and I saw this incredibly posh, entitled woman staring at a family with disgust as they were trying to eat their breakfast. pic.twitter.com/vQWTw8Yzap

But one stood out for the sheer detective work (and indeed memory power) involved. This one.
Probably to keep them quiet to not annoy others around them like that time you were annoyed by them on a train. https://t.co/dCzuEH5SRd pic.twitter.com/c2FUwikble

Bravo!
Just in case you don’t remember …
The temptation to offer my iPad, with numerous Scooby Doo episodes, to the family near me on the train is overwhelming.

Epic stuff!
I love how good people are at hating on this app. What do you mean you remember a Kirstie Allsopp tweet from 2013. Just sensational. pic.twitter.com/PN6xQHSt3W

We’re with this person.
That is fucking inspirational.

Although @putasinghonit was having none of it.
People not realising how a search function on an app is used in 2025 is wild. https://t.co/CTcDwWttis

Well yes, fair enough! Still a proper corker, that.
