Former TOWIE star Mark Wright has been forced to issue an apology over a 'poor taste' post he made after a deadly plane crash. At least 260 people were killed after an Air India flight to Gatwick, which was carrying 242 passengers, crashed just moments after takeoff in the northwestern Indian state of Gujarat on Thursday. That same day, the 38-year-old reality star shared a snap of himself with his wife Michelle Keegan and their daughter posing in front of a private jet.

Pic: Ash Knotek/REX/Shutterstock for NTA '1 day babe, for now we'll take row 26 with no extra leg room,' Mark captioned the snap, sparking controversy among his followers. While the star quickly removed the post, the Mail Online reports a number of fans took to the comments to share their dismay at the poor timing. One seemingly claimed it was 'not appropriate', with another writing: 'Prob not the best day to post this when so many people lost their lives on a plane.' That same day, the 38-year-old reality star shared a snap of himself with his wife Michelle Keegan and their daughter posing in front of a private jet.

'I have posts from a holiday that are on the scheduled setting, which go out on future days I have set them for which was done last week.

My heart goes out to everyone who has been affected from today. I'm sorry for this mistake and any offence caused.' Mark isn't the only one being forced to apologise, with McFly band member Tom Fletcher also issuing an apology following a similar post.
