The pair appeared to be sitting on a plane, and while Gennaro sported a stylish hat, dad-of-five Jamie's hair was styled in long spikes, which he accompanied with a bemused expression.

The 45-year-old captioned the hilarious image: "I’ve lost @gennarocontaldo where has he gone?! If you’ve seen him please send back to me I have porchini and pasta to make jo xx."
