Married At First Sight’s Domenica Calarco has been slammed for a ‘disrespectful’ act during her European holiday.
The reality television star-turned-influencer, 31, took to Instagram earlier this week to share a video of herself visiting the Vatican City.
Wearing a white dress and sandals, the former TV bride showed fans the incredible art on the walls and ceilings as she visited the Sistine Chapel.
But fans immediately called her out for using her phone to film footage inside the chapel, which has a policy of no photography.
‘Sorry Dom, this is super disrespectful, I don’t understand why you would have done this as such a proud Italian,’ wrote one fan.
‘When they say no filming but you do it anyway cause you know, you’re special,’ another sarcastic comment read.
‘It just shows self entitlement and that you think you’re better than everyone else who respects the rules,’ another said.
‘You are not meant to use your phone inside, it’s secret for a reason, I’m sure you were told but clearly ignored it,’ said one more.

Domenica then admitted she ‘hid her phone inside her bag’ but was told to stop filming by guards.
‘I spoke with the security guards after this and they said it’s because it clogs up the area and that’s why they say no photos. But okay,’ she explained.
The chapel includes famous images painted on the ceiling by legendary Renaissance artist Michelangelo.
The prohibition of photography and video has been in place in the Sistine Chapel for several decades.
