Tamara Ecclestone revealed she’s been crying non-stop after saying goodbye to her sister Petra in Croatia.
The family had been staying on Bernie’s £28million yacht, but Petra, her fiancé Sam Palmer and her four children boarded a private jet on Tuesday to fly back to LA.
Sharing a selfie with Petra, 31, and daughter Sophia, six, on Instagram, Tamara voiced her worries about when they would be able to reunite again due to the pandemic.

Tamara wrote: ‘Puffy eyes from crying so much. So hard to say goodbye it’s always hard but this time especially so with the uncertainty of not knowing when we will see each other next and when we can get to LA.
‘So quiet with out you and the kids Fifi is so sad it breaks my heart. I keep telling her how lucky she is to have you and her cousins and to have spent this precious time together. We love you so much and cannot wait to be able to be together again I really hope soon. Missing my best friend.’
Sam, 31, took to Instagram to share a snap wearing a black face mask as he prepared to board a private jet alongside Petra and the children.

For the past month, Petra, 31, Sam, their daughter and her three other children Lavinia, seven, and twin boys James and Robert, both four have been spending time on her father Bernie’s £28million yacht, named Petara.
Petra shares her three other children with ex-husband James Stunt.

During their time abroad, Tamara shared several snaps of enjoying a dip in the sea and them exploring Croatia together.
However it has not all been plain sailing, as earlier this month, the star hit out at her critics after being slammed for taking her family to Croatia amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Tamara penned a lengthy caption reading: ‘Clearly this virus hasn’t changed some people for the better which is a bit of a shame. For those of you that are confused or just bitter. I didn’t leave the house at all during lockdown…

‘I didn’t even go to the park or exercise. I am half-Croatian so decided it would be best, safest to come here, which is not forbidden and I am now following the rules in Croatia. As for the home school questions, a return to school was option…
‘We chose to continue to home school Fifi she is doing better than ever and has gone up two reading bands. If I am not mistaken no one is obliged to follow me so you know what to do.’
Last month, Krunoslav Capak, the director of Croatia’s Institute of Public Health, said there would be ‘no bans, just precautions’ on the country’s beaches, after Croatia reported 107 deaths overall as of last week.
He said: ‘I will certainly go to the beach. I can’t wait. Lifeguards, local authorities and hoteliers will have to make sure that sun beds and towels are not too close together because the virus will still be present.’
The family have further happy news, as it was revealed that their father Bernie, 89, was expecting to be a father for a fourth time with his wife Fabiana Flosi, 44.
