Tradwife influencer Hannah Neeleman reminisced about her carefree life before children in her latest Instagram reel that shows her making gyros from scratch.
And in the minute-long clip, the mother-of-eight, 34, recalled one of her favorite trips — a Mediterranean holiday for two with her husband, JetBlue heir Daniel Neeleman.
'One of my very favorite trips that I've ever been on was a Mediterranean cruise that Daniel and I took when we were very first married,' she began. 'Still, to this day, we talk about the gyros we had.'
The caption to her nearly 10 million followers read: 'Homemade gyros with our ground beef and sourdough pita.'
Hannah recently defended her traditional farming lifestyle and marriage after a Times of London article scrutinized it.
Readers were in shock over the in-depth piece, which detailed moments of her husband speaking over her, and revealed she was left so exhausted from her hectic lifestyle that she was bedridden for days.
Fans took to social media to share their thoughts, with many declaring they must 'save her.'

Dressed in a patterned red frock and blue apron, the former ballerina narrated each step of her gyro-making process.
The post has collected more than 225,000 likes in less than 24 hours.
In a recent Instagram clip, Hannah addressed the Times article, admitting she and her husband — a 35-year-old JetBlue heir — were 'shocked' when they read it.
'A couple of weeks ago, we had a reporter come into our home to learn more about our family and business,' the beauty pageant competitor began.
'We thought the interview went really well. We were taken [aback], however, when we saw the printed article — which shocked us, and shocked the world by it being an attack on my family and my marriage,' she added.
She added that she was inaccurately portrayed as 'oppressed, with my husband being the culprit.'
'This couldn't be further from the truth,' she clarified, noting she believes the profile's angle was 'predetermined.'
'Together we have built a business from scratch,' she affirmed. 'We've brought eight children into this world, and have prioritized our marriage all along the way.'

Hannah was once an aspiring ballerina, moving to New York City at 17 to study at Juilliard. She met her now-spouse Daniel shortly after.
The couple — who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — often share glimpses of their idyllic life on social media, posting under the handle @BallerinaFarm, the name of their shared company.
They launched their brand, which sells an array of products made from their livestock including meat, desserts and produce, in 2019.
The homemaker has amassed millions of followers on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube from her 'trad wife' content, a term short for 'traditional wife.'
It refers to a woman who carries out conventional domestic duties like cooking, cleaning, and raising children.

At the end of her video, the blonde beauty assured viewers, 'We are co-parents, co-CEOs, co-diaper changers, kitchen cleaners and decision makers, we are one.'
'I love him more today than I did 13 years ago, many dreams still to accomplish,' she said before she revealed, 'We aren't done having babies.'
Hannah concluded the clip saying she's doing what she loves 'the most' — being a mother, wife, businesswoman and farmer.
In a follow-up Instagram post, Hannah urged people to read 'our story in my own words' via the Ballerina Farm website.
