A gorgeous personal trainer was reduced to tears after a pair of Angolan air stewards announced she was so beautiful that her husband should agree to share her.

Taissa Batista Tucci, 30, was flying home to Brazil on a TAAG Airlines flight - the national flag carrier of Angola - when the incident happened in the early hours of 3rd August.

She took to social media to describe how she had been heading to the restroom when she encountered three male crew members and one female colleague gathered nearby.

She says that as she returned to her seat, one of the men approached and told her that his work friend had been saying how beautiful she was.

They allegedly asked if she was married and, when she replied that she was, said it was "too bad for your husband".

Taissa says she told them it was lucky for him, but another man then said: "Too bad, he has to share."

She also claims a third man told her there was one thing they did not like in Brazil — the Maria da Penha Law, which criminalises domestic violence against women.

Taissa says she felt intimidated and powerless and returned to her seat in tears, remaining there for the rest of the eight-hour flight.

She later filed a complaint with the airline and reported the incident to the Civil Police in Rio de Janeiro.

However, since the incident occurred in international airspace, the case was forwarded to the Federal Police.

She also said she felt embarrassed for the female flight attendant who had been standing nearby, having to work alongside men who behaved that way.

TAAG Airlines said it "deeply regretted what happened" and apologised "for the extremely uncomfortable and unacceptable situation during the flight".

The company said it had "urgently opened a formal investigation", adding that it "does not condone any type of harassment, whether moral or sexual, discrimination or inappropriate conduct, under any circumstances, whether on board its aircraft or at any stage of the travel experience."

Taissa’s lawyer, Daniel Blanck, says they are preparing a criminal complaint for sexual harassment and will also file a civil claim against the airline for moral damages.
