There was no belt visible above the colourful green t-shirt that he was wearing.
The law states that you must wear a seat belt if one is fitted to the seat.
You can be fined up to £500 if you don’t wear a seat belt when you’re supposed to.
In the past fans have slammed the star for being irresponsible while travelling with her kids, but on this occasion Katie turned off her follower comments on the post in question.

However, a concerned fan has told The Sun: "I was shocked - it's so dangerous."
Katie's reps have been contacted for comment.
This is not the first time that Katie has sparked concern while travelling with her kids.
In March 2021, she posted a video of her daughter Princess, then 13, in the back of the car while fiancé Carl Woods drove them.

Princess appeared to be sitting on a fluffy seat cover and no belt was visible above the hooded top she was wearing.
A fan spotted the error and said: "Please make sure your daughter is wearing her seat belt in the car, on the motorway today she was sitting on it. I have the job of attending RTA and the results of irresponsible people is heartbreaking."

Turning the camera to Carl, who was driving, he finished: "Day", only for Katie to giggle: "Man!
"You thought I was going to say day, but I said man!"
The mum-of-five then turned around to film Princess in the back seat, asking: "What are you looking at, Princess?"
The teenager tried to hide her face, before telling Katie: "So cringe."
It’s not the first time Katie has raised eyebrows with her car antics involving the children.
That same month she broke the law by travelling with her son Jett on her lap on a 60mph road.
Government law states children should use a child car seat until they’re 12 years old or 135 centimetres tall.
It's because children under 12 are at risk of being injured by the car airbag if seated in the front seat of a car.
But Katie ignored the rules and let Jett sit on top of her while they made their journey on a national speed limit road.
The punishment for breaking the law is a £100 fine.
