Pregnant Binky Felstead says sharing her ‘incredibly sad’ miscarriage has helped others

Binky Felstead has revealed sharing her ‘incredibly sad’ miscarriage story has helped others who experienced similar losses.

In an interview, the Made In Chelsea star, 30, said she’s ‘still getting messages from people who are grateful’ for her candid social media post last October and has given hope to fellow sufferers now she’s expecting a child with fiancé Max Darnton, 31.

The influencer, who also co-parents daughter India, three, with ex Josh ‘JP’ Patterson, also enthused about her businessman partner becoming a dad for the first time, gushing: ‘It’ll be the best feeling ever.’

The businesswoman told Sunday Mirror’s Notebook magazine: ‘I’m still getting messages from people who are having miscarriages saying they’re so grateful. I spoke up. When I discovered I was pregnant again, this helped a lot of people, too.

‘Obviously, it’s an incredibly sad thing to experience, but it’s so nice to see I’ve helped them, even in a small way.’

‘Max is going to be incredible, he’s already fantastic with India. I can’t wait to see him with his baby. There’s nothing nicer than seeing the man of your dreams holding your new baby. It’ll be the best feeling ever.’

Earlier in the month, the TV star marked the date she would have welcomed her baby before suffering her tragic miscarriage.

In an honest message, the media personality admitted she ‘won’t be able to fully relax until he is in my arms’.

Reflecting on the ‘anxieties’ of going through pregnancy after a miscarriage, the brunette explained she is ‘pleased to finally be on the home stretch after a long and nerve-wracking road’ to her third trimester. 

Binky wrote on her Instagram story: ‘Yesterday would have been our due date. I still get messages daily from you and I’m so happy people are feeling able to talk about miscarriage more which is helping so many.

‘I’m so grateful I was able to get pregnant again, and am finally on the ‘homestretch’ after what has felt like a long and nerve wracking road.

‘Pregnancy after miscarriage doesn’t come without anxiety – I don’t think I will be able to fully relax until this baby boy is in my arms.’

She also tagged the Miscarriage Association in the post, adding: ‘This date won’t be forgotten and I’m thinking of all those who have lost or are struggling. Please remember there is so much help out there x’.
