Made in Chelsea's Binky Felstead says Instagram stranger helped her to find love

Made in Chelsea star Alexandra 'Binky' Felstead has found love with boyfriend Max Fredrik Darnton after having daughter India with former partner Josh "JP" Patterson

Reality TV star Binky Felstead says that a stranger on Instagram helped her to find love and to not let being a mother hold her back.

The Made in Chelsea star, 30, shares a three-year-old daughter with her former partner and MIC co-star Joshua "JP" Patterson.

Binky, full name Alexandra Elisabeth Felstead, told Women's Health magazine: "This girl [on Instagram] said: 'I think it's absolutely incredible what you're doing, bringing up your little girl, and I just want to let you know that I've been a single mum for two years now and I've turned away any opportunity to meet anyone because of my daughter.

"And all I can say now is that she's growing up, she doesn't need me as much any more and I'm still single and quite lonely.

"So, please make sure you're not giving up the chance to meet someone or bring yourself happiness."'

Binky is now dating boyfriend Max Fredrik Darnton and has now revealed that she hopes to have more children in the future.

She said: "Hopefully, there are more babies in the future and, you know, [I'm] looking at places in the country to have weekends, that's the type of thing I want in my future - my childhood, basically.

"I had the most amazing childhood - ducks, chickens running around in the kitchen, goats in the garden."

The MIC star also admitted that she wants to be financially independent and support her family no matter what.

Binky added; "Success for me is being able to financially look after my family... I've always been very independent; I've loved that about making my own money and coming up with new ideas... and that's what I want to keep pursuing in my 30s."

The countryside stunner recently returned to Made in Chelsea for its recent nineteenth series on E4 alongside fellow original cast member and friend Ollie Locke.

Other recent returnees include Ollie's fiancé Gareth Locke and Sam Thompson's ex-girlfriend, Tiffany Watson.

Binky's mother Jane Felstead also returned for a guest appearance.

Filming on the series was halted earlier this year due to the current coronavirus pandemic.
