Made In Chelsea star reveals shock baby news

We didn't see this coming

Published 15th Jan 2017

They've had a on and off relationship during their time on Made In Chelsea and now in shock news Binky Felstead and JP Patterson have revealed they are expecting their first child together.

The couple, who aren't currently together revealed their news to Hello! Magazine.

Binky, real name Alexandra said, "It’s obviously been a huge shock to both of us. This is a new start and a new chapter in our lives. I want to be a little family, to be honest. But I'm going to be ok either way. Whatever happens, this baby is not going to be affected. And I know Josh will be part of the baby’s life whether we are together or not. We are a unit now."

JP added that the pair are both 'mature' and aren't going to just get back together because they are going to become parents. Binky added, "We're just taking it very easy. But we're not dating anyone else. We're going on dates and hanging out. It would be silly for us to rush back into anything, but we want to focus on the future."

Binky has been a regular cast member on the popular E4 reality show Made In Chelsea since the first series aired back in 2011 and has become a popular face with fans.

JP didn't appear until series nine in 2015 and it didn't take him long to make acquaintances with Binky and make her his first ever girlfriend.

When JP found it difficult to adapt to being in a relationship, the pair went through a rough patch with viewers of the show witnessing Binky cheat on him.

With the new series of Made In Chelsea set to air later in the year, we hope both Binky and JP can put their differences aside for the sake of the little one.
