Binky spoke about her 'mummy meltdown'

Once safely back inside with her baby daughter, Binky opened up about the incident on Snapchat, saying: "My first mummy meltdown just happened. I was doing the bins which is supposed to be Joshua's job but he's typically gone to the gym, so I was taking the bins out and heard the door slam behind me and I was locked out with no keys and no phone. India was in here on her own, luckily she was in her bouncer so she was quite safe."

She continued: "I had to run to my mum's as fast as I could, get the keys, run back. My feet are like cut to pieces and everyone thought I looked like a mad woman. So basically, I'm no longer doing bins every again at night without anyone in the house. That is a good lesson learned. Luckily everything was okay." Binky welcomed her baby girl with her partner, Joshua 'JP' Patterson, back in June. Speaking about her first Christmas, she told HELLO!: "With India in our lives, we're really caught up in the whole spirit of the occasion. I love putting on Christmas music, lighting candles, wrapping presents – and watching our little one’s eyes light up at the wonder of it all."

JP added: "The best thing about Christmas is having India. As you get older you lose the magic of it, but now that we have a child we can relive those enchanting experiences with her. We're so looking forward to seeing her face light up when we unwrap her presents – some colourful toys that flash and make noises."
