Made In Chelsea original Binky Felstead says life now is more about her growing family and long dog walks than big nights out on the King's Road

It's hectic with three kids, but I wouldn't say no to one more'

Since she first graced our television screens on Made In Chelsea way back in 2011, fans of Binky Felstead have been on something of a journey with her.

Binky – whose real name is Alexandra – was one of the original cast members on the reality series about the well-heeled residents of Chelsea, Fulham and Knightsbridge, alongside the likes of Spencer Matthews, Millie Mackintosh, Louise Thompson and Ollie Locke.

Over the years we saw her transform from a rather unlucky-in-love young woman in her early twenties into a devoted mother to India, six, who she shares with her ex-partner and fellow MIC alumnus Josh Patterson.

Now 33, Binky met Max Frederik Darnton, 34, when they were at separate parties in Oxfordshire’s Soho Farmhouse. They married in July 2021 in a civil ceremony at Chelsea’s Old Town Hall, followed by a stunning clifftop Corfu wedding celebration a year later.

The couple are also now devoted parents to sons Wolfie, two, and Wilder, who was born in April last year. As a mum-of-three, Binky tells OK! she’s more of a fan of “long river walks” with her pet pooch Pedro, than partying on the King’s Road as she used to do.

She last appeared on the show to see her close friends Ollie and Gareth Locke tie the knot at London’s Natural History Museum in 2020, but has clearly put the reality star chapter of her life behind her.

In an exclusive chat with OK!, Binky tells us why motherhood has been a struggle at times but even having “a bit of a wobble” in the early days won’t mean she’ll rule out welcoming baby number four…

Raising three young children must be a juggling act. How do you manage it?
