Binky Felstead has shared a positive update on the health of her baby son after he was rushed to hospital this week.
The Made In Chelsea star, 32, went through a parent’s worst fear this week as her one-year-old son, Wolfie, suffered a severe allergic reaction.
Little Wolfie, who Binky shares with husband Max Darnton, went into anaphylactic shock after eating hummus, which the reality star believes was caused by sesame present in the dip.
Her baby was rushed to hospital via ambulance, with Binky later thanking paramedics for their quick actions in providing a potentially life-saving adrenaline shot to her sick child.
‘He started to get incredibly uncomfortable and was continuously rubbing his face and getting upset,’ she wrote on social media after the scare.
‘He went bright red all over his face & hands and white little spots appeared shortly before his eye, lips & tongue started to swell.’
Thankfully, after a quick trip to hospital – sirens blazing, which Wolfie loved – and being monitored for several hours, Wolfie is now home and back to his old self.

TV star Binky shared a series of snaps of her son looking happy and healthy, grinning for the camera, writing on Instagram: ‘Thank you,’ with a praying emoji.
‘He’s back to his usual “nutty self”,’ she said, adding: ‘bad joke!’
She thanked everyone who had contacted her with referrals or recommendations after Wolfie’s scare, saying she was ‘really learning so much.’
She urged anyone else in their situation: ‘If in doubt [definitely]y call 999 or 111 ( I was apprehensive at first not wanting to waste anyones time & not knowing the full extent of what was going on).
‘But thank god we did, as it escalated so quickly, timing to get him medical help was crucial (sic).’

Binky promised that, once Wolfie had seen a new specialist, she would ‘share as much info as possible…. so hopefully [it] helps others in the future.’
On Sunday, Binky sent her heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in Wolfie’s care, including sharing a photograph of her in a hospital bed with her son surrounded by the paramedics who had rushed him there safely.
‘Wolfie’s face started calming down again luckily & he was loving the noises & all the exciting things dangling off inside of the ambulance,’ she wrote. ‘He also got a bear to keep for being so brave.’

‘The NHS and all the team have been nothing short of amazing,’ Binky stated. ‘The family and I are unbelievably grateful for everything you did today 🌈 ✨ xxx #NHS THANK YOU 🙏🏼💙’
It’s been a stressful week for the family, as just days earlier Binky had revealed her beloved pet dog Pedro had been left for dead after being hit by a van.

She and Max had said tearful goodbyes to Pedro’s ‘lifeless body’ before he pulled through – and she believes ‘that helped bring him around.’
‘SO HAPPY YOU’RE HOME MY BOY,’ she wrote on social media. ‘You can sleep in our bed WHENEVER you like!!!’
