Binky Felstead makes ‘revolting’ confession that she hasn’t washed her make-up brush in 10 years

Binky Felstead made a ‘revolting’ confession that she hasn’t washed her make-up brush in 10 years during a mother-daughter makeover clip.

The Made In Chelsea star, 34, who shares India, seven, with ex-boyfriend Josh ‘JP’ Patterson, confessed in that the brush originally belonged to her daughter’s godfather, Ollie Locke. 

While sharing a sweet moment with her eldest child, Binky, who is also mother to Wolfie, three, and Wilder, two, explained that she had kept the brush for over a decade and still uses it today. 

India can be seen unleashing her creative spark as she layered on the bronzer and lined her mother’s lips with a pencil. 

In the clip Binky confessed: ‘Do you know your godfather, Ollie Locke? This was his makeup brush from about ten years ago and I have never washed it since. How revolting is that and I still use it?’

India appeared unphased by the revelation and continued to layer on the bronzer until the TV personality persuaded her to stop. 

And Binky’s fans flocked to the comments to share their amuement over the clip. 

One follower penned: ‘Haha, the makeup brush. Me too!’, while another wrote, ‘Waiting for Ollie’s reply to the makeup brush x’. 

Motherhood is a vital part of Binky’s life now and along with husband Max she appears to have the perfect fairytale family. 

Yet her romantic journey – well documented on Made In Chelsea – was far from smooth and she admits she experienced a few ‘questionable’ relationships.

One of her central storylines was her on-again-off-again relationship with fellow cast member Alex Mytton, who was unfaithful to her numerous times. 

After splitting with Alex for good she began dating JP and the couple quit the show during season 13 after revealing they were expecting a baby girl together. 

Their relationship was not meant to be, however, and they split 15 months after India was born.

She then started dating her husband Max Fredrik Darnton in January 2019 after they met at Soho Farmhouse and the couple later married in September 2021.

Her clip comes after she revealed that doctors had found ‘severely abnormal cells’ during a smear test nine years ago. 

The TV personality recalled that she was pushed by her mother Jane to have the test which led to months of surgical treatment, which helped her to go on to have three children. Treatment of pre-cancerous cells may weaken the cervix, causing pregnancy complications.

Alongside a short clip of her baking with her three children, Binky said on Instagram she is ‘forever grateful’ for the test. 

In a caption to celebrate ‘Cervical Cancer Prevention Week’ Binky begged fans not to put the test off as it ‘could save your life’.

She wrote: ‘9 years ago when I was 25, Mummy Felstead gave me the push I needed to book a smear test after I kept complaining of a sore tummy. Thank goodness she did, because my results showed I had severely abnormal cells (CIN 3).

‘I was told if I didn’t have them removed, it could affect my chances of having children, so that’s what I did whilst she held my hand. I’m forever grateful for that one test because I now have my three beautiful babies.

‘It’s Cervical Cancer Prevention Week, and this is your reminder: Book your smear test. Don’t put it off. It could save your life.’
