Love Island star Montana Brown has shared the guilt she felt when her baby son was taken to hospital after a fall.

Back in June, she gave birth to her first child, Jude, with her fiancé Mark O'Connor

This week, her son suffered a fall and was hospitalised, with Montana sharing what happened in an Instagram story.

"Jude had his first fall," she wrote. "He was in a DockATot type thing and in 5 seconds managed to launch himself off the kitchen counter and landed on the hard tiles. Literally the worst mum guilt of my life."

Montana took her son to A&E to get him checked out, accompanied by Jude's aunt and uncle. He was "absolutely fine", with only a "big mark on the front of his head," she said.

But the reality star, who appeared on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins earlier in the year, candidly opened up about how the scary experience had affected her, as a new mother.

She told her followers: "Did I cry my eyes out? Yes. Will I be scared to put him down without wrapping him in pillows… YES.

"…Still feeling sick to my stomach that it happened tbh, turned around to get my porridge out of the microwave and as I turned back saw him launch himself backwards… I know these things happen but his first proper cry went through me."

Montana previously spoke about how she and her partner Mark had previously struggled with fertility issues before she eventually fell pregnant.

When asked if her pregnancy was planned, she replied on an Instagram story: "This was planned, however, I didn't realise for ages that I was pregnant because we were trying earlier on in the year and [it] wasn't happening."

The couple got to announce their pregnancy in a sweet video montage posted online on Christmas Day last year.

Montana revealed she underwent surgery back in September, just months after giving birth to her son.

Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
