Love Island's Montana Brown rushed to hospital after fearing she can't feel baby moving

Pregnant Montana Brown has revealed she was recently rushed to hospital.

The former Love Island star, 27, took to her Instagram Stories today to thank staff at her local NHS hospital and reveal her late-night hospital dash.

She explained how she had been 'MIA' from her usual social media activity due to worries about her unborn baby - admitting she has "a little bit of a week with reduced fetal movement" so had to get checked out.

Speaking on her Instagram Stories, Montana confessed she didn't fear it was "anything sinister" but wanted to be safe and get checked over by a doctor, where she had her unborn baby's heart rate monitored and an ultrasound earlier this week.

The mum-to-be continued to reveal how she feels calmer and more reassured after being seen by medical professionals and even joked how you should always 'bring snacks' if having to pay a visit to A&E - confessing her partner Mark brought her a McDonalds to eat in the waiting room on Tuesday night.

Writing to her followers today, the pregnant star said: "NHS has such a lovely team at our hospital. Feel so bad as obviously v understaffed. We were there Tuesday from 10:15pm - 2:45am.

"We went back yesterday and the midwifes, doctors and sonographers were so helpful babies tummy looked on the small side so we're going back for a growth scan and potentially another test if we get a call today from fetal medicine."

She added: "I felt a bit bad at the start for going in so much but I think it's important to go with your gut and be over cautious."

Montana's hospital trip comes just days on from the star revealing the gender of her unborn baby.

The reality TV star, who announced she's pregnant with her first child with beau Mark O’Connor on Christmas Eve 2022, shared a sweet video with her fans over the weekend and revealed she is expecting a little boy later this year.

Mark and Montana met in Barbados on New Year’s Eve in 2020, but it wasn't love at first sight for the parents-to-be.

"People assume it’s a romantic story because we met on New Year’s Eve and kissed at midnight," the pregnant star told OK! earlier this year, "But we didn’t initially like each other. We went on dates, but there was no spark or fireworks.

"We got along well and I realised he was a man of his word. I’d had experience with unreliable men, whereas I trusted Mark from the get-go."

She went on to reveal that she began 'falling for' Mark six weeks on from their first kiss, as they celebrated Valentine's Day together.
