Binky Felstead and Josh Patterson confirm they have split 15 months after having daughter India
Binky Felstead and Josh Patterson have confirmed on social media that they have split, 15 months after having daughter India.
The pair responded to the rumours that hey had gone their separate ways with a touching statement on social media.
Alongside a picture of the pair, she wrote: 'Hi guys, We have some news to share with you and we wanted you to hear it from us, so that things don't get twisted by hear say or speculation.
'So with that in mind, it is with a heavy heart we have to tell you that we have decided to separate as a couple.
'We are still a family and India is, and will always be the absolute light of our lives.'
The mum continued to explain that while the two still 'adore' each other, they are at different 'paths' in their lives but will continue to be good friends.
'However we have realised we are on very different paths at the moment, although we still adore each other, we need to give each other the space to grow', she added.

The sad news comes just over a year after the Made in Chelsea stars welcomed their first child, baby India.
The two started dating at the end of 2015, while still on the show. They split up for the first time around a year later, with Binky saying on the Lorraine show in August 2016: 'JP told me to move on and there’s only so long a girl can wait.'
The two got back together at the beginning of 2017, a few weeks after Binky announced she was expecting a baby with JP.
