Montana, 28, updated fans as she uploaded a black and white snap to Instagram showing her looking sad.

In a lengthy caption, she wrote: "OK maybe we're not going away as our flight has been delayed until 1am."

The Love Island favourite then stunned fans by revealing how she was stopping boredom creeping in.

Montana added: "Although I just had a guzzle of my breast milk to pass the time as I was thirsty and seeing as I can't have dairy, I'm sure it's actually very good for me so I may continue to drink it."

She then posted a snap showing her with a funny-face filter and confirmed their flight had been cancelled completely.

She then confirmed she had "woken up on my birthday firmly on UK soil."

She cuddled baby Jude - who she welcomed in June - and wrote in her caption: "I'm feeling very grateful for another year around the sun.

"My health, my family and just being pretty happy and content.

"Although our first family trip didn't go to plan it has meant I am at my family home with my mum, fiance, child and fur baby Zoley Moley."

Montana has been keeping fans updated with her maternity journey and was recently seen breastfeeding her tot in the bath.

Meanwhile, amid the transport chaos, fuming passengers were told yesterday morning that the network was down and that their flights would be delayed for hours - with many shocked as they sat on the planes waiting to take off.

Many Brits had been flying back to the UK after their Bank Holiday weekend getaways - stuck for hours as they waited for the flights to resume.

TV presenter Gabby Logan was also among those caught up in the problems at Heathrow.

The "technical issue" that grounded the flights across the UK was said to be fixed by yesterday afternoon, but experts warned of knock-on disruption in the days to come as planes and crews were left in the wrong places.
