As airport delays wreak havoc on people\u2019s summer holiday plans, one Love Island star decided that desperate times call for desperate measures.<\/p>\n
As a result of a lengthy airport delay, Montana Brown was so thirsty that she decided to\u2026 drink her own breast milk.<\/p>\n
The reality star \u2013 who appeared on the ITV dating show in 2015 \u2013 was initially buzzing for the getaway with baby boy Jude, who was born in June to Montana and her partner Mark O\u2019Connor.<\/p>\n
However, the trip didn\u2019t exactly get off to the best start.<\/p>\n
\u2018We\u2019re going on a summer holiday supposedly\u2026\u2019, Montana first wrote on her Instagram Story alongside the cutest snap of Jude in the taxi.<\/p>\n
\u2018But flight is seriously delayed because of air traffic control\u2026 do not do this to me, universe\u2019, she added.<\/p>\n

In a second post hours later, a very exhausted Montana revealed the lengths she had to go to to make it through the wait.<\/p>\n
\u2018Ok maybe we\u2019re not going away as our flight has been delayed until 1am\u2026\u2019, she wrote that afternoon.<\/p>\n
\u2018Although I just had a guzzle of my breast milk to pass the time as I was thirsty and seeing as I can\u2019t have dairy, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s actually v good for me so may continue to drink it lol\u2019.<\/p>\n
Alas, the \u2018delayed\u2019 flight wasn\u2019t meant to be.<\/p>\n
\u2018Ok so flight has been cancelled\u2019, Montana wrote in a later update.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
\u2018Also as we were ushered back to arrivals to grab our suitcases, I realised I will never be able to go through passport control through the E gates until I\u2019m near 40\u2026 as kids aren\u2019t allowed\u2019, she added sorrowfully.<\/p>\n
Montana and Jude aren\u2019t the only ones to have been caught up in flight delays this bank holiday weekend.<\/p>\n
Issues with the UK air traffic control system left countless holiday-goers stranded at airports.<\/p>\n
And while the National Air Traffic Services say they have now fixed the issue that caused the network-wide failure, a significant flight backlog remains.<\/p>\n
