After welcoming her beautiful baby son, Jude, three months ago, Love Island's Montana Brown has revealed that she's suffering from postpartum hair loss.
In a Story posted to her Instagram today (Thursday 21 September), Montana shared a photo of the small bald patch with the caption: "Also on top of everything else post partum. I washed my hair for the first time in a long time since surgery, it was so painful but worth it then I discovered I'm balding now so that's fabulous news."
This follows a string of other Stories Montana has shared this month on Instagram, letting her followers know that she's been hospitalised and had to undergo post-birth surgery, although not specifying what for.
In a series of photographs uploaded to Insta, Montana has been open and honest about her road to recovery since giving birth, often referencing the pressures of getting "back into shape" after pregnancy, and the need to look and feel a certain way.
Fans have been quick to support the Love Island star with heartfelt messages flooding the comments section of each of Montana's posts.
One follower recently wrote, "Wow, you’re doing amazing. Can't imagine how hard it’s been but you’re staying super strong". While another related to Montana's situation and commented, "I’m 2 weeks post-op! It’s a long road but definitely does get easier. Keep on top of the pain-relief and anti-inflammatories, ice and elevation. You’ve got this!"
It can't be easy Montana, but we're sending you love!
