Former Made in Chelseaqueen Millie Mackintosh has spoken about her recent dramatic trip to A&E with her daughter Sienna after the one year old wouldn’t stop crying and was refusing to eat or drink anything.

Taking to Instagram, Millie opened up about how hard the experience was for her and her husband, Hugo Taylor.

“It’s been a rough few days in the Taylor household, Sienna has really not been herself. I put it down to having a cold and possibly teething as she kept crying and pointing at her mouth, by the end of the week she was refusing to eat or drink anything, even the sight of her milk bottle would make her scream so I knew it was something more.

“We took her to A&E and they found ulcers on her tongue and the roof of her mouth, they diagnosed her with Hand, Foot and Mouth. Her throat is very sore, apparently it’s like tonsillitis but worse. I felt so bad for not realising, but she doesn’t have the telling rash around her mouth or on her hands and feet - but apparently that can come later.”

9. Oliver Proudlock

Ollie's Instagram feed is not great for scrolling through if you're single since every other picture is a snap of him looked loved up with his wife Emma. However, if you are single we reckon it couldn't hurt to have a scroll through his topless pics which he makes around £2,393 for. Don't say we never give you anything.

8. Spencer Matthews

Spencer seems to have it all: two adorable kids, the lovely Vogue as his wife and numerous business ventures and podcasts so it's a little surprising that he doesn't earn as much as some of his cast members on Instagram. Having said that, his £2,559 per post is probably just pennies to him.

7. Stephanie Pratt

If this list had been made in the late noughties when The Hills was in its heyday, Stephanie would surely have nabbed a much higher spot on this list. As it stands she currently makes £2,799 per post which isn't to be sniffed at.

4. Sam Thompson

If this was a TikTok rich list, Sam would surely be number one but fourth place, earning a solid £3,177 per post on Instagram, isn't a bad spot to be in.

3. Millie Mackintosh

Millie Mackintosh's Instagram feed nicely showcases her domestic bliss without making us feel too jealous about it so it's no wonder she's so high up on this list. Making £3,289 per post, no wonder she's got so many glam outfits.

2. Binky Felstead

The soon-to-be mother-of-two comes in at number two for her Instagram earnings with a supposed £3,470 per post. We reckon, if the new baby's as adorable as India, then Binky's earnings may soon put her in the number one spot.

1. Georgia Toffolo

Not only is Toff the Queen of the Jungle after winning the 17th series of I'm a Celeb, she's also the highest earner on Instagram making around £4,184 per post.

She continued, “We have been giving her regular pain relief and using a numbing throat spray which seems to be helping a little, she is sleeping more than normal but when she is awake she is crying non stop, which breaks my heart.

“It’s so hard to see your child unwell and I can’t explain to her that it will be ok.”

After thanking her followers for all their suggestions she added, “Rules and routine have mainly gone out the window with lots of Peppa Pig and cocomelon!

“Fingers crossed she turns a corner today and starts feeling better. Sending lots of love to all the parents out there with a sick child, I keep saying to myself this too shall pass 💗”.

Luckily Sienna seems to be on the mend as earlier today Millie shared a sweet video of her playing with a toy kitchen saying, “Sienna is a bit better this morning. She is playing for the first time in days and is much calmer!

“So far she has eaten a croissant and some watermelon which are her current favourites.”

Millie’s friends and followers were quick to share their well wishes to the family with one fan saying, “Oh bless her heart. Lots of love to you all, there’s nothing worse than when your child isn’t very well and they don’t understand when you say it’ll be ok 😢😢 x”.

Another related to the experience and said, “Sending love and strength my little boy has it too. He’s 3 and I have a newborn so it’s been tough! Hope she feels better soon.”
