Katherine Ryan has shared the harrowing moment she locked herself of out her house while her newborn daughter was inside.

The comedian was holding her 18-month-old son Fred in her arms when she realised she couldn’t get back in the door.

In what is every parent’s worst nightmare, she also discovered she had locked her phone inside meaning she couldn’t call for help.

The Masked Singer star is heard saying “oh my god” and “oh s***” as she tried to figure out what to do next.

Trying to stay calm, the mum-of-three then says “uh oh, I did something really bad” as she walks out of shot.

She captioned the post: “The time I locked my baby and phone in the house.”

The comedy star revealed all was well in the end as her husband Bobby Kootstra came to their aid saying: “Thank you @bobbyk_ for another heroic family rescue!”

Katherine also shared a photo cuddled up to baby Fenna Grace, who was born on December 16 afterwards.

Explaining what happened to her almost 900,000 Instagram followers, she said: “Sorry for posting yesterday’s dramatic video with no resolution."

She continued: “A lot of people – especially Gen Z’s – are like ‘How did he know you needed rescuing? How did he save you if you didn’t have a phone? What did you do?

“And we asked Violet [her teenage daughter] after showing her the video, what would you do? She was like, ‘throw a brick through the window’.

“I will tell you what I did. I solved in under less than 10 minutes, because I’m almost 40.”

But in a tease to get listeners to tune into her podcast, Katherine stopped short of telling any more of the story.

Instead she said: “I’ll do it on my podcast because I’m hurting for topics. So you’ll have to subscribe to my podcast if you want to know how to save your child locked in a house."

Katherine and her childhood sweetheart Bobby announced the happy news they had welcomed their first child just before Christmas.

Sharing intimate snaps from the birth, proud dad Bobby said Katherine had been 'incredible' throughout her labour with the baby delivered at their family home in north London.

Sharing the first snaps of the new arrival on social media, he wrote: "Fenna Grace Kootstra. Dec 16, at 12:05am.

"Mom is incredible! Proving her strength repeatedly through the relatively lengthy delivery at home. We are so blessed:)"

Katherine previously told The Jonathan Ross Show she wanted a home birth with her third child as she gives birth “quickly”, having nearly had her first child in the back of a mini-cab.

The stand-up also has son Fred, one, who she welcomed with partner Bobby in June 2021. She is also mum to 13-year-old daughter Violet, from a previous relationship.
