Made in Chelsea cast – All the stars returning for season 28
There are some new cast members making their way to SW3!
After a drama-filled season that came to an end earlier this summer, Made in Chelsea is back again full of even more drama, plenty of romance, and likely a few love triangles along the way.
Season 28 of the popular reality show returned last week, and a lot has changed in SW3.
It seems that new alliances are forming after Harvey Armstrong clashed with Sam Vanderpump over a love interest. The feud between Miles Nazaire, James Taylor and Maeva D'Ascanio has been reignited. We even saw a surprise return of OG cast members, Ollie and Gareth Locke and Sophie Hermann.
As ever, familiar faces made their way back onto screens, but we also spotted some newcomers who definitely ruffled some feathers. But who are they?
Read on to find out who stars in Made in Chelsea season 28 and who has recently joined the SW3 crew!
