Well this isn’t exactly an ideal situation right before Christmas – Jamie Laing’s Candy Kittens sweet business is in the red by £260,000.

We’re sure the Made In Chelsea star won’t have to go crying to his trust fund too quickly though as the firm is set to make a profit next year and the loss was expected.

Candy Kittens is the most popular sweets brand in department store Selfridges and 7,000 bags a week are sold in posh supermarket Waitrose.

Well, you’re doing rather well there Mr Laing despite shedding a bit of cash.

The reality star may have picked up some tips from his parents as he is the heir to the McVities biscuits empire.

Speaking about his own business in the past, he said: “Underneath I’m quite calculating. I know what I want to do. And I know how to create something.”

Anyone else think this makes him strangely attractive?
