At this point, as much as you may love, hate, love to hate or hate to love Made in Chelsea's Miles Nazaire, he's part of the show's very expensive furniture and keeps us perpetually on our journalistic toes with his shocking/reckless/loveable/adorable/confusing af actions on and off camera.

The legendary lothario – who recently split from his girlfriend Amélie Esquenet – joined the series back in 2018. Since then he's established himself as a Made in Chelsea fave and for the last few series has positioned himself at the centre of most storylines (even the one's that have nothing to do with him – reality telly icon behaviour tbh).

The trailer for the latest series has us even more excited than ever to tune in. Although we can't gleam much from the quick snippet, it looks like there's trouble on the horizon between Miles and young Freddy Knatchbull, as Miles is seen saying to crestfallen-looking Freddy, "She told me that you guys were just friends."

It's looking pretty likely that Miles is back to his old tricks.

There's also lots of talk of "kissing friends," which not gonna lie, also has Miles written all over it.

From his endless list of exes to his fiery on-screen feuds, Miles never fails to deliver the drama, and let's face it, if he did, he wouldn't be doing his rather boujie job.

So here's everything you need to know about him...

Who is Miles Nazaire?

Miles was a new sign up to series 15 of Made in Chelsea in 2018. He made an impact when he was introduced as a club promoter and quickly caused havoc for Liv Bentley and Digby Edgley (who were already very much on the rocks), when he started a rumour that Digby had been messaging his girlfriend. Could it have been Maeva? It was never confirmed and Digby always denied the allegations.

He later moved in with Sophie ‘Habbs’ Habboo and Emily Blackwell, but that didn’t end well when the lines between friendship and romance were blurred between him and Emily.

He later scored some bro points when he asked Sam Thompson's permission to take his ex, Tiffany Watson, out on a date.

How old is Miles Nazaire?

A December baby (and a Sagittarius), Miles is 28 years old. His birthday is 12 December 1995.

Where is Miles Nazaire from?

Miles is proud of his French heritage but is, of course, based in Chelsea, London.

What is Miles Nazaire's job?

As well as appearing on Dancing on Ice, Miles is a reality TV star, podcast host and social media influencer.

However, before he found fame on Made in Chelsea he was doing something VERY different.

During an episode on his Playtime podcast, Miles and his co-host Love Island 2022 star Charlie Radnedge were chatting to their guest, fitness blogger Obi Vincent, about work and what they were doing before fame. It was during the episode that Miles, who comes from a family of creatives, revealed he didn't start out in TV.

Speaking to the Charlie and Obi, he admitted, "I worked in an office, I did, when I was nineteen."

Miles Nazaire? In an office? The mind boggles.

He went on to list a whole host of occupations he had, all before the age of twenty two, "I went from working in a pub, bars, waiters, then working in an office for a company, a production house, then from there going back into retail and then becoming a tailor."

A tailor? Sorry, WHAT? Why didn't we know this?

Although we can totally imagine it, in fact it kind of makes sense that the Chelsea charmer (going to copyright that) would be up for creating dashing suits for everyone else to wear.

Has Miles Nazaire quit Made in Chelsea?

No, but you have every right to ask that question, as it's almost happened in the past... and more than once.

At the start of series 25 (which began airing in March 2023), Miles posted the new cast image on his Instagram Story with the caption, "I guess I thought I should stay a little longer 😈", after SERIOUSLY suggesting he was sacking in MIC for good.

It's almost like he's addicted to the drama.

A few months prior to this post, MIC's resident angelic-faced bad boy Miles, spoke out about his future on the E4 reality series in a podcast and heavily insinuated that he was saying goodbye to SW3 forever– at least to the camera crews that follow him around that area.

Miles shared his news in episode six of his podcast, Playtime, after the turbulent ride he'd had online following Ella May Ding's departure from the show.

He said, "I haven’t had much of a private life. I get it, it’s with the job. Even if Chelsea was no more, I still know that my private life wouldn’t be completely private, but it just means that all of the dramas and the issues wouldn’t be aired on TV.”

The intention of the episode was then made painfully clear to us when Charlie awkwardly asked him, "So, are you thinking about taking a break [from Made in Chelsea]?"

Miles responded by saying, "God, this is kind of breaking news, isn’t it?" He definitely had his producer hat on here, but we braced ourselves for the inevitable all the same.

Miles confirmed, "Yeah, I’m definitely thinking about it. I’ve already had conversations with Chelsea [producers] and it’s not a confirmation or a definite ‘yes, I’m not doing Chelsea next year’, but we’ll see how the conversation goes. We’ll see what happens."

After literally zero reaction from Charlie's face, Miles continued, "It’s been an amazing ride, but now I’m turning 27 in three days I’m like, ‘Okay, cool – I’ve had fun’ And I think the next part of my career is going to start next year and I’m excited for that.”

Fans may also remember that Miles previously took a break from the show in 2020, telling OK! magazine, "So last year it was more the fact that I had done two years on the show and lockdown was coming into place, I thought it was a good decision for me to take some time off.

"It was never me saying goodbye to the show, it was just me saying, 'Oh you know what, I wanna venture into other business ideas' and other things I wanna do for my projects with me team, and just take a bit of time off really.

"I took that time off, I was really, really happy about it and then I got back in contact with Chelsea and thought, 'Well let's come back and have some fun.'"

Has Miles Nazaire had surgery?

Miles kept fans updated after going under the knife for surgery on his chest. He revealed in 2022 that he was suffering with gynaecomastia - a condition which results in extra breast tissue in men - and underwent surgery to try and fix the problem, twice.

He then went into hospital again to have excess breast tissue removed for the third time and kept his Instagram followers updated the whole way. The reality star revealed that the operation had been a success and even went as far to show the excess breast tissue that had been removed on camera.

Alongside the gory snap, Miles wrote, "This is what they removed 🙃," and joked, "Steak anyone?"

Four years ago, when Miles began taking exercise more seriously and, in his words, his body became more sculpted, he thought he had stubborn fat behind his nipples, but it transpired it was gynaecomastia.

Miles opened up about his condition in series of vlogs last year and told his followers, “What annoys me is, I’ve got really insecure about it.”

Why is Miles Nazaire feuding with Sam Prince?

Remember when Miles b*tched about Sam Prince's nipple always popping out of his barely-done-up shirts?

Sam recently spilled the tea on his ongoging feud with Miles, saying, "Right now, me and Miles are not… we probably get on a week in the year."

This doesn't come as much of a surprise as Sam and Miles had a bit of a barney during the Corsica eps, what with Miles being besties with Yas and all – and Sam and Yas, well... you know.

Miles Nazaire's transformation

If you watch the E4 show – or class Miles' social media pages as one of your hobbies, like we do (or both - zero judgement here) - you'll know that the reality telly lothario was hitting the gym HARD in 2022 and 2023.

The 28-year-old's physique has changed dramatically since he first appeared on Made in Chelsea back in 2018 (which is somehow six years ago now it's 2024), packing on more and more muscle every month.

Who are Miles Nazaire’s parents?

Miles’ dad Jacques is a French artist and Jazz musician, and even made a cameo on the show when he popped over to visit his son and play a gig with him in series 15.

Miles’ mum is an English born sculptor called Victoria, who lives in Les Issambres in France.

Who is Miles Nazaire dating?

Miles went Instagram and Made in Chelsea official with Amélie last year but it didn't last and Miles is now single.

He's previously dated the likes of Maeva D’AscanioYasmine Zweegers and Issy Francis-Baum.

When was Miles Nazaire on Dancing on Ice?

Miles competed on the series 16 of Dancing on Ice and made it all the way to the final. He was paired with professional figure skater, Vanessa Bauer. The pair lost out to Corrie actor, Ryan Thomas.

Are Miles Nazaire and Vanessa Bauer dating?

Nope. Miles and Vanessa are just Dancing on Ice partners although Miles' BFF Emily Blackwell reckons ITV producers paired the duo up on purpose...

What happened with Miles Nazaire and Inga Valentiner?

Miles had a love interest set up by producers in the spring 2021 series, when Inga Valentiner joined the cast. Miles and Inga had met once and been messaging on social media before Inga joined the cast, but sadly, things weren't to be.

"Inga is not only a beautiful girl, but she's very creative and we have this really good connection on music and art, because of my background and family, so we had initially connected because of that," he told Grazia at the time.

"And it was just quite nice to talk to someone in that capacity, and not just about gossip and drama. There is huge pressure with starting a relationship, not only on the show, but in the house: you've got all eyes on you," he added.

"And also, everyone's opinion is just going to bounce around - some people aren't going to like it, and some people will. And then people take comments and change them. It's constantly a battle, and it's sometimes very hard to actually focus on the person that you're with."

What happened with Miles Nazaire and Maeva D’Ascanio?

Miles and Maeva’s rocky relationship was explosive enough to rival Hugo Taylor and Millie Mackintosh’s from series one.

Miles had vaguely mentioned an ex-girlfriend in France during his time on the show, and when Maeva arrived in Chelsea two series later it was clear there were a lot unresolved issues between the two.

After MANY a vicious row, they eventually broke up for good, with Maeva going on to date Miles’ best mate James Taylor.

Maeva and James skipped series 19 for a ski season in France, with Miles admitting, "I am so effing happy they're not in it now."

He added, "It is nothing to do with me not being over it, it is more that I don't have to see them, or see them together in front of my face all of the time."

What happened with Miles Nazaire and Ruby Adler?

Miles successfully wreaked havoc within the longest-running relationship in the show’s history. Reza Garroussi and his girlfriend Ruby Adler had been a couple for a decade when they became primary cast members for series 21.

But despite having a seemingly strong and successful relationship off camera for ten years, as soon as they became a main plot line on the show cracks started to show. Miles quickly made it known he was interested in Ruby, despite her having a long-term boyfriend.

Ruby’s ongoing bone she’d been picking with Reza was that he never posted her on his social media and scheming Miles stirred the pot by suggesting Rez was “ashamed” of her. It led to Rez defending himself by saying he’d struggled to trust Ruby after she was unfaithful much earlier in their relationship.

Despite all the drama, Miles and Ruby have remained pals.
