Made in Chelsea will be swiftly coming to the conclusion of its latest series and it’s still unclear whether true love will blossom between two of our absolute faves.
In the ultimate are they/aren't they to ever appear on the E4 show, Miles Nazaire and Ruby Adler are constantly sharing cute pics of each other on social media with declarations of appreciation and love for the other.
Once or twice? Cute BFF behaviour, but a constant array of flirty photos and couple-y poses? Very suspicious actions for two people NOT in a romantic relationship.
In the latest instalment of 'Will Ruby and Miles ever confess their love for each other?', Ruby shared a cosy shot of her and Miles on Instagram as it was the MiC heartthrob's birthday. Below the photo she added a red heart emoji and that cute smiley emoji surrounded by hearts, you know the one. Surely the most romantic emojis available?
The rather adorable picture was re-shared by Miles on his own story with ANOTHER cute heart-eyed emoji.
It all began when Miles – the series’ most prolific womanizer since Spencer Matthews – got in the middle of Ruby’s ten-year relationship with fellow Chelsea socialite Reza Amiri-Garroussi.
His involvement led to Ruby and Reza's prompt demise and the stage was set for a romance of their own to thrive, but Miles’ head was once again turned by his ex-girlfriend Maeva D’Ascanio, herself in the middle of a btrual breakup with her boyfriend (and Miles’ former best mate), James Taylor.
Ironically enough, Maeva and James are now actually engaged and have JUST had a baby. Are you keeping up?
If not, don't worry even the official Made in Chelsea instagram page is confused by the whole ordeal and created a mini film based on the not quite love affair of SW3's answer to Ross and Rachel.
Either way, as is custom for Made in Chelsea love triangles (and any triangles in the reality TV world, for that matter) viewers quickly picked sides, with some branding Maeva and Miles’ ongoing flirtations as “toxic” and others calling Ruby “desperate” and her relationship with Miles “non-existent”.
“Boys like Miles like the chase. He chased her, she made it to clear he could have her after she split with Rez, now he's not interested 💁🏼♀️,” commented one viewer, while another wrote, “I feel like just because Rez made a point of saying that Miles never had any real intentions with her she is now going to try make a point to get with Miles. So predictable 🙄."
Since she and Reza split, Ruby has gone on a few dates with new boy Charlie Wicks. Miles, on the other hand, has of course dated half the female population of London.
But the question remains:
Are Miles and Ruby from Made in Chelsea together?
As of last night's episode (12 December 2022), Miles and Rubes are still firmly set in the 'friends' territory but New Years is just around the corner, so we'll see what happens when the clock strikes midnight. Oh, and don't forget we could see them get together in Made in Chelsea: Bali.

Made in Chelsea most dramatic splits - slider
Spencer Matthews and Caggie Dunlop
The OG tragic split, even featuring an IRL (well, scripted reality) leaving at the airport scene. Spencer and Caggie weren't officially a couple, with Spencer dating model Funda but the chemistry between them was undeniable and for a long time Spenny thought of her as the love of his life. Eventually, feeling played by Spencer stringing her along while refusing to dump Funda (we don't blame her, tbh) Caggie left to pursue a "music career" in New York, and Spencer, realising the error of his ways, rushed to catch her at the airport to win her back. He missed her. Talk about dramatic.
Ollie Lock and Gabriella Ellis
Cast your minds back to the first series and you will remember that a long-locked Ollie Lock was in fact dating a woman - aspiring pop star Garbriella Ellis, no less. But the couple split because Ollie was confused about his sexuality, and he quickly went on his "first ever" date with a man, leaving Gabriella heartbroken. So heartbroken, in fact, that she wrote her next pop song, Fight, about him, and there were some bizarre scenes in series two when she cast an Ollie lookalike to play the role of the leading man (subtle, hun).
Hugo Taylor and Millie Mackintosh
We all know how this turned out IN THE END, but cast your minds back to series one and you'll remember the OG Chelsea power couple met a very messy end when Millie found out that Hugo (best mate of slimy Spencer Matthews) had cheated on her with HER best friend, the unassuming Rosie Fortescue. Cue a VERY dramatic speech at a party where Millie outed their betrayal in front of all their friends, making for possibly one of the best MiC scenes to this day.
Spencer Matthews and Louise Thompson
After Caggie, Spencer's next conquest (in fact there might have been a few in between, to be fair), was weepy Louise Thompson, who was regularly reduced to tears by his womanizing ways. For some reason she stayed with him through multiple infidelities (seriously, we don't get it?) but things eventually came to a head when Spence met Louise at a bridge by the Thames (a classic) and told her he couldn't respect her when she "allowed" him to cheat on her.
Binky Felstead and Alex Mytton
We were all rooting for Binky and new boy Alex Mytton when he showed up in series five, but it quickly became apparent he was one of the 'bois' by how well he got along with resident villains Spencer and Jamie Laing. They were a cute couple for a while, but Binky eventually split with Alex after learning he'd cheated on her on a night out with Spencer. She later found out the night in question had actually been an ORGY, which made things ten times worse. Poor Binks.
Sam Thompson and Tiffany Watson
Ah, young love's dream. Except, not really, because a freshly de-cherried (presumably) Sam Thompson simply could not keep it in his pants during his two year relationship with Tiffany Watson. The couple eventually split during tearful scenes in Croatia, with Tiffany quitting the show shortly after. However, after Sam returned in 2019 with his Love Island girlfriend Zara McDermott in tow there were some seriously tense scenes where Sam very much gave the impression he wasn't over his first love.
Louise Thompson and Alik Alfus
This one ruined us. Sure, New Yorker Alik was a bit of a bumbling idiot, and moving to the UK and asking Louise to marry him was A TAD overkill, but the scenes where Louise decided she couldn't go through with it and gave the ring back were peak heartbreak. There was later talk that their split had something to do with fellow American cast member Stephanie Pratt, but she hit back with a tweet saying, "Uhhh no she was shagging her trainer since March." She now has a baby with said trainer, Ryan Libbey.
Jamie Laing and Frankie Gaff
We hate to say it, but Chelsea OG Jamie Laing just doesn't seem like he deserves a girlfriend. Not that Frankie Gaff was our fave, but is there a single partner Jamie hasn't done the dirty on? His relationship with Frankie was particularly eye-roll, but Frankie gave as good as she got when she went after Jamie's boi Alex Mytton and allegedly hooked up with TOWIE's Dan Edgar. They eventually split after one too many tearful confrontations at the dinner table with friends, and Frankie quit shortly afterward.
Liv Bentley and Digby Edgley
After meeting on the set of one of 'photographer' Liv's nude shoots, it was love at first sight for these two and they managed a pretty normal relationship for a good few series. But things started getting rocky in series 18 with Digby increasingly frustrated by Liv's social life and Liv feeling stifled. At the end of the series after some major on-ing and an off-ing, Digby left for South Africa for work for three months, but then Liv went on Celebs Go Dating and the former couple shared some cut throat digs on Insta.
Maeva D'Ascanio and Miles Nazaire
Let's face it - the golden era of MiC ended when the last remaining connections to the OG cast faded from the show (excluding Jamie Laing, obv), and we've been less invested in their relationships since then. But a special mention goes to Maeva D'Ascanio and Miles Nazaire. As each others' first loves in their native France, Maeva followed Miles to London where she joined the MiC cast and after a full series of heartbreak, the couple agreed to move on. We're sure Miles didn't have his best mate James Taylor in mind for Maeva's next squeeze, though. Awks.
