When it was revealed that a Made in Chelseaspin-off was in the works the rumour mill went into overdrive regarding which former cast members would feature on the aptly named Beyond Chelsea.

Would it be the OGss like Caggie Dunlop and Millie Mackintosh? Were we finally getting a Lost Boys spin-off featuring the likes of Spencer Matthews and Jamie Laing?

Or would it be a mix of some other past MIC characters like PR girlie Cheska Hull, musician Andy Jordan and photographer Liv Bentley?

Turns out it was none of the above, but instead, mum of three and OG Binky Felstead, Rosie Fortescue and fan fave Lucy Watson.

But it has recently been revealed this was NOT the original line-up, as a different Kings Road queen was supposed to feature in the place of Lucy.

Louise Thompson, who is currently in a relationship with Ryan Libbey, was first approached to star in Beyond Chelsea and this makes so much sense. Remember when Binky, Louise and Rosie shared some pics of them reuniting a few months back? We had an inkling they were cooking up some sort of new series.

Of course we love that Lucy is now part of the show but it would have been fab to see Louise back on our screens as well.

'She wasn't available during the filming dates due to being booked on another project so had to make the tough decision not to take part,' a source told The Daily Mail. 'She supports Beyond Chelsea and is looking forward to the series airing this week.'

Perhaps Louise will feature in a scene here and there as all the girlies are still pals and we already have a feeling some of their former co-stars are set to appear...

Lucy can't exactly film a reality TV show about her life and not have a moment or two with li'l sis Tiff Watson now, can she?
