When it comes to taking part in a reality TV show, be it Made in Chelsea, Love Island or anything in between, there are always going to be scenes you don't want to film and people you don't want to look at, let alone converse with on camera.

Here at heat HQ we can't even imagine how frustrating or tedious it must be to film, often several times, moments that you hated or have to be on screen with your mortal enemy.

Well, according to a former Made in Chelsea star, that's not even the worst of it. Cheska Hull, who was on the show back in the MIC golden age alongside the likes of Binky Felstead and Spencer Matthews, recently opened up about some of her less than enjoyable experiences on the reality TV show.

As a guest on the No Filter Zone podcast, Cheska spoke about THAT dreaded dinner party scene where Victoria Baker-Harber called her a 'fat turkey' and it's still as awful now as it was back then.

'There is a scene when another cast member called me an 'effing fat turkey,' and it just... I couldn't. This person wasn't being very nice to me for quite a long time off camera anyway,' Cheska confessed. 'But to say that on camera, a woman to another woman, it was just so embarrassing and humiliating.'

'I tried to get up because I just wanted to leave, you know when you just want to run? You're just humiliated,' Cheska went on and who wouldn't want to remove themselves from that situation immediately?

'There were 20 people around the table, then the room was full of cameramen, producers, sound men, all of that going on and I just thought, "Oh my God, I've got to get out of here, I've got to get out," and I tried to get up and there was a producer under the table holding my legs down and she was saying, "No, fight back."'

Yep, you read that correctly, somebody HELD Cheska in place to stop her from leaving the dinner party and this may well be the most wild story we have heard from a former MIC cast member.

Cheska also revealed that moving back to Devon was the 'best thing she ever did' and is currently living her best life on the south coast.

She also attended fellow former MIC star, Fran Newman-Young's wedding in Spain last week which we are only mildly jealous about.
