The new series of Made in Chelsea hasn't even started yet and we've already been teased with friendship feuds, cast refusing to film and people kissing people they definitely should NOT be kissing.
MIC: Mauritius will also introduce us to some fresh faces, including a former Love Islandstar and a racing car driver, who also happens to be a descendant of reality TV legend, Lisa Vanderpump. Honestly, only when writing about Made in Chelsea would we put together such a sentence.
As we wait patiently for the reality TV show to return (just a few more days, guys), it has come to our attention that Tristan Phipps and Lauren Sintés have only gone and unfollowed each other on social media and erm, WHAT?
Last we heard, the duo had more than enjoyed each other's company during the cast trip to Sydney and ended the series with their romance potentially be rekindled.
Tristan and Lauren enjoyed a cute flirt in the series finale of the Sydney season, with the former safari guide admitting that he didn't think his "story" with the American was over. Cue flirty eye contact and pinky promises that implied the book was open for them to start up the romance again.
However, it has come to light that the duo are no longer Instagram friends and sorry, but what the hell does that mean?
During an exclusive chat with heat, one of the newcomers, Sam Vanderpump, spilled some serious tea around his time on the show, revealing that we can expect some 'juicy' scenes and hinted at a potential romance. Could it possibly be with Lauren?
Did Sam come in all guns blazing and snatch Lauren away from Tristan?
Okay, maybe we are getting ahead of ourselves, but with Liv Bentley no longer a MIC fixture there's nothing that should be coming between Tristan and Lauren - so what gives?
Sam isn't the only potential spanner that could have been thrown into the Lauren x Tristan relationship as Tina Stinnes and Julia 'Muffin' Pollard are also joining the cast.
Tristan DID promise not to kiss any other chicas in Raffles but we know what the boys of King's Road are at like at keeping promises.
Hint: bloody awful.
