The cast of Made in Chelsea will soon be back on our screens and we'd like to thank E4 for once again single-handedly saving us all from f**king Mondays.

As per, the drama is set to be drama-ing once again – especially considering producers decided to chuck Love Island star Casey O'Gorman into the mix and ship the cast off to Antigua.

Said cast includes the downright lovely, Freddy Knatchbull...

Not only thatl, but his great grandfather's death was featured on an episode of The Crown, the 1st Earl of Mountbatten of Burma was killed in August 1979 by the IRA who secretly planted a bomb on his fishing boat. Wild.

Did we mention his dad is the CEO of Curzon Cinemas? Yay, free trips to the movies for life.

Oh and his half sisters also have pretty cool jobs; Daisy is the founder of fashion brand The Deck and Phoebe works in PR. Freddy also has a lil bro called Rocky who is studying at Edinburgh University.

What did David 'Temps' Templer say about Freddy Knatchbull?

Freddy is clearly here for a good time and Temps said as much when he chatted to heatworld about his co-star...

'There is a new kid who has just started called Freddy, he’s nineteen, he’s such a good energy.

'We will start a scene and they [the producers] will say ‘Let’s just let Freddy talk,’ because he comes out with the most ridiculous stuff.'

'He’s hilarious. I know I’ve done something embarrassing stuff with him but I just love his energy, he’s a young nineteen year old, fresh at everything, he just says dumb sh*t all the time,' Temps added.

Freddy gives us young Jamie Laing vibes and obvs we're here for that.

Is Freddy Knatchbull a royal?

Sort of, yes. He is the great grandson of Prince Philip’s uncle; we don't know what number in line that makes him for the throne, but it definitely makes the most royal cast member of MIC.

Was Freddy Knatchbull kidnapped?

While filming Made in Chelsea: Corsica, Freddy was reportedly abducted by five burly men and bundled into a 4x4.

A source told The Sun, "The cast were very worried... No one could get hold of him for ages.

"It was hugely worrying because he’s the youngest but it all ended up OK."

Does Freddy Knatchbull have Instagram?

Yep: @freddyknatchbull.
