Tbf I don’t think it’s necessarily about the money, it’s more about a particular mindset.

Maeva’s dad is a businessman in publishing and is well off. Her mother seems to be a socialite who splits her time between mooching around Paris and holidaying near the alps.

maeva comes from money and her parents would likely have always financially supported her anyway, but you can tell she’s grown up with a mindset to do the same thing as her mother - be as pretty as possible, find well off businessman to marry to provide money and social status, live near capital city and spend half the year holidaying. Have enough children to seal the deal but not so many that it ruins your figure - so maybe one then.


Miles is half French half british. I’m not 100% sure where he was brought up but I believe he and his sister, Jess, grew up splitting time between Notting Hill and Les Issambres.

his (French) dad started a school in London in 2011 based in W1 called Artpeggios. Miles would’ve been about 16 then

miles also went to the Brit school in Croydon.

his mother (Victoria) is a sculptor and I (think) she currently lives in France.

Miles went to Brit school. Does he have any acting or musical talent?

I only asked about Miles because he always refers to himself as a Chelsea boy, but he's not even from Chelsea 🤦
 
Miles putting his “eggs in one basket” with some chick in Australia - the guy seriously has issues. The only reason he’s “invested” in this girl is because she’s “safe” - realistically there’s minimal chance of a relationship progressing while one of them is on the other side of the world, so shes “safe” in the sense that he knows she’s always at arms length but he can have some semblance of a romantic relationship by texting her/calling her etc

Liv has been a right witch in the past but James is delusional, Maeva has stirred all this tit and then played the victim, if its not a storyline then it's pathetic

Yeh he’s coming across as really pathetic.

not a huge fan of Tristan but he looks genuinely upset and confused over the whole situation.

maeva and james together is a weird toxic mix.

Does anyone know where Joel and Robbie were on holiday? Sounds like a horrible experience they had at whichever bar they went to
 
Watching ep 5 and it's really hard seeing Tristan tear up very visibly in front of James. There was zero tact with what he said and i hope Tristan doesn't give him the time of the day if James ever does need him. I have liked both Maeva and James much more than Tristan in previous series but they have been massive arseholes the past few eps.
 
James is just being cruel. I don't know why Maeva gets off on this, but I'd be questioning my partner's character if he can act sooo cold to a friend who has done nothing to him. Friendships don't last forever but I can't imagine saying that to someone.

Also when they were comforting Izzy.....'you're the sweetest girl', 'you're drop dead gorgeous' - I'm sorry but those compliments are so lame I'd be pissed off if those are the only things that someone could tell me :ROFLMAO:
I feel bad for Izzy, she's clearly very young and still trying to figure out who she is, she just needs someone her own age really, rather than older guys who have dated a ton of girls before and are in no rush to commit to a relationship.

Bless Tristan tbh. He clearly really loved James and valued his friendship. Got spoken to like tit at the polo but still was happy to meet again in hopes of reconciliation, only for James to double down and be extremely harsh and not give a duck. Poor Tristan, watching him be upset was horrible. You can tell that really hurt.

James needs to be careful he doesn’t cut EVERYONE off and end up isolated with Maeva. Maeva doesn’t have any friends and I get she moved to a new country and all but she also has been quite vicious as we know. I feel like they almost bond over the fact they hate everyone. Not a good combo.

id be VERY concerned if the man I was having a baby with, was so fickle, lacking in character, lacking in empathy and just outright cruel to someone he’d considered a friend for years.

the only way I can make sense of what’s going on (because this whole drama is just so bizarre):

Maeva was a big character and let’s face it, a bit of a cow. Both these things rubber Liv up the wrong way.

Tristan was out with James and probably a bit of a bad influence and encouraging him to cheat. Maeva wasn’t wrong when she said Tristan was always at the centre of drama and he’s shown himself to be perfectly happy to cover up and lie for his friends (e.g. Harvey).

Tristan then presumably told Liv about said cheating, Liv proceeded to take great delight in being cruel to Maeva about it (confronting her in that club scene).

maeva therefore hates Tristan for being there when James cheated and partially blames him, as it’s easier to direct her anger at him than the guy who she is pregnant with and is her meal ticket fiancé.

James potentially feels betrayed that Tristan let the word get out but, as other people said on the show, he wasn’t even being subtle when he cheated. I think it’s more likely that he feels he was encouraged by Tristan to cheat and is projecting onto him; instead of feeling guilty and angry at himself, he’s directing it towards Tristan.

Maeva is probably spinning James’ reaction in her head as a positive - he’s just being protective of her and “caring” about her feelings. She seems to be ignoring the nastiness coming out.

maybe that’s all a bit of a stretch but the vindictiveness and cruelty of James’ attitude towards Tristan just doesn’t make sense at face value. Something more is going on here.

James could’ve said he just didn’t feel close to Tristan and didn’t feel a friendship was there anymore - but he stuck the knife in when he was telling Tristan he wasn’t invited to the wedding, when he casually disregarded years of friendship. He knew he was hurting him and It was very unpleasant to watch unfold.

this isn’t the first time James has thrown a friend under the bus either, and he’s definitely been happy to throw non-friends under the bus. He’s really shown himself to be a bit of a spineless, nasty coward. Not a nice couple at all.
 
It’s funny the different conclusions people take from this show….

I honestly think Tristan and Olivia are full of tit, absolutely narcissists with such high opinions of theirselves.

The expression “one doth protest too much” springs to mind, lavish spreads in magazines, alluding to the best sex life ever and this awful judgemental stance they take on anyone and everyone.

I think reading between the lines (which is vital if you’re wanting more than the crappy and over dramatised storylines) James has said we were cast buddies, we had some good time while shooting when it was all about clubbing and fun but I now have a real job, I’m about to become a dad and get married and I’ve basically grown up!

I think you’re more likely to find the true friendship groups on Insta stories when they are not filming and interestingly I’ve never seen Tristan or James tag each other on anything just hanging out away from camera.

I agree, I think Tristan and Liv are awful. I get the sense Tristan resents James moving on and growing up, and blames maeva. In an august interview he spoke about how surprised it was that they had moved so fast, because James was a “party” animal when they first met 6 years ago. They both joined MIC in 2018, Since they’ve known each other from before they joined MIC, I don’t think it’s correct to say they were just cast mates. Neither of them have referred to the other as simply being a cast mate to my knowledge, and James agreed they’d been close before IIRC.

Tristan Phipps 'surprised' at MIC pal James’ proposal to Maeva

EXCLUSIVE: Made in Chelsea favourites Tristan Phipps and Liv Bentley have their say on Maeva D'Ascanio and James Taylor's shock proposal and 'surprising' baby announcement
www.ok.co.uk www.ok.co.uk

but “real” friends or just “cast mates” he was cruel and seemed to take great delight in sticking the knife in, it still doesn’t look good. There’s no need to be unkind to anyone like that, regardless of how close a friendship you had. Tristan was visibly upset but James kept going on unnecessarily.

This isn’t the first time James has gotten into a feud with a former bestie - he also fell out with Miles. he backstabbed Miles by telling a girl he was seeing, that he was using her. He then kissed and slept with Maeva behind Miles’ back. Pretty effing cruel. He has form for this sort of behaviour.

Is it any wonder she doesn’t have any friends 😂
