I watched a bit of their series last night and felt really quite envious afterwards and am not usually like that.
They are both extremely wealthy, raised with money, young, good looking, healthy, big families, the best of everything in life.

They seem lovely, some people really do get it all though don’t they!

How so?

these people aren’t our close friends - we can make honest assessments

Commenting on someones appearance is shitty.

Only treating people you consider your close friends decently is shitty.

Thinking you can "honestly assess" the sexuality of a person who you dont know is shitty.

The implication of your honest assessment of someone's sexuality as a negative is shitty.

I felt envious of their nice house but that was it. Felt really sorry for Jamie in how he spoke about his childhood, boarding school, bulimia etc. Of course many people have it far worse but his mum came across really cold I thought. Sad

I saw them at a service station and had no idea who they were. Must have been noticeable though, as commented to my eldest that the really blond bloke had a face like thunder. At which point she advised me who they were - I was still none the wiser!

Thanks op, watching it now

He is at least bi 😩😩😩

Still, good for them. They take every opportunity that comes at them, and why not 🤷‍♀️

I’ve seen him up close and he’s not good looking - very plain

and yes i would say he’s gay

Edited

“Very plain”
seriously?
which one of the Brontë sisters are you?

I briefly met Jamie about 10 years ago, he was doing some promotional material for his candy kittens sweets (to be fair he has made a big success out of them) he was of course younger than but thought he was very in love with himself but I'd say most guys at the age he was with money, fame and fairly good looking probably are 🤣
However he does seem to have built on made in Chelsea and him and Sophie have done well to get themselves a show on Disney+.

Things are definitely easier with family money and support behind you but there's plenty of people with that who still fail at their ventures whereas Jamie seems to have made the best of the opportunities he has been given so good on him

mumofoneAloneandwell · 09/04/2026 22:53

These london visuals are making the show worth watching as well - love it

but they both tell you they are crippled with anxiety.

by the time I got to the end, I thought Sophie could be here writing threads 😂

she wouldn’t let anyone kiss the baby, pretty much called him useless and wouldn’t really let him help with their son. Then you have him there really trying but being told his parenting is not good enough. Will need to build up looking after him an hr at a time

I didn’t think there was anything to be envious about, their interactions with each other are awkward & she is horrible to him all the time. I thought it was just a put on thing for social media but its not

They’re wealthy but not good looking! He looks like Ellen Degeneres.

swingingbytheseat · 09/04/2026 23:20

He’s nice and funny but definitely not a grown up yet.
i would agree he seems a bit gay

I’m not up to her having had the baby yet

I actually now feel really sorry for him seeing the mum, they looked through the photo album and looking at the picture of the nanny and the mum saying ‘Oh she was fabulous, we’d be in Miami or wherever and she’d fly Jamie out to wherever we were if we wanted’ that and him being sent away at such a young age to boarding school 😔 I don’t know how you could do that to a little child

No I don’t think he’s good looking tbh, I’ve never liked blonde guys, but they’re young, healthy, rich

I like them. I didn’t follow them until recently and assumed he was gay too. I thought he was her mate. But I didn’t watch made in Chelsea

BlueEyedBogWitch · 09/04/2026 23:34

Jamie Laing. The first celebrity to ‘go in’.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 09/04/2026 23:36

I wouldn’t say good looking. Just two talentless people who got lucky.

Didn’t know they were his. That’s cool!

He is cheerful and always seems very positive. Can’t say attractive though… the super bleachy blonde hair is giving Donald T.

Eggybreadwithnuts · 09/04/2026 23:40

I dont think he's good looking....

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 09/04/2026 23:40

And why is he such a cock on everything he appears on?

drippingsap · 09/04/2026 23:41

He isn’t good looking but seems nice. She’s overdoing the fillers & botox which isn’t my idea of good looking.

drippingsap · 09/04/2026 23:42

Not interested in the show but their kitchen looks lovely, saw it in a spread.
