Made In Chelsea: Mallorca is, as you'd expect, chockablock with sun and sex ... but what about the parents? With the five-part spin-off series on all this week daily at 9pm on E4, the truly curious among us would like to know a little bit more about the various family trees that these golden, sun-kissed apples presumably didn't fall that far from. Just how did these fabulously glam guys and gals get made in the first place? Worry not, MIC stans, we've got you covered.
James Taylor
There was a time when young James would brag to the girls of SW3 about his private plane and home spa at any chance he could. What we do know about James' parents and their fortune is that they do have their own family business. The company is linked to sales engineering and there is rumours that he is set to take over.
Maeva D’Ascanio
Maeva's tres chic French parents, Corinne and Thierry, divide their time between Paris and the Alps. Monsieur D'Ascanio is, per his daughter, a bigwig businessman in the publishing world, more than happy to get l'addition when catching up with his daughter and her hubby James – now gearing up to be parents themselves.
Olivia Bentley
Poppa Bentley, Kevin, apparently made his fortune by setting up The Bentley Group, a plumbing and fittings company, but the real money comes through mother Kate. The The 478-acre Burrow Farm Estate was left to her in 1978 by insurance boss David Palmer, grandfather of Olivia, and is rumoured to have been sold for £50m.
Julius Cowdrey
Singer-songwriter Julius comes from a cricketing dynasty with his father Chris and his late grandfather, who was a life peer, Colin Cowdrey both captaining England. His Swedish mother Christel nee Holst-Sande is a former model with professional jazz training who runs her own hospitality company and writes screenplays.
Tristan Phipps
Tristan's mum is Carrie Wicks. The Phipps clan is rolling in cash and Tristan’s mum has made her fortune through the hospitality industry, specifically in hotels. After nearly two decades climbing to the role of Operations Director at transatlantic hotel chain Firmdale Hotels, which has numerous properties in London and New York, Carrie moved back to South Africa (where Tristan was born and lived until he was two years old) to work for a small group of hotels called the Leeu collection in 2016. She appeared in one of Tristan's Instagram posts, as part of an ad for a jewellery company. He captioned the post: 'Let’s spread the love as far and wide as possible this year! I wanted to show my Mumsy just how special she is and how much I appreciate her, and everything she does for me. She’s such a rock in my life , and what better way to show than to gift her the most precious rock there is.'
