Made in Chelsea is back - and a couple of faces have returned. After a year long break,Miles Nazaire returned last night to stir up some drama. But, perhaps more surprising was the return of Julius Cowdrey (who got into a bit of an argument with Liv Bentley). Julius hasn’t been on the show since 2017 - when he left to pursue his music career - so, if you need a bit of a refresher, here’s what you need to know about the reality star.
Who is Julius Cowdrey?
Julius is a singer-songwriter, who discovered passion for music while singing in the Tonbridge School choir. He began songwriting at the age of 16, and released his first track 7 Roads (I See You) in 2016. Julius was on Made In Chelsea for 12 months before quitting the show to focus on his singing. At the time, he was also known for dating co-star Ella Wills, but alas they are no longer together.
Julius comes from a cricketing dynasty with his father Chris and grandfather, life peer, Colin Cowdrey, both captaining England. He also has a twin brother called Fabian, who also plays cricket.
Wait, Julius Cowdrey was on The Voice?
Yep, what a reality TV crossover. Julius auditioned for the show last year, where he performed his own original song Take Me Home. While sadly none of the judges turned for him, Meghan Trainor did say he had a ‘beautiful voice’. But then if he did progress on The Voice, he probably wouldn't be back on Made In Chelsea, so it isn't all bad.
How old is Julius Cowdrey?
He was born on January 30 1993, by our calculations making him 28.
What’s Julius Cowdrey’s Instagram?
You can follow him on @jlcowdrey - expect lots of very suave outfit pics and lots of singing videos.

9 Made In Chelsea Couples You Had Completely Forgotten Were Together
1. Jamie Laing and Louise Thompson
Remember when Jamie and Louise dated (much to Spencer's dismay) in 2012. Louise then left Jamie for Spencer, causing a very traumatic love triangle indeed. Poor Jamie.
2. Binky Felstead and Jamie Laing
Binks may be loving life with baby India, but remember when she dated Jamie Laing?!? Yes, we forgot too. After years of friendship, the two found it difficult to transition to an actual relationship, so decided to call it a day.
3. Lucy Watson and Jamie Laing
Jamie and Lucy were together for a bit and would even walk their dogs together. Not one for holding back, Lucy Watson has called the show 'incestuous' and she 'no longer wants to waste time with people like Jamie and Proudlock'. BURN.
4. Lucy Watson and Proudlock
Ah yes, Lucy and Proudlock. They were the most swoon-worthy couple in SW3... oh, until Lucy found out that Proudlock was dating other women.
5. Ollie Locke and Chloe Green
Topshop Heiress Chloe Green joined the MIC lot in 2011 to date Ollie Locke. Ollie had previously dated Gabby who he broke up with to explore his feelings for men, only to then end up with another woman. It did not go down well...
6. Rosie Fortescue and Hugo Taylor
When Hugo was dating Millie Mackintosh in the show, he hooked up with her best friend Rosie. Millie then raised her glass to a party full of guests and said 'cheers to friendship'.
7. Spencer Matthews and Lucy Watson
Spenny took Lucy to Paris in 2013 and we almost believed he had given up his womanising ways. We were wrong and he admitted to cheating on Lucy with several women. Sigh.
8. Spencer Matthews and Louise Thompson
Louise joined the show as Spencer's (very despairing) girlfriend. Spencer being Spencer, couldn't stay faithful and resulted in a fair few teary scenes between the pair.
9. Alex Mytton and Binky Felstead
Binky and Alex were love's young dream (kinda) for two years until his constant cheating became unforgivable. It all worked out well though as she now has the cutest little baby girl with JP.
