Made In Chelsea season 28 is in full swing, and we've obviously been keeping tabs on the stars of our favourite reality show. And someone who's got more than their fair share of life updates is Emily Blackwell - who revealed in September she's expecting her first child with her fiancé Jordan Oldershaw. Sharing the exciting news on Instagram, Emily shared a picture of her holding a pregnancy test with Jordan and captioned the post 'It’s giving Mum and Dad. All we’ve ever dreamed of and more.'

This comes just a month after she announced she was engaged to her boyfriend of two years Jordan Alexander! Another Made in Chelsea baby? We can't wait!

But who exactly is the newly engaged Emily Blackwell? And who has she previously dated? Here's everything you need to know about the reality star, all in one place...

When did Emily Blackwell join Made in Chelsea?

The reality star joined the show during series 12 back in 2016, when she was initially tipped to be a love interest for Alex Mytton, having met the love lothario through mutual friends.

How old is Emily Blackwell?

Emily was born on November 20, 1996 - which, if you were wondering, makes her a fiery Scorpio, although compared to the rest of the Made in Chelsea cast she seems pretty calm. She's currently 28 years old, turning 29 this year.

What does Emily Blackwell do?

Back when she first joined the Chelsea gang - despite actually growing up in Surrey - Emily was working as a model. Nowadays, as well as being one of our favourite reality stars, she works as an influencer, creating content on YouTube and Instagram!

Emily is also the director of her own lingerie company, UYC London, as well as the co-host of her podcast Mother Half.

Has Emily Blackwell got a podcast?

Emily and her mum Rachel are just one Made in Chelsea duo who sit behind the mics as they bring you Mother Half!

Each week on the podcast, Emily, Rachel and their occasional special guest discuss listeners' dilemmas whilst dishing on their own relationship and what Emily was like growing up.

The official synopsis reads, 'In this pod, you'll meet the real Emily Blackwell, (who's not as posh as you might think) and discover a rather unique mother/daughter relationship. Each week, Emily advises Rach on how to manage her social media profile, Rachel discloses what Emily was really like growing up and they don't hold back when they answer your dilemmas. The bond is there but the boundaries aren't so expect warm, wise, funny and explicit chat.'

Who is Emily Blackwell dating?

Emily went 'Instagram official' with her now-fiance Jordan Alexander - who is the managing director of a recruitment company - back in August 2022, and since then she's been regularly sharing loved up snaps of the two of them, including, of course, pictures from their engagement in August.

Jordan has made a few cameo appearances on Made in Chelsea - with the genetically-blessed pair talking about their plans to move in together, which they eventually did.

Many of Emily Blackwell's past relationships have played out onscreen for MIC fans to see. First introduced as Alex Mytton's potential love interest, Emily later went on to date co-star Harvey Armstrong. The pair - who moved in together during lockdown - faced some public problems on the show. While Harvey was seemingly more interested in partying, Emily expressed she was ready to settle down.

Their relationship came to a rocky end in 2021, when Emily discovered Harvey had cheated on her. She quickly called off the relationship, bringing to an end their two year romance.

Whilst Emily's best friend - Miles Nazaire - previously revealed that he had romantic feelings for her, nothing ever happened between the two of them.

In the past, Emily dated The Only Way Is Essex's Tom Pearce. It was also previously rumoured that she was dating Love Island’s Chris Hughes, after he was spotted hanging out with some of the Chelsea lot.

Who is Emily Blackwell friends with?

Emily entered Made in Chelsea as Jessica Woodley's best friend, but since Jessica left the show she's become close with Miles and Ruby Adler. Outside of the show, she is also pals with Lottie Moss.

In more recent series, Emily has been spending lots of time with Yasmine Zweegers, who joined the show in 2022.

Does Emily Blackwell have YouTube?

As of 2020, Emily has her own channel, 'Emily Blackwell'. If watching her one night a week on your screen is not enough and you want to see more of her glamorous life (including luxurious trips, clothing hauls and cast shenanigans), you can subscribe to her channel.
