Seasons come and go, characters change, but one thing’s for sure on Made In Chelsea, there’s always guaranteed drama and long-term cast member Tristan Phipps has always brought plenty of the stuff.
Between his on and off relationship with Liv Bentley, his arguments with Reza Amiri-Garroussi or his knack for having drinks thrown at him, Tristan has had a fairly colourful time on the E4 show.
Before he found love with Jules Pollard on the show (more on that later), Tristan appeared on series 13 of Celebs Go Dating in a bid to find love with a 'normal' person. On the show, he spoke about his relationship with former co-star and ex-girlfriend Liv. He said, 'It was really hard, we broke up, twice or three times in that period, and we'd always end up back together. There was never any cheating or scandals or anything. It was just that something didn't fit when it came to how we communicated our feelings to each other.'
Last season was just as dramatic for Tristan because he ended things with Made in Bondi's Molly Paradice and his on-again off-again relationship with Julia Pollard started up again, despite them promising not to flirt with each other anymore.
Now that season 29 of Made in Chelsea is in full swing, Jules and Tristan are in a happy, committed relationship. No more games! No more kissing other people and liking other people's Instagram pictures. They even went on a double date with both their mums and have been talking about starting a family together.
That's enough catching up. Here's everything else you need to know about Chelsea's favourite bird watcher.

In 2023, Tristan and his on-off (on-off, on-off...) girlfriend Liv called it quits and for good following a rocky relationship. She announced the news via Instagram saying, 'It ended very amicably and I do wish him all the best.'
Tristan also previously dated another MIC costar, Verity Bowditch - until she broke up with him and caused an almighty argument at the dinner table that is - as well as 2018 Love Island star Laura Crane for nine months from late 2018.
Going back to the very beginning, Tristan was originally introduced on MIC as Ella Wills' ex.
Following his break up from Liv on Made in Chelsea, Tristan Phipps went on a date with Yasmine Zweegers, but things didn't seem to work out for them after she decided that Sam Prince was the boy for her (I wonder how that worked out?).
After that Tristan went toe-to-toe with his BFF and flatmate Harvey Armstrong for the affections of MIC newbie Lauren Sintes, but things didn't seem to end well between the two of them after Tristan kissed another girl in Raffles.
Cut to Made in Chelsea: Sydney and Lauren and Tristan were over and he briefly dated Australian Isabella Cicero. He then dated Made in Bondi's Molly Paradice before reportedly circling back to Jules.
