Made in Chelsea favourite Olivia Bentley, who is currently taking a break from the show, has gone Instagram official with her new boyfriend Rory McIvor.

The reality star posted a photograph of her kissing her new man's cheek in a Chelsea lunch spot and captioned the picture with a shamrock emoji. No prizes for guessing where Rory is from...

The Irish investment banker, who works at Ruffer LLP, appears to be friends with a few of MIC's usual suspects including former cast member and ex-girlfriend of Julius Cowdrey, Georgia Salamat. Although it sounds like they were set up by a mutual friend and pilates instructor called Cat, who commented 'call me cupid' on Liv's post.

Not only that, but Rory is also a close friend of Jeremy Clarkson's daughter, Emily Clarkson, and even attended her son Arlo's christening last September.

Liv, who was last seen on Made in Chelsea: Sydney and is bound to return next series, took some time off from the E4 show following her break up with Tristan Phipps. The couple had an on-again-off-again relationship for three years and many of their lowest moments played out on screen.

When they ultimately decided to part ways last June, just before the Corsica summer series, they struggled to come to terms with being single while still in each other's company. Nowhere was this more obvious than in Sydney, when Tristan started seeing Lauren Sintes again. Lauren threw him a birthday party on a boat and they kissed in front of Liv, prompting Liv to admit she was struggling to be around her ex.

However, it looks like her break from the show has paid off and she's found herself a new boyfriend. Of course, her SW3 pals were quick to express their excitement on her Instagram post, with Ruby Adler writing, 'I'm crying!!!!!', Tabitha Willett writing, 'hard launch' and Tina Stinnes commenting a heart emoji.
