From last night's episode, it looks like Maeva D’Ascanio is going to be one of the main characters on this series of Made in Chelsea. And the drama started immediately. In the opening episode last night, it was revealed Maeva's relationship with her boyfriend, James Taylor, is hanging by a thread - as Maeva wants a break.

In very Chelsea style, the argument blew up during a double date, making things very awkward. Maeva had set-up her friend Paris Smith{ =nofollow}, with returning cast member Angus Findlay - but after the pair were introduced, she told everyone she didn't want to go on holiday with James and his family. But, speaking to Grazia, Maeva says she didn't intend to kick off - she just couldn't keep it in any longer.

'I guess being a part of the argument on the blind date was not expected,' she tells us. 'So it felt very uncomfortable. But I can't keep things for myself. I just had to spit it out, tell the truth, and not soak things up because I cannot do that. So, yeah, it felt very uncomfortable but when I have to say something, I say it.'

However, she does admit that she wishes she went on holiday with James and his family. 'At that time, I felt good not going on holiday with him and his family because I thought that it wasn't right for me to go because of [how I felt about] him,' she says, before adding, 'but I regretted it straightaway.'

In the preview, we see that Maeva has more scenes coming up with her ex-boyfriend, Miles Nazaire. How's filming with her ex been, particularly when she's going through a rough patch with James? 'Bloody hell, well, I can't say much about it,' she says. 'It's not very comfortable, and it's not appropriate.'

So, apart from some awkward encounters, what's coming up for Maeva in upcoming episodes? 'What I can say for the viewers about my storyline, is that it was really emotional,' she says. 'I've been through so many ups and downs that I got to the point where that was really complicated. It's pretty hard to say - it wasn't simple.'

Made in Chelsea continues next Monday at 9pm on E4.

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.

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.
