Made In Chelsea: Are Julia Pollard And Tristan Phipps dating?

If you’ve been watching series 28 of Made in Chelsea, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps’ relationship is over. Because in episode three Tristan apologised for leading Julia – formerly known as Muffin – on, and had started seeing Molly Paradice from Made in Bondi. Since then, the pair’s flirting has been kept to a minimum (in as much as Tristan Phipps could never not flirt with a girl) and they've both supposedly exploring other options. Or have they?

Now, when you’re chronically online and obsessed with Made in Chelsea like us and enjoy spending your spare time viewing the TikToks and Instagram reels of the cast members you discover things. Things like the very exclusive, very secret gossip that Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps are, in fact, dating! According to our eagle-eyed investigations, the pair have seemingly spent a very cosy weekend in Bath together earlier this month.

Although Tristan was careful enough not to show Julia’s face on his Instagram reel and Julia didn’t make it clear that she was there with Tristan, it was pretty obvious that the pair were there together. We love to see it!

So naturally, when Grazia bumped into Tristan Phipps's BFF and flatmate Harvey Armstrong at the launch of Glide at Battersea Power Station we had to ask him if the rumours that Julia and Tristan are back together were true.

At first all he told us was, 'All should be revealed by the end of the season' but when we pressed a little bit harder he admitted, 'I can confirm that your detective work is correct. There you go!'

So, there you have it: Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps have rekindled their romance! But let’s go back to the beginning because there’s lots to unpick here...

When did Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps start dating?

Julia joined the cast of Made in Chelsea last series – for series 27 – and was introduced as the BFF of Jasmine Saunders and blind date of Tristan Phipps, as set up by Ruby Adler. And it wasn’t long before the sparks started flying.

Why did Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps break up?

Unfortunately though, it all came to end just weeks later when Julia had a drunken kiss with Sam Vanderpump. Tristan was annoyed and the pair decided to stop seeing each other. Tristan then headed to Australia with fellow lothario Miles Nazaire and began dating Molly Paradice, while Julia started seeing Angus Findlay.

When did Julia Pollard and Tristan Phipps get back together?

Although Harvey admitted that 'All should be revealed by the end of the season,' the latest episode of Made in Chelsea saw Julia growing closer to Love Island's Casey O'Gorman. So as to when or how Julia and Tristan rekindle their spark, we’ll have to wait to find out!
