When Yasmine Zweegers and Sam Prince broke up for the hundredth time last season, Arman Pouladian-Kari swooped in to take his shot. For a while (probably two weeks in real time) he seemed like a perfect replacement: cool, calm and a proud owner of a driver's licence.

Sadly, his romance with Yas was not meant to be, but with season 30 of Made in Chelsea landing on our screens on 15 September, Arman is here to stay. He is one of the show's new full-time cast members so fans of Arman and his fancy cars can expect to see much more of him.

But who is he? What does he do for work? And who are his friends in the group? Here's everything you need to know.

Who is Arman Pouladian-Kari?

When he's not building his Instagram following as a reality star, Arman works as one half of the DJ duo Remedy and can often be found partying in Mykonos, St Tropez or London. According to his Linkedin, he also works as head of partnerships in solar energy.

He grew up in Surrey but is of proud Iranian heritage and speaks fluent Farsi. He went to Warwick University.

How old is Arman Pouladian-Kari?

Arman is 26 years old.

Who is Arman Pouladian-Kari friends with from Made in Chelsea?

Arman currently lives in London with fellow newcomer Olly Claxton-Newman. He was first introduced to the cast through Yas and has since been linked to Freddy Knatchbull's ex-girlfriend Beks Collins, but we'll have to wait for the new series to drop to find out what he's been up to since April.

He might be new on the scene, but Arman is already a fan favourite thanks to his showdown with Sam at the end of season 29. There is even a Reddit thread dedicated to the subject called, 'Sam Prince is RATTLED.'

Speaking about Yas at the end of season party, Arman said, 'What's the situation here? Do you want to get back with her?' And Sam replied, 'I can tell you something, I wouldn't be telling the DJ. You work here. I wouldn't be telling you f**k all.'

Sam, who can't drive, then doubled down and said, 'I wouldn't be telling anything to her chauffeur' and Arman replied, 'Good one mate. She loves my car more than yours.' A perfect Made in Chelsea comeback.

Can we expect more of this in series 30? It sounds like it. 'I do like to be the centre of attention,' Arman says. 'I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.'
