She's one of the longest serving cast members of Made in Chelsea - joining the show way back in 2016 - and even taken a short break from SW3, but that doesn't mean that Olivia Bentley has faded into the background. On the contrary, every series Liv is consistently a main character, bringing drama, sexy innuendos and dating advice to the fore.

Olivia Bentley entered the scene as a nude photographer and has transformed into a full-blown, champagne sipping, ‘dahling’ Made In Chelsea-ite we can’t get enough of.

That's why we've done a deep dive into Olivia Bentley - honestly it was our pleasure - and found all the answers to the questions you're asking about her.

Following a career as a nude photographer, after joining Made in Chelsea, Olivia Bentley began to embrace the reality star/influencer lifestyle.

Liv claims to be the great-great-great granddaughter of the founder of Bentley Motors, however the brand has denied this, which is pretty hurtful if she is actually a family member.

Yes. Olivia Bentley has been candid about her struggle with hair loss, and even spoke about it with Grazia.

'I was only ever self-conscious about it when I was younger,’ she says. ‘And then through the years, I sort of just got on with it and sort of accepted it. But when I was younger, it was harder because I remember having boyfriends. And they'd say like comments or I’d always be clipping in extensions.’

What reality shows as Olivia Bentley appeared on?

In addition to Made in Chelsea, in 2020 Olivia Bentley appeared on Celebs Go Dating, seeing the wisdom of Paul C Brunson and Anna Williamson when it came to relationships.

Unfortunately she didn't find her match and was forced to return to the Made in Chelsea pool to date.

Who is Olivia Bentley dating?

Across her seven years on Made in Chelsea, Olivia Bentley has been linked to a number of handsome men. But now she has found love away from the cameras, dating investment banker Rory McIvor.

Olivia Bentley and Rory McIvor

It is not clear exactly when Olivia and Rory started dating but she went public with him on Instagram in May 2024.

It appears that they were set up by a mutual friend, a Pilates instructor named Cat.

Cat commented on underneath a post of the couple, ‘call me cupid’ before it was removed from Liv’s page.

Olivia Bentley and David 'Temps' Templeton

Olivia Bentley and David 'Temps' Templer are currently seeing how things go having recently moved from friends to lovers.

Whilst Liv admits to having doubts about things, Temps seems besotted with her.

Oliva Bentley and Tristan Phipps

Ah Olivia Bentley and Tristan Phipps! We were really rooting for those two crazy kids, but earlier this year they called it quits - and for good this time. They have both since moved on with Tristan dating Made in Chelsea newbie Lauren Sintes and Liv moving on off-screen with a man called Rory McIver. However, it looks like both of them are now single again.

Tristan, for his part, has appeared on series 13 of Celebs Go Dating. He spoke about his break up with Liv on the show and 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, something didn't fit when it came to how we communicated our feelings to each other.'

Olivia Bentley and Digby Edgley

Prior to Tristan Phipps, Olivia Bentley was dating fellow co-star Digby Edgley and they were very much in love (except when they, ahem, weren't: this was very much an on-off affair). However, things move fast in the borough of Chelsea, and the couple weren't able to make it last.

Olivia Bentley and Fredrik Ferrier

Olivia Bentley previously dating Fredrik Ferrier. However, Fred crossed Liv's boundaries by texting his friends about Mimi Bouchard saying 'Who is that girl, she's cute?' Uh oh.

Despite a messy break-up the pair remained amicable, some may even say friends...

Olivia Bentley and Francis Boulle

When she first joined Made in Chelsea, Olivia Bentley began dating Francis Boulle, but things disintegrated into baring blue ticks on Whatsapp and nothingness. Classic!

Olivia Bentley and Sam Thompson

Remember when Olivia Bentley ruffled Tiffany Watson's feathers in series 11 by announcing that she used to sleep with Sam Thompson - Tiff's then bf. As she aptly put it, 'we used to bonk!'

Olivia Bentley and Demi Sims

Olivia Bentley was also previously linked to TOWIE's Demi Sims. That was, of course, before the coronavirus pandemic happened.

At the time she told Hello! Magazine, 'I met this girl while I was out with friends and she invited me for a drink. Everyone is so quick to say no [to this kind of a dalliance], so I thought I'd just see. I decided it wasn't for me and that I'm not that way inclined.'

Olivia Bentley and Joshua Ritchie

Josh Ritchie starred on Celebs Go Dating at the same time as Olivia Bentley and the pair - who were friends before the show - were romantically linked.

Liv was quick to shut down those rumours at the time though telling Grazia, 'Obviously now I'm not dating anyone because I'm stuck in my house for three months. Yeah, we do like each other. I don't really know how to explain it - I don't personally think we will end up in a relationship together.’

Which Made in Chelsea cast members is Olivia Bentley friends with?

Olivia Bentley and Julius Cowdrey

Olivia Bentley and Julius Cowdrey used to be inseparable (and Julius was first introduced to the wonderful world of Chelsea by Liv) but things have since turned incredibly sour. Julius previously said mean stuff about Liv and hinted that she was 'easy' (NOT OKAY).

By season 21 however, the pair had seemingly squashed all their issues. They are not exactly best friends but they are not enemies anymore either.

Olivia Bentley and Verity Bowditch

Going in the opposite direction is Olivia Bentley's friendship with Verity Bowditch. Previously the pair were practically enemies, competing over Tristan Phipps, but now all seems well between them and Liv regularly posts gushing tributes to her pal on Instagram.

Olivia Bentley and Miles Nazaire

Olivia Bentley and Miles Nazaire have been friends for years. Despite persistent rumours of them being a couple, Olivia has always maintained that they're just really good friends.

What's Olivia's Instagram?

It's @oliviabentleyk and is a glorious mix of face masks, sassy quotes and OOTDS. Get following for inspo a-plenty.
