The trio of women let the cameras follow them again as they try to find (or keep) love, look after their kids and build businesses
Made in Chelsea breakout stars Binky Felstead, Lucy Watson and Rosie Fortescue are returning to E4 for a second series of Beyond Chelsea.
And this time around viewers will follow the three women, now in their mid-thirties, as they balance motherhood, family life and relationships, while running businesses and navigating life in the public eye.
‌
The two-part fly on the wall spin-off, to air on E4 later this year, will give viewers more information about Binky's mum's challenges with MS (multiple sclerosis). The audience will also find out whether Rosie has had any success with finding a partner, after last time around she decided she was ready to welcome romance back into her life, with Binky acting as wing woman.
‌
The cameras also follow as Lucy moves into her new home mid-development while Binky takes on yet another new business venture, with all three trying to balance motherhood, family life and relationships.
Production boss Helen Kruger Bratt told the Mirror that other Made in Chelsea favourites would also pop up. 'The love for Made in Chelsea, and the franchise as a whole, just keeps growing,' she told the Mirror. 'Every series brings in new fans, while longtime viewers stay closely connected to the lives of our brilliant cast.
'With Beyond Chelsea, we've loved reconnecting with some of MIC's most iconic OGs in a way we've never done before. Featuring these three amazing women, and guest appearances from other ex-MIC favourites, this second series promises to be even more revealing, emotional, and hilarious.'
Channel 4 Senior Commissioning Editor Clemency Green added: 'Binky, Lucy and Rosie's lives are chaotic and yet they still find time to allow the cameras back in. The Made in Chelsea fans are going to love seeing what they have been up to this past year, catching up on the gang as they share the ups and downs of their lives.'
Main series Made in Chelsea will also be back on E4 for a 29th run. The BAFTA award-winning show, which first launched in 201, has since notched up a staggering 332 episodes. This time some of the cast head off to a luxury resort in Thailand - where they are joined by a new faces who are 'set to cause a stir'.
In January, Binky hinted the show would be back with more appearances from some of the original cast from when the show started 14 years ago. "We only had time to do two episodes last year and to test people's interest... which was off the charts and overwhelmingly positive," she said. "Since then we've had 3/4 of the OG's reach out who want to be part of the next phase - all very exciting."
