    The Cheska,Binky and Ollie seasons were peak Made in Chelsea. Im sorry she had such a negative experience but I hope it brings her some joy knowing she entertained so many of us and have such good memories of that time when the show was at its best.

    I’ll never forget the “fat turkey” moment. Me and my housemates would sit down to watch MIC together, we called it ‘MIC Thursdays’, always laughing and gossiping about the show over some wine. When that scene aired we were gobsmacked and speechless. We never watched it in the same fun-loving way again. To this day, whenever I see Victoria, it’s all I can think about. I hope Cheska knows that yes it’s always used as a top moment or top argument scene etc on instagram and stuff but that’s because everyone thought of it as a so shocking, unjustified and an unforgivable action, not because people love to re-see it or think it was entertaining. The nation was team Cheska, she was always one of the warmest cast members, you just knew she was even without knowing her personally. I hope whenever she sees the scene, she knows it shocked the viewers and nobody thought “oh, great TV, can’t wait for more of that next episode”, we were outraged and didn’t understand why it was even able to air.

    Cheska was badly treated by the show...she was older and although beautiful, she did not have the artificial, adolescent anorexic kind of beauty worshipped by the show. She was cast as the very nice but bland friend of the group which was very sad as she was the most authentic. Good on Cheska for evolving and moving on

    She was so too nice and human for that show. I remember when she was called fat by Victoria (who honestly looks like she had an ED,) so absurd Cheska was never close to being remotely fat. I know the posh/private schools kids have a lot of anorexia. And I understood why after that TV moment, horrible xxx

    the revelations about made in chelsea are so interesting and I'm so impressed with Cheska. I'm a big fan of the show, but at the same time, i see why so many of the cast don't look back fondly on their time on the show and had very bad mental health effects from it. also talking about that scene with Victoria f*t shaming her, that was one of the worst scenes I've ever seen on tv and didn't understand why they kept that scene in. it's just horrendous and to be re-traumatized by it when it aired is such a shame. also the story about prince harry is so funny because I remember that always being part of write-ups about Cheska, that she once dated prince harry and it's so hilarious that she explains how such silly rumors like that come about. great interview!

    I loved watching Made in Chelsea in the beginning because the characters reminded me of people I'd known at uni. They called Chelsea people Sloanes back then which was officially short for Sloane Ranger but at my university it just meant anyone with a posh public school accent.
    Cheska always seemed genuine to me. I remember at one point in the beginning they seemed to be implying that she was interfering and meddling in someone else's situation but to me it just looked like she was trying to help a friend and really cared about them.

    Cheska was never right for the show and tried to be somewhere that wasn’t meant for her doing something that wasn’t who she was around people who weren’t her people.
    A better question is why she sought that out then struggled on. I’m not condoning it. She was very obviously not particularly liked. Felt like schoolgirl mean stuff.
    Found her inauthentic because she was trying to mimick and fit in with that crowd who were mostly hideous.
    The people were élitist pampered snobs. It’s who and how they were raised to be. Social media was horrible then for hate, in the way it is now, that’s human nature: jealousy and resentment squared.
    Binky learned to play the game better and distanced herself from - and ditched cheska - in the process.
    Edit: enjoying the interview of the women Cheska became. A shame to never see the real cheska but there wasn’t room for that on the show.
    A lesson about staying away from places and people that aren’t right for you. Glad her mum literally pulled her out.
    Very sorry to hear of her biological dad’s passing. Level headed even then for the experiences she’d had before MIC.

    What Made in Chelsea showed us was that those at the Elite end of the social class system, the upper class and the upper middle class keep to their own bubble 99.9% of the time, minus when Professor Green married Millie McIntosh, however that ended anyway and she reverted back to dating the posh men she usually went for. I used to hate going through Chelsea from my council estate in Wandsworth to get to Central London because you saw all of of this wealth, elitism and privelige that you had absolutely no access to because of the way you spoke and your background, and even if you became new money, you would never be truly accepted.
