No more Chelsea boys! I'll stay single for a bit'

Reality star Olivia Bentley says she's swearing off Chelsea boys for good after her latest split from hunky co-star Tristan Phipps.

The Made In Chelsea favourite has had a string of failed west London romances and reveals she's now planning to venture far out the SW3 postcode to find her next man.

"I think that's where I've gone wrong - no more Chelsea boys!" she tells new, adding that she's not in a hurry to be tied down again. "I think I'm going to stay single for a bit. I need someone to calm me down..."

The star, 27, was in an on/off relationship with ex-safari guide Tristan, 24, since 2020 before finally calling it quits in May. At the time she said they were "amicable", and she wished him all the best.

Despite their obvious on-screen chemistry, Olivia says this third- and final - break-up is definitely "for the best". But it came as a shock to many close to the former flames, as things seemed to be going well after Tristan moved into Olivia's swanky Chelsea apartment last year and the couple were even talking about having kids.

"We've done it three times before so it doesn't get easier but I am alright," she says, discussing their split. "It's for the best. We've given it a good old go." 

Despite walking away from the relationship for good, Olivia says she's still hopeful she'll find the right man and start a family, but she's not in any hurry.

"So I probably won't have babies with Tristan, but with someone else for sure," she explains, but "not any time soon".

Speaking at the shoot of gossip show Getting Lippy, presented by Slingo, Olivia adds, "I'm not in a rush for any. There's enough people around me having kids, I'll just hang out with them for five minutes and then remind myself why I'm not at that stage. I think as much as everyone around me is having babies, it hasn't made me want them yet."
