'I love my beautiful chaotic lifestyle'

Made In Chelsea alum Millie Mackintosh has made big changes to her life since her time on the show. She married Hugo Taylor five years ago and the couple now have two daughters, Sienna, three, and two-year-old Aurelia, and she has been enjoying her "beautiful and chaotic" home life in London.

Here, Millie, 34, shares the secrets to enjoying a booze-free social life, how she rates her friend Sam Thompson in the I'm A Celeb jungle and the surprising reason we will never see her on Strictly Come Dancing.

How is motherhood treating you, Millie?

Honestly, I love it. My little one turned two recently and it's quite a big moment realising I don't have a baby any more. I've now got a toddler and a young child, so they can both talk and really let me know what's going on. It's amazing just to have that connection with them. I love being a mum. At the same time it's very intense - it is literally beautiful chaos. I feel it's been the making of me. I've changed a lot compared to the girl I was in my twenties.

Would you and Hugo like to have more children?

Sometimes I'm like, "No, I'm definitely done," and other times I think, "Maybe in the future." Occasionally I'll cuddle a baby and think, "Oh, maybe I would like a baby boy" and then I think about the reality of having three teenagers. I see the strain on my friends who have three children and it's a lot. So who knows? Maybe I will have another one when I'm 40. Maybe getting a dog could be the answer to whenever those broody feelings come up.
