Made in Chelsea alums Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing will star in a new Disney+ reality show, Raising Chelsea.
Premiering on the platform April 2 in the U.K. and Ireland, the three-part limited series will follow the reality stars-turned presenters and social media personalities as they face “the messy, scary and hilarious reality of becoming parents.”
A plot synopsis reads: “Pregnancy begins with joy, before panic quickly sets in, as medical jargon, home renovations, and family opinions pile up. Fun-loving, workaholic Jamie, says he’s the boy who won’t grow up and struggles to see himself in the role of dad. Meanwhile, Sophie balances career highs and the thrill of becoming a mum, with raging hormones and fears of maternity leave and motherhood impacting her career.
“Jamie and Sophie run headlong into the drama of labour to finally meet their baby — and with family and friends never far away, they laugh and cry their way through the joy and the chaos.”
Made in Chelsea, which first aired in 2011, chronicles the personal and professional lives of the young, wealthy elite in the affluent West London neighborhoods of Belgravia, Chelsea, Fulham and Knightsbridge. Habboo and Laing met on the wildly popular reality show in 2019 before becoming engaged in 2021. They married in 2023 and in December, their son was born, Ziggy.
The business-savvy couple has gone from strength to strength in recent years with podcasts NearlyWeds and NearlyParents. They regularly host red carpet events in London and feature in various reality shows on the British TV circuit.
