“Made in Chelsea” stars Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo officially tied the knot in April, in a stunning London ceremony at Chelsea Town Hall on 14 April, but they are having a bigger ceremony in Spain this month with even more friends and family. The couple have been drip feeding tidbits about their upcoming nuptials, including the venue, date, and bridal gown designer, as well as the guest list. While fellow MIC star Spencer Matthews will be the MC on the day, he was snubbed for the London wedding causing much controversy between the old friends. Fortunately, the confusion was explained in a joint podcast episode of “Nearlyweds”.
For the first official wedding, Habboo wore a stunning Vivienne Westwood minidress with an off-the-shoulder neckline and corseted top. She teamed the silk dress with a cute bow veil, crystal ankle-strap heels, a clutch with the slogan “Wifey for Lifey”, and a pair of sunglasses. Laing also looked dapper in a navy double-breasted suit and sunglasses. After the service, they dined with their guests at Stanley’s Chelsea, with a menu of burrata, onglet steak, and steamed cod.
The couple, who took the leap from being friends and castmates to falling in love in April 2019, are known for their hilarious presence on social media, as well as their candid podcast “Nearlyweds” where they have talked through every element of their day, including their signature wedding scent. Speaking on their podcast, they said wanted to capture the precious memories of their wedding with a smell that they could cherish forever. Opting for Orange Blossom Cologne, English Freesia Cologne, and Poppy & Barley Cologne by Jo Malone London, Habboo explained that the scents reminded her of her mum and dad.
It’s not easy to have lives play out on the small screen, but Habboo and Laing are one of the success stories. While Habboo continues to appear in the series, Laing quit the show in 2021, shortly before he popped the question in December of that year, due to his “bad anxiety”. Since then, the “Candy Kittens” founder has become a regular on TV and in our ears via his podcasts with Habboo and his series with Spencer Matthews, and recently covering Mollie King’s maternity leave on BBC Radio 1.
POPSUGAR previously caught up with the couple on the red carpet at the National TV Awards in October 2022, where we asked what three words would sum up their relationship. “Aggressive, argumentative, and horrible,” Laing laughed. Somehow, we don’t think that’s the case. Keep reading to find out all we know so far about their Spanish wedding, as well as pictures of their gorgeous London wedding.
