About this episode

Millie Mackintosh discusses her experiences with ADHD, alcohol, and reality TV fame in a candid conversation with Olivia Attwood.

We’re joined by original Made In Chelsea icon Millie Mackintosh. Millie opens up about the reality of growing up in boarding school, being bullied by other girls, struggling with undiagnosed ADHD and how alcohol became a way to cope with anxiety, insecurity and the pressure of being in the public eye. We get into the early days of Made In Chelsea, what filming the show was REALLY like behind the scenes, getting the bus to set before pretending to arrive in a Bentley, the chaos of reality TV fame and the truth about those iconic MIC moments. Millie also speaks honestly about addiction, panic attacks, “hangxiety”, motherhood, sobriety and the moment she realised she had to stop drinking for good. Plus we talk ADHD brains, doom spirals, therapy, partying in Monaco, being the class clown at school and why social media comments are completely unhinged.
