Emma has just joined Made in Chelsea as dating Digby, but this isn’t the first time she’s been on the show

Emma Walsh has just joined the cast of season 23 of Made in Chelsea, and is cosying up to Digby as his latest girlfriend. But, Emma is no stranger to Made in Chelsea, as she appeared on the show back in series 10 when she was in a love triangle with Ollie Locke and Spencer Matthews.

On the show now, she says she doesn’t really speak to Ollie Locke anymore, and they aren’t “friendly” exes. She says her new relationship with Digby is going “really well”. But, it looks like there could be some further drama on the horizon, at it looks like she’s back in another MIC love triangle later in the series – this time with Digby and Tristan. Seriously, can they not find any other people to date?!
