This is where all the current cast members of Made in Chelsea went to university

We all know the Made in Chelsea cast are rich, posh and like the finer things in life. Loads of the current Made in Chelsea cast members went to fancy private schools, and then on to university to study a whole range of subjects.

From business to fashion and law to art, loads of the Kings Road gang have been to uni. But are they putting their degrees to good use or just brunching and sipping champagne now? The team at Accommodation For Students has put together which of the current Made in Chelsea cast members have been to university and what they’ve used their degrees for since. 

Robbie Mullet – University College London (UCL)

Robbie Mullet has been in Made in Chelsea since 2021, and he’s been at university at the same time. He lives in Camden, and is currently studying Law at University College London, set to graduate in 2023. 

Speaking to The London Tab, Robbie said balancing filming and his degree can be hard, and explained what it was that got him into law. “The reason I got into law is actually quite interesting,” he said. “I did jury service when I was 18, not really having any sense of direction in life, you know, wasn’t doing too well in college. I remember at the end of the trial I was completely inspired by the barrister’s closing speech and decided [law] was worth pursuing.”

Joel Mignott – Leeds Arts University 

Joel Mignott is a model, DJ and partner to fellow Made in Chelsea cast member, Robbie Mullet. The 26-year-old joined the show earlier this year. Joel is originally from Leeds, but signed a modelling contract for an agency in London when he was 17. Alongside pursuing his career in modelling, he went to Leeds Arts University to study Fine Art.
