Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo are reportedly adding a second Disney+ series to their TV empire. The former Made In Chelsea star and his wife are said to have landed a second series of their show Raising Chelsea.
Jamie, 37, and Sophie, 31, allowed cameras to follow their lives as they prepared for the birth of their son Ziggy during the first three-part series of the show.
The second series would focus on their lives now that Ziggy, who is seven months old, is here. Producers are said to be hoping to film enough content to make the next edition span more than three episodes.
A source told The Sun that Disney bosses were “delighted” with how audiences responded to Raising Chelsea, adding that Jamie and Sophie “secured the hearts of Disney subscribers” with how “authentic and vulnerable” they were. “The deal’s done,” the source continued. “And filming is set to start soon.”
According to the insider, the couple have been offered £500,000 to continue sharing their lives with the public. Jamie and Sophie were previously on Made In Chelsea. He spoke to the BBC about how he wanted their return to screens as a couple in Raising Chelsea to feel “real”.
He said: “If there are three cameras and a set-up, it feels forced. We wanted to capture everything and I wanted to make sure it was really real so you see everything. Even when things happened that were intense we kept it in because we made a deal. There is nothing off limits – I don’t like the idea of a filtered version of ourselves, it’s not true, authentic or real.”
Sophie also told the publication that doing the show felt “natural” as they’d already been on reality TV. But, she continued, there were moments when she forgot they were filming as just one camera was involved in capturing content.
During the show, a camera was even permitted into the delivery room as Sophie gave birth to Ziggy, who was born in December 2025. The anaesthesiologist filmed it on Sophie’s phone. She shared that she didn’t initially want that recorded, but ultimately decided that it was part of the story and should be included.
Jamie has also landed another TV role. According to reports, the newly married father of one, has now landed a role as a guest investor on BBC’s Dragon’s Den alongside veteran business entrepreneurs including Deborah Meaden and Peter Jones.
He is reported to be joining the judging panel for the 23rd series, following in the footsteps of other celebrities who have guest judged, including Joe Wicks and Gary Neville.
Away from the telly, Jamie is quite the businessman. He co-founded a successful vegan confectionary business, Candy Kittens in 2012, which sells sweets in flavours including Eton Mess and Sour Watermelon. Back in 2024, his company had a £15million turnover and this was later followed up by the £36million acquisition of healthy snack bar Graze.
The Mirror contacted Jamie and Sophie’s reps for comment.
