- This week, Jamie is joined in the studio by none-other than his good friend, fellow podcaster and MIC alumni, Millie Mackintosh.
In this episode, Jamie and Millie have a super honest and open discussion about their journeys with mental health. Millie speaks candidly about her journey with anxiety, from when it started when she was at school, to having therapy and stopping drinking in order to work on her relationship with herself.
They also discuss having children, keeping the spark alive in relationships and even reminisce about the good old days of Made in Chelsea, as well as the unexpected way that Millie ended up being cast for the show. This is not one to miss.

❤She is hands down my absolute fav original MIC cast❤
Jamie is the best interviewer. inquisitive, curious, interested, interesting, empathetic, funny, honest, respectful.
Awww, this takes me back. Haven't seen Millie for ages.
This was a great conversation, its nice to see how much they have both grown.
I could really relate to this conversation. Panic attacks since I was 13 which came on after being bullied. It changed my whole life,took away my confidence. I had to go on medication in my 30’s as the panic attacks were all day,every day. The thought of everything overwhelmed me. I’m now 42,last had a drink 5 months ago and I’ve never felt better since being alcohol free. Hangovers destroyed me. I think age helps too with confidence coming back and staying clear of drama and dramatic people 😊
Jamie’s ibs lightbulb moment is exactly what I had watching this. I haven’t had an ibs episode in so long and I realised it’s because I’m in a new job and no longer stressed and anxious. 💡💡💡
Love you Millie! Thanks Jamie for having her on. ❤️
The early days of MIC were hands down the best. The cast, with Millie, Spencer, Jamie etc were great. It captured exactly what the show was supposed to be. Everything since then has been a pale imitation. It’s very rare that the original series of a show can improved on, and this proves it. I still watch it, and enjoy it, but it bares no comparison to the early days.
Millie your slap is the best reality TV moment everrrrrr
My panic attacks started randomly when I was 22 on a bus home from work. I never knew what it was until a year later it happened again. I’ve seen had around 20 more. Horrific to feel like your dying. I’m 33 now!!
Millie is the type of girl who would be gorgeous without any makeup on
Great interview. Millie looks stunning as always 🩷
She’s adorable ! But Jamie is my ultimate favourite made in Chelsea cast member 🙌😂 xx
Ooh my goodness that us my life right there. Went through the same. I love Milly , realising what she went through and looking at her life, I feel she inspires me. So many people do go through these things, sad but we doing so well so far...
Loved this, what a lovely person, loved millie on Chelsea.
Your honesty is refreshing.
What a great interview. Thanks for sharing and off to check out the podcast. It sounds just what I need. ❤️
Millie was one of my faves on the show !!
loved this one, millie has really grown up
Loved Millie and Hugo on MIC 💕
My panic attacks started when my mum was diagnosed with cancer when i was 18/19. I developed a way to cope to manage to lessen the feeling of not breathing- its hard to explain because i can breath obviously, but it feels like im breathing but i cant feel air going into my lungs, it feels like being smothered and suffocated. Later i developed a condition called pots which is physiological but creates a similar experience, but i feel so much sympathy for anyone who goes through it. I just increase the length of my inhale and make it slower, and concentrate solely on the feeling of my ribs expanding as i take in the breath and then exhaling really slow feeling my ribs sink and trying to drop my shoulders as far as possible and concentrate solely on that. It seems to unclench my muscles and get me out of my head. Then you have to break the trigger down into stages before you think about it. Like if your worried about a big presentation the next day, id focus on 1. Getting my outfit ready and getting a good night sleep. Then id write down the other stages but leave them until it was time to do them, i have my list and my mind can relax so i can unwind because i wont forget, i have my list. That helps me anyway, if it helps anyone else fab!
Millie was the best, certainly of the female cast. Victoria Baker-Harber was the “Uber Bitch” of cutting insults, but Millie was the only one who ever got the better of her. I remember they met by chance in the park, and when Millie’s dog didn’t react well to Victoria, Millie explained “he doesn’t get on well with other dogs.”
Great interview, you both have come a
long way. 👌👏👏👏👏
just curious - if anyone can explain - how can a person feel like theyre a better mum, partner, friend etc just from not drinking? Because assumably she socially drinks and then gets hungover, but on a day to day basis I'm assuming she wasn't an alcoholic or drinking heavily daily - so I'm interested to know how you change so beneficially in your whole life just from not drinking on a night out for example
what i'm trying to say is i get how much it would improve an alcoholic's life - someone who uses alcohol as a dependence. But, as a social drinker, how can stopping drinking on the weekends improve your overall life and mental health etc?
I understood it as she's overall less anxious which means she's focussed on everything a lot more, including being a Mum.
Love Millie ❤❤❤❤
Love Millie
So I keep hearing about public people going sober and they all say how wonderful they feel and that their anxiety is less now and whatnot, I wonder, what happens to people like me who don't drink?... how do I reduce my anxiety?
Enjoyed the episode ❤
Thanks so much Shama 💛
Hangovers definitely make anxiety worse
I fancied this woman sooo much
❤❤❤❤
I get a de ja vu before i have panic attacks it absolutely awful
I think this was a great podcast but I do think it needs to be taken into consideration that some may not be able to have kids or may not get through the adoption process so I dont think its right to say that is a human beings aim in life...I have a little one now but I was told I couldnt have kids so I can understand both sides but I think it needs to be factored in somewhat...
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Magnesium deficiency can cause or contribute to panic attacks.
Why did her parents make her stay at a school where she was so bullied and so anxious about being there?
I invite her to come here with El Kacetudo and we will talk about. With deep respect of course
Those medications poisoned me
Jamie is right though, with having adhd, parenting is alot harder
I bet Jamie secretly wishes his wife was as mature and was as laid back as she is lol
how can you even insinuate this .. no need to pit two women up against eachother. Sophie is a great person in her own right. Just because she has a laugh with jamie all the time it doesn't erase her maturity 🤣
... how about Paris Smith & Miles... MIC is well known for having VERY poor diversity representation... just a thought.🤔
Weird that she didn’t talk about cheating on her ex husband lol
Victim, victim victim. I just can’t listen to it. Sometimes you people are so transparent and so insincere. Some people actually have real problems. So privileged and no idea. Planning a wedding, flying with your children, drinking and hangovers. So dramatic. Just stop.
Woah chill
Anxiety is real and can ruin anyone's quality of life - whether they're homeless or a Chelsea babe. Just because someone else has it worse doesn't delegitimize someone's problems. Stop being a prick or don't watch.
I'm 1,000,000x less well off than Millie but her having the guts to be honest about her anxiety has helped me. If you can't have empathy and only care about people with the same problems as you then don't watch.
It’s all relative at the end of the day, and they’re just being open and honest about their lives
Loved this episode, keep it up guys! (Btw I just sent you a quick message on Instagram, let me know if it went through :)
Love Millie
