MADE in Chelsea bosses were forced to scrap their dramatic teaser trailer after a torrent of horrific abuse.
Ahead of the cast’s away trip to Corsica airing this Sunday, the 30-second clip showed some of the most explosive storylines set to play out.

Made in Chelsea beauties Willow, Inga and Liv
In a now-deleted post from E4, Yasmine Zweegers kisses Tristan Phipps as his ex Olivia Bentley is heard saying: “We agreed that one thing we wouldn’t do was sleep with someone in this group.”
Then a series of jaw-dropping revelations play out, including a shock kiss between Imogen Bloom and Reza Amiri-Garroussi – despite her relationship with David Templer.
There’s also another surprise stumble in the road between Willow Day and Harvey Armstrong who were last seen dating in London.
Willow shares a kiss with Harvey‘s archrival Miles Nazaire – despite his fling with newcomer Jane Amber Aubrun-Mautin.
And in a further unexpected twist, Yasmine is seen flirting with Sam Prince before their secret kiss is revealed.
It pushed Sam’s recent ex Inga Valentiner to break down in tears – and led Yasmine to come under fire from fans.
Speaking to The Celeb Report about receiving toxic abuse from trolls over the advert, Yasmine said it was producers who decided to step in and remove the video.
“The trailer was a lot, it was really intense,” she said.
“When you see a condensed version like that it looks awful.”
“There were a lot of lovely comments underneath that trailer…”, Yasmine added, sarcastically.
“You have to try to block things out and not take it to heart, but you want to retaliate.
“I think ‘why do you follow me if you hate me so much?’ If I hated someone I wouldn’t be following them.
“I am nervous about it coming out because a lot of people have their opinions on the situation, but I know what happened.
“Hopefully it will tell more of the context and story behind it and about everything that happened.
“I’m trying to move on from it, but it’s hard because it’s airing and you have to go through it all again and relive it all with everyone’s opinions.”
Yasmine laughed: “I’m learning lessons on national TV. It’s humbling.”
Meanwhile her holiday fling and show hunk Tristan has told viewers not to cast judgement, saying: “Life is complicated and we’re just humans trying to figure it out.”
He added: “People always make a judgement on a snapshot. They seen a short trailer and people have obviously got it figured out already.
“But I think if you watch the series, you’ll have a lot of emotion, but not necessarily negative emotions.
“There was no menace in the situation. It was an intense trailer and it was a manic and very dramatic series, but I loved it and I think by the end of it you’ll have a very different opinion of the situation.”
There’s further upset in the sneak peek at the new series, airing on Sunday night, as Harvey is seen breaking down in tears.
The edit suggests he’s crying over Willow’s kiss with Miles, but setting the record straight, entrepreneur Harvey explains: “I was crying, but not because of what you thought I was probably crying about..
“I was actually crying at Inga being upset because it reminded me of when I upset [my ex-girlfriend] Emily Blackwell. I saw the same pain in her eyes.
“But it made it look like I was I was crying at Miles kissing Willow, as if that broke my heart.”
He laughed: “I was like ‘f***ing hell, great editing.”
Joining newcomer Jane is her best friend, 22-year-old model Geronimo Mörtl.
He shares a three-way kiss with gay couple Robbie Mullett and Joel Mignott as they explore having a throuple relationship.
Despite the backlash over Tristan and Yasmine’s kiss, Robbie says he’s not worried about Ofcom complaints, having worked “tirelessly” with Channel 4 and a queer specialist on set.
