How long has Sophie been dating Jamie Laing?

News of Sophie’s romance with Jamie Laing stunned fans when their romantic feelings were made known in series 17 of Made In Chelsea.

Despite people’s thoughts and opinions, however, the two are still going strong, with Sophie fully supporting Jamie’s forthcoming stint on Strictly Come Dancing.

And that’s despite the fact that fans believe Jamie could potentially be struck with the Strictly curse – which has seen past contestants form relationships with their dance partner.

He claimed: “The Strictly curse is where you dance with your dance partner, get really close to them.

“I think that’s what happened to Seann Walsh.

“So many people have got with their Strictly dancers. I will still be seeing Habboo, I’m not going to start kissing my dancer!”

 

Who else has she dated?

Alex Mytton, 29, and Habbs were firmly loved up in the last episode  of series 15 despite the efforts of an intruding Harry Baron.

However, Alex called time on the relationship and told The Celeb Report: “We are kind of just friends…it fizzled out.”

Alex claimed he was only moving slowly because he was fresh out of his relationship with Lottie Moss.

Habbs also had a well documented relationship with MIC and Celebs Go Dating star Sam Thompson, who even ran back to the agents for a second time after their break up.
