Made In Chelsea star Francis Boulle suspended from filming due to being late

Made in Chelsea’s Francis Boulle has reportedly been suspended from the show after repeatedly turning up late for filming.

The star will be missing two weeks of filming after arriving two hours late on most recent occasions. Producers of the E4 show issued the rest of the cast with a formal warning about the “extremely unprofessional” behaviour.

The Mail On Sunday have also claimed that the diamond-mining heir failed to turn up for a promotional photoshoot for the up and coming third series. Producers on accessions have seen Made In Chelsea stars arriving in set drunk, hungover and even taking sleeps in between breaks.

Production staff commented: “It has been brought to my attention that some of you have been turning up late as well as not being in a fit and professional state for filming. This is totally unacceptable and extremely unprofessional.”

“As we discussed with all of you before Christmas this level of behaviour will not be tolerated and would result in action being taken. We and the Channel are taking this very seriously and unfortunately I’m sad to say that this has now become reality with one member of the cast.

“As many of you now have outside interests as a result of Made In Chelsea I would urge you to think how this could have a knock-on effect to such things as personal appearances, magazines, other TV projects, branding etc. I would also ask all of you to think whether you would act in such a way in any other job without expecting similar repercussions.”

Boulle said that he has agreed to take time off from Made In Chelsea “by mutual consent” after his “business life” had impacted on his involvement in the programme.”
