The couple spent time with Issy on a trip to Bali in January, with Georgina sharing bikini-clad snaps with her partner's daughter, 24.

In one recent update posted on March 11, Georgina shared with her followers that she was 33 weeks pregnant at the time.

Georgina shared a carousel of stunning photos, where she showcased her blossoming bump in a brown triangle bikini.

Georgina is a model and is signed for London-based agency, Models 1.

Marc is an entrepreneur and businessman, co-owning London businesses Barworks Ltd/Goodlife Group (The Diners), Camden Town Brewery and East London Liquor Co.

He was also previously in a band and began working behind a bar to earn money before working his way up and going into business with his bosses.

Georgina's last public relationship was with reality star Alex, 34, for around two years between 2018 and 2020.

He began dating Georgina following his exit from the E4 reality show in 2017.

Alex did not cross over with Issy during his time on the popular programme, which she didn't join until 2022 and only appeared on for a few series.

During one story line, Issy's father Marc was introduced to viewers - who immediately fell for his handsome good looks.

Issy made her show debut after meeting Miles Nazaire in Mallorca, and seemed determined to make her presence known.

However, it was her dad, Marc, that left a lasting impression on fans after he appeared on the first episode of series 25.

Issy invited Miles round for a pool date at her family home, and the couple were joined by a good-looking man that fans were stunned to realise was none other than Issy's father.

Viewers rushed to Twitter to fawn over Marc, and beg him to appear in the show full time.

They One said: 'Is Issy's dad single? Asking for a friend'; 'Possibly showing my age here, but can we keep Issy's Dad as a main character?'; 'Omg who knew Issy's dad would be the highlight of #MadeInChelsea? That house is amazing but he is another level of hot.'

At the time of his appearance, Marc was married to Issy's mum Joanna, and they are also parents to children Freya and Jesse, who were in their teenage years.

The episode was filmed in their family home in Victoria Park, in East Villa, an incredible Georgian home with a double frontage, large open plan areas and a spiral staircase.

Izzy admitted to Miles that he reminded her of her dad, and upon meeting his daughter's new beau, Marc warned him: 'Well, good luck. You're going to need it.'

However, the episode saw Miles ditch Issy after deciding the then 20-year-old model was too immature.
