Speaking on Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett OBE’s brand-new weekly podcast, Dish, Jamie gushed about the ‘great combo’ of having a big wedding paid for by his future-wife’s parents.
He said: ‘I want the big wedding. And her parents are paying for it. It’s a great combo. I want this.
‘And in Spain, I found out that actually the groom can walk down the aisle first. Because I want that moment when the doors open, and everyone goes… I’m going to go… This is the greatest show! As Zac Efron.’

Elsewhere in the podcast episode, Jamie looked back on his decision to join Made In Chelsea, and revealed that he didn’t star in the first series because he thought the premise sounded like ‘the worst thing in the world.’
He recalled: ‘So, it was going to be called, I think, Chelsea Girls at the beginning. And a lot of my friends were signing up to it.
‘And it was this reality show about posh kids, which sounds the worst idea in the world and, everyone was asked to do it.
‘And I was friends with Spencer. And I kind of said, ”this is the worst idea that anyone’s ever done. Why on earth would you do it?”
‘And then they did it for the first series. And I was like, that looks like a lot of fun. So, then I went and did it and yeah, I did it for ten years.’

Nick Grimshaw clarified: ‘So hang on. You didn’t do the first series because you were like, ”cringe”. And then when it’s a success, you were like, ”sign me up”!?’
Jamie admitted: ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, ”you’re all losers. Why would you do that?” with Nick interjecting: ‘And then you’re like, ”I’ll do it just for a decade!?”
The Candy Kittens owner explained: ‘I was just going to dip my toe in, just test it out a little bit. Yeah. And then it was my life for ten years.

‘It was one of these things which was like, everyone has tough lives. Everyone, you know, works hard jobs, and does different things.
‘And then people were coming home and watching just posh idiots live off their parents’ money. And drink champagne, and I was like, ”surely this can’t be a good idea”.
‘But I think what it was, which was interesting, it was that time when reality TV was, everyone loved it because it was an insight into everyone’s lives. It was fun and interesting.’
Throwback: Jamie also looked back on how he first ‘hated’ now-BFF Spencer Matthews when they met, and detailed how their friendship developed (Pictured on Made In Chelsea in 2011)

The MIC star recalled: ‘I was dating a girl. We’re about 15 years old and he was dating her best friend. And I hated him. Because he was, he’s a douche bag and he, you know, he still is. Honestly, Spencer is, still is a complete douche bag.
‘And we became friends just because he was just this mad, he was, he was bonkers in so many ways. He had this like, like mind that was just so different to everyone else.
‘And so yeah, we became friends since we were about 15, 16 years old and then just have never stopped since then. And he, and he doesn’t have any [friends], even he admits it. We started a podcast called Six Degrees of Separation because I said, I basically ”Spencer you need more friends”.’
How it is: ‘And I hated him. Because he was, he’s a douche bag and he, you know, he still is. Honestly, Spencer is, still is a complete douche bag’ said Jamie (Pictured in June 2019)
Jamie’s latest podcast interview comes after his fiancee Sophie Habboo accidentally let slip her and Jamie’s wedding date on Good Morning Britain.
When Richard Madeley asked when their wedding would take place, Sophie immediately answered: ‘May 19th’.
A shocked Jamie responded by saying: ‘I can’t believe you just did that! You told me off on the podcast for wanting to say the date and now you just said it…’
Richard chimed in to joke: ‘The wedding’s off!’ to which Jamie quipped: ‘We’re over, we’re over!’
Dish, the new podcast from Waitrose & Partners hosted by Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett is available on all podcast providers now.
