Kimberley Garner steps out with new man as Made In Chelsea star attends Chelsea's Christmas Lights switch-on with Trinny Woodall

Former Made In Chelsea star Kimberley Garner has revealed that she has a new man in her life.

The reality star turned swimwear designer is dating handsome trader William Claeyssens de Tena, 30, stepping out with him at the Chain of Hope Gala Ball for the first time.

Speaking exclusively to the Mail on Sunday, Kimberley confirmed her relationship status, revealing the budding romance was going well, and she was happy.

'We met through friends just last week, so this is our second date,' she added.

Kimberley's beau's Instagram says he divides his time between Marbella and London, and he appears to enjoy the high life - sailing, shooting, and attending events like the Goodwood Festival of Speed being some of his hobbies.

It comes after she recently revealed that she had 'just broken up with someone'.

Kimberley's last known romance began last summer, when it was revealed that she was going out with financier Andreas Anthis, but the pair broke up in April with Kimberley calling it the 'right decision' .

Kimberley was spotted for the first time with Andreas Anthis last July, as they packed on the PDA while walking her dog Sasha in London.

The reality star previously dated her MIC co-star Richard Dinan.

She also revealed she has bought a new house last week in Belgravia, London, and was 'excited' to be living back in the UK after putting her Miami beach house on the market, a decision which she says was not driven by the presidential race because she was 'happy' with the result.

'I just bought a new property in Belgravia, so I have been working for the last two months and had my head down,' she said.

'This is my first night out in two months.

'I am selling my flat in America, so I am actually moving my money from the US to London.

'I love it in America, but I just love British culture – we are fabulous. We have our culture, history, accents.

'I love our traditions here and feel it is very elegant. It is where I grew up, I went to boarding school here and think it is amazing.'

The 33-year-old socialite looked to be glowing with happiness as she celebrated the annual Christmas lights switch-on event on the Kings Road, Chelsea, on Saturday, alongside Trinny Woodall.

Kimberley first found fame on Made In Chelsea and has made a name for herself as a successful swimsuit brand entrepreneur.

She recently spoke about how she used to pretend to be an intern when she first started the business as nobody took her seriously.

But despite getting her break on the show she has no desire to go back saying 'I haven't watched it for years'.

'I am a grown up. I love my life now and don't need the drama.'

Kimberley has been spitting her time between her native London and the coastal city since she bought the pad in December 2018.

But she has now listed the stunning abode for sale with an asking price of $1.29 million.

The designer is expanding her range to include a line for men that will let them match their trunks with women's bikinis and revealed she would love actor Jacob Elordi to model them but had 'not approached him.'

The annual Chain of Hope Gala Ball celebrated a quarter of a century of 'mending little hearts' and, in 2023, it raised over £1.6 million for children with heart disease in developing and war-torn countries. According to its website, each year between 500 and 600 guests attend the Ball , from all over the world.

Past attendees have included Royalty, celebrities, fashionistas and world-renowned physicians in addition to a core group of international high net worth individuals.
