Binky Felstead has joked she ‘had the squatters over’ as carefree Ollie Locke quaffed wine in her living room after his eviction from his rental home.
Ollie and his husband Gareth began to move out of their £4million four bedroom Chelsea townhouse last week, after being forced to leave over a £25,000 bill in rent – which remains unpaid.
The pair are said to be at risk of bankruptcy. The £25,000 owed covers three months’ rent plus a fine. They were evicted after failing to pay their rent and settle outstanding costs by January 3.
Just two days after the Made In Chelsea couple were seen loading their belongings into a removal van, they have now been spotted lounging at fellow Made In Chelsea pal Binky’s home.
Binky shared a clip of Ollie and his husband at her home chatting to pals, as she joked: ‘Got the squatters over.’
In another clip, Ollie was seen scoffing a glass of wine and reminiscing on his and Binky’s life before Made In Chelsea as he recalled how ‘skint’ she was.

He said: ‘She had no money whatsoever so I would go round, cook them roasts and buy them Domino’s because I was the only one with any money, before we started the show.’
Ollie, 38, and Gareth, 37, who have two-year-old twins, enlisted Davis And Mac removal firm for the big move – a company which moved Emily Atack into her new country home last month.
A removal man was spotted on Monday carrying the couple’s £2,000 Louis Vuitton holdall and a £1,130 Rimowa suitcase as he loaded them into the back of a van.
Lending a helping hand, Ollie carried two large shopping bags filled with items, while a barefoot Gareth carried their dogs.
Ollie and Gareth lived with a tenant who paid her rent directly to them, only to later discover the money had not been paid to the landlord but she believes was used to ‘finance their luxury lifestyle’.
As a result, the tenant, despite keeping up with her payments, could now face the fallout – and potentially be placed in financial difficulty.
The married couple have rented the four-bedroom, four-bathroom property near the affluent King’s Road since 2023, often frequenting Notting Hill’s Portobello Road and using the home as the setting for their YouTube series, Our Daddy Diaries.
A source told the Daily Mail the Chelsea couple have been attempting to maintain appearances with luxury overseas holidays, stays in idyllic country homes, and dinners at London’s priciest restaurants.
According to insiders, they even jetted off to Barbados on a free Caribbean cruise with TOWIE’s Lydia Bright on the very day they were told their eviction, scheduled for March 2, was imminent.

A source revealed earlier this month: ‘Ollie and Gareth have struggled to meet their monthly rent payments for almost a year.
‘They live in a very affluent area of London, just a stone’s throw from the King’s Road, yet have been enjoying the high life, going on Caribbean holidays and dining at places like Scott’s, where prices can be extortionate.
‘They have failed to pay three months’ rent and were warned multiple times about breaching their contract, with a deadline of January 30 to settle their outstanding payments.
‘After missing it, accruing additional fees, they now face the risk of bankruptcy as well as being evicted from their home with their two young children.
‘To make matters worse, a tenant living in the property, who paid her rent directly to Ollie and Gareth, has been left in the lurch.
‘After paying on time every month, she trusted the money was passed on to the landlord.’
The Daily Mail contacted Ollie’s representatives for comment at the time.
