Former Made In Chelsea star Tabitha Willett has been flooding her Instagram feed with pictures of her whopping engagement ring, courtesy of her multi-millionaire fiancé Harry Hoare.
So it may come as a surprise that the influencer allegedly still owes her former landlord, Charlotte Hill, a hefty £11,107.
In October 2024, I revealed Ms Willett, now 33, had been found guilty in court of trashing the £1.8 million apartment in Kensington she had rented for eight months in 2022.
She left make-up stains and drawings on the walls, drilled holes for pictures and a television, left a £9,000 carpet stained with dog pee, and damaged a hob.
She was ordered to pay £4,749, in instalments of £600 a month, to Monaco-based Ms Hills. But I hear she paid only six instalments, stopping last September.
Nor has she paid a large chunk of the £3,500-a-month rent she owed on the luxury two-bedroom apartment, bringing the total outstanding balance to £11,107, I’m told.
When Ms Hills sued over the state of the flat in 2024, she told the court: ‘It is a nightmare… The flat was completely wrecked.’
Ms Willett counter-sued for harassment but that claim was dismissed. She is now expecting a child with her husband-to-be Harry, a Dubai-based financial broker.
She also has a daughter, Ottilie, with her ex, Fraser Carruthers.
Ms Willett did not respond to my approach for comment last week.

Cruzing into the music business…
Could Cruz Beckham be the new Harry Styles?
The youngest son of Sir David and Lady Beckham has just been signed to DawBell, a big music PR agency which represents the former One Direction star, Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa.
The move indicates Cruz, is no longer just a nepo baby and that his indie band, Cruz Beckham And The Breakers, have the nod of approval from music industry bigwigs. Watch this space…

VB’s off the mark
Perhaps Cruz could help his mum with her legal bill after she lost a 14-month trademark battle.
Chinese designer Shaofeng Ren, who lives in Italy, has been selling clothes on a Facebook page under the name ‘V&B: Vintage & Bohemme’ and wanted to trademark the name and logo.
Victoria Beckham’s fashion company objected, complaining it was too similar to her VB brand.
However a European court has found against her, leaving the former Spice Girl to pay costs.

Did Vogue go rogue?
British Vogue’s former editor-in-chief, Edward Enninful, has hit back after the magazine claimed Bhavitha Mandava as the first brown model to grace its cover.
He vented: ‘In the haste to claim “firsts”, let’s not forget the ones who came before’ – then listed the likes of Jameela Jamil and Simone Ashley who were cover stars during his tenure.

My lips are sealed, but…
Which celebrity invited her A-list friends to a ceremony to take mind-bending ayahuasca following her birthday?
Has Prince William stopped playing padel at the swanky Fairmont Windsor Park because the hotel is owned by a pal of his disgraced uncle?
I’m told William used to be quite a regular there as it’s close to the family home but now prefers to play at a court in Slough.
The hotel is owned by billionaire property tycoon Surinder Arora, who asked Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor to open the site for him in 2021.
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie were also guests at his wedding.
