Millie Mackintosh broke down in tears as she moved into her new rental house after splitting from husband Hugo Taylor

The former Made In Chelsea star, 37, shared a new video on Instagram unboxing her belongings and making up her new flat pack furniture. 

But while sitting on the wooden floor of her new home, Millie couldn't hold back the tears as she cried while setting up her new home. 

The TV personality said she is 'finding a bit of strength in the chaos' as she starts a 'new chapter'.  

She wrote: 'I filmed this a couple of weeks ago while getting the house all set up and cosy before we moved in. 

'Box after box, room after room, there’s something oddly satisfying about putting together flat pack furniture with your own two hands. Especially when you don’t even own a screwdriver.

'New chapter, new walls, and somehow finding a bit of strength in the chaos of it all. Since moving in, lots of you have asked me how I found the house I’m renting. Honestly… I had so much help. 

'My wonderful friend @lucie.hirst held my hand through the whole process. She sources off-market places, handled the viewings and agents, and did all the tricky admin bits and bobs.

'It made a stressful time so much less complicated and it’s really starting to feel like home.'

Last month, Millie shared that she'd finally moved out of the marital home she shared with her ex Hugo, and she found the process a 'healing' one.

She penned: 'Moving day. Nervous, excited, everything all at once. And so it begins. New postcode, new front door, new chapter written entirely on my own terms this time.

'Divorce isn't the ending I imagined for myself, but this house, this next bit feels like proof that new beginnings really can be beautiful even when they start with cardboard boxes and lots of uncertainty.'

Sharing snaps of the empty rooms and packed boxes she continued: 'This is what starting again actually looks like. Not glamorous, not perfectly styled, just honest, and mine. I've learned more about myself in this in-between than I have in years.

'Every room a little emptier today, and me a little lighter for it. Funny how a house holds so much of you without you ever realising, until you have to carry it all out the door. 

'Slowly, slowly it starts to look like somewhere new. One chair at a time, one plant at a time, building a home that's entirely mine feels like its own kind of healing.' 

Admitting she had found the caption hard to write, she said: 'I've put off writing this caption for a few days because I wasn't quite sure how to sum it all up. 

'This move has been so many things at once, exciting, overwhelming, sad, hopeful, all wrapped into one very long day surrounded by boxes. Starting again somewhere new has taught me more about who I am than I expected. 

'Turns out you can grieve a chapter and be genuinely excited for the next one at the same time.'

Before their separation, Millie and Hugo spent months completing a full renovation on their £5million family home, regularly sharing updates about the project

Millie and Hugo have officially filed for divorce and have both appointed legal teams, with the pair said to be keen for a 'clean break' while continuing to co-parent.

Before their separation, Millie and Hugo spent months completing a full renovation on their £5million family home, regularly sharing updates about the project.

In April 2025, Millie posted a year into their renovation, revealing that the past 12 months had included 'time, energy and late nights'.

Millie said: 'It's wild to think it's been a whole year since we started our renovation… sometimes you get so caught up in the day-to-day that you forget to stop and appreciate just how far you've come.

'When I look back to the early days — the plans, the moodboards, the dust (so much dust!), the endless decisions and all the highs and lows that come with a project like this — it honestly feels like a lifetime ago.'

She continued: 'It took time, energy, late nights and a lot of patience… but seeing it now, I'm so proud of everything we put into it.

'The best part? We're finally at the stage where it's about the little things. Filling the space with art, books and those pieces you pick up over time that make a house feel like home.

'There's still plenty I want to do — but it feels really special to pause, look back and soak it all in.'

Months before, Millie had posted pictures of her old kitchen which she had transformed into a cosy snug.

But now Millie is ready to get stuck into a new project after moving into her new place following their split.
