Made in Chelsea has issued a message urging viewers to “#BeKind” about contestants on social media in a bid to stamp out cast member trolling.

A story shared on the show’s official Instagram account asked fans to be considerate in their online posts.

“Remember that our Made in Chelsea cast are all real people, with family and friends, who are reading all your comments. Please remember to #BeKind. Thank you, E4Chelsea,” the statement read.

RadioTimes.com has approached Channel 4 for additional comment.

It comes after Yasmine Zweegers opened up about the abusive responses she received to a now-scrapped trailer for Made in Chelsea: Corsica back in August.

The trailer, which was posted to Made in Chelsea’s official social media accounts, was removed after Yas received a torrent of abusive comments in response to the drama teased in the clips.

The footage showed Liv discovering that her ex Tristan Phipps had kissed her friend Yas, as well as hinting at the romantic entanglement between Yas and Sam Prince, whose then-girlfriend Inga Valentiner also starred on the show.

Speaking to The Sun, the star revealed that producers had removed the trailer in an attempt to keep the abuse at bay.

“The trailer was a lot, it was really intense. When you see a condensed version like that it looks awful,” she said, adding, sarcastically: “There were a lot of lovely comments underneath that trailer…”

“I am nervous about it coming out because a lot of people have their opinions on the situation, but I know what happened,” she added.

After their controversial coupling up in Corsica, Yas and Sam made it official just a few episodes into Made in Chelsea season 26, which kicked off in October.

However, their relationship hasn’t been free from further drama, with the pair clashing over Sam’s continued closeness to his ex, and things getting awkward when Sam introduced Yas to his mother.

Made in Chelsea season 26 continues on Monday 13th November on E4 at 10pm. Check out more of our Entertainment coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what’s on.
