The 'Made in Chelsea' star and the actress - who appeared in 'Holby City' in 2016 - have parted ways after just over two years together.

Francis - who has been on the E4 reality show since the first series in 2011 - revealed the news of their break-up on his own 'Private Parts' podcast and admitted it's been difficult getting used to the "adjustment" in his life.

He said: "It is with great sadness that I must report that Katy and I have regrettably parted ways.

"Break-ups are just the most awful thing and it's been quite an adjustment.

"Fortunately we have both had lots to keep our minds busy and distracted."

The 30-year-old millionaire previously dated 'Harry Potter' star Emma Watson, 29, in 2008 and former co-star Sophia Sassoon between 2012 and 2013.

Francis previously admitted things didn't work out between him and the 'Beauty and the Beast' star because he didn't want her fame to get in the way of his own "notoriety".

Speaking of his relationship with Emma, he said: "We had a bit of a thing a while back.

"But I have always been an ambitious person and I want to achieve my own notoriety for what I've done.

"That's why I chose not to pursue it any longer, because I didn't want to be the boyfriend of some child actress."

The reality star added that they bump into one another every now and then as they socialise in the same circles.

He added: "But we do share a lot of mutual friends and our paths cross from time to time."
