Disney+ greenlights second season of British Hulu original series Raising Chelsea

2 min readEditor-approved Apex article

Disney+ has ordered a second season of Raising Chelsea, the British Hulu original series, according to Deadline. The streaming platform move extends the show’s run on Disney+ as it follows Jaime Laing and Sophie Habboo through the day-to-day realities of building a family while continuing to work in media.

Raising Chelsea is built around Laing and Habboo’s public personas and their shift from reality TV to parenthood-focused life. The series centers on them as podcasters and reality TV stars adapting to life as parents, with the season-one premise carrying into the next installment.

For season two, the show will bring the couple back into their professional lives and routine as they return to work. Deadline reports that the next batch of episodes will also include “life occasions” and additional family adventures.

The announcement frames the second season as a continuation of the series’ focus on how major changes in household life ripple into work schedules, public commitments, and day-to-day planning. It also indicates that the show’s mix of behind-the-scenes parenting routines and media-related storylines will remain central to the format.

Raising Chelsea is positioned as part of Disney+’s library of British original programming, and the renewal underscores the platform’s continued investment in unscripted and reality-adjacent series. The decision comes as streaming services expand slate depth in the United Kingdom, where British reality formats frequently draw viewers who follow creator-led personalities across multiple media.

While Deadline did not provide additional casting expansions or an announced release date in the material provided, it described season two in terms of new plot arcs centered on work returns and family milestones. The season is expected to continue documenting the couple’s efforts to balance their public presence with the constraints and surprises of parenting.

The second-season order adds to Disney+’s broader unscripted lineup and gives Laing and Habboo another opportunity to translate their existing audience into a longer-running franchise focused on family life.

A press release or further Disney+ rollout details were not included in the provided reporting, but the renewal itself establishes that production plans for additional episodes are underway under the Disney+ and Hulu original branding for British audiences.

Why It Matters

  • The renewal extends Disney+’s unscripted and reality-adjacent slate for British audiences under Hulu’s original branding framework.
  • Viewers of Laing and Habboo will get additional episodes that continue blending public media work with parenting routines and milestones.
  • A second season typically means sustained production and additional licensing or distribution arrangements tied to Disney+’s international programming strategy.
  • The focus on returning to work and major family occasions suggests the series will keep aligning creator-led storytelling with audience interest in life changes over time.
