Sam Thompson gives heartbreaking Soccer Aid update after suffering agonising injuries - ahead of planned encounter with ex Zara McDermott's new man Louis Tomlinson


Sam Thompson has given a heartbreaking update on whether he will be able to play in Soccer Aid on Sunday after suffering a string of agonising injuries.

After their blossoming romance was confirmed when they shared a steamy kiss in Mayfair last month, speculation of a split grew after Samie was noticeably absent from Sam's highly-publicised challenge for Soccer Aid last week. Sam and Louis will join the likes of Tyson Fury, Jill Scott, Grennan and Paddy McGuinness in the star-studded squad, while Wayne Rooney will step out of retirement as one of the managers. Zara and Sam were together for five years before they split at the end of 2024 shortly after the Made In Chelsea favourite worked in Australia for I'm A Celeb spinoff show Unpacked.
