The mystery of Sam Thompson and Zara McDermott's split deepens: Love Islander gushed about how 'proud' she was of her man days before breakup


The Love Islander, 28, and the former Made In Chelsea star, 32, were revealed to have split on Wednesday after spending Christmas and New Year's Eve separately.

Sam, who presents podcast Staying Relevant with close friend Pete, features Zara in his online content, with the pair often teaming up on viral Instagram and TikTok videos. The TV star also launched her first clothing label last year called Rise, which is available to buy at F&F at Tesco, and has successfully collaborated with beauty brands such as L'Oréal and Rio de Janeiro. 'But after a lot of conversations with those I love, I've gained the strength to face these fears, and when I was asked to speak to the BBC, I spoke candidly about my time on the show.'
