Where did it all go wrong for Sam Thompson and Zara McDermott? All the signs there was trouble in paradise as couple split after five years


The couple decided to end their five-year relationship, which has seen them travel and build a home together, after growing apart.

Zara also had a close relationship with Sam's sister Louise, who lives next door to the couple with fiancé Ryan Libbey and their three-year-old son Leo. After earning a new presenting gig on ITV's This Morning, Sam spent the end of 2024 in Australia co-hosting I'm A Celebrity spinoff Unpacked alongside Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers. Sam celebrated New Year's Eve by partying with his ex-Made In Chelsea co-stars Reza Amiri-Garroussi and Josh Patterson at London's Kensington Roof Gardens, downing shots, while Zara spent the evening at home with her cats.
