Although they did briefly split, the couple decided to give things another go the following year and have been together since. However, after the pair spent Christmas and New Year’s apart, a source has now said they’ve split again. ‘Sam and Zara have ended their relationship. It’s been an incredibly difficult decision for them to part ways, they still care and have a lot of love for each other,’ the source said.
‘But after a tough year of working hard at their romance, they have split and will be focusing on their individual careers going forward into 2025. ‘There has been no scandal or fallout between them, it’s just the result of a difficult year, where they both had to spend a lot of time focused on their own projects,’ they added when speaking to Mail Online.
