"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.".
Following the split, Sam joined some of his Made In Chelsea pals while enjoying a wild New Year as his ex-girlfriend Zara McDermott stayed in their Chelsea home. The TV star, 32, was seen in a pub making a toast as Reza Amiri-Garroussi filmed. Sam and Reza were joined by a group of pals at Kensington Rooftop Gardens, including MIC star JP.
In his speech I’m A Celeb winner Sam told fans it was going to be a "memorable evening", as he told his reality telly pals how lucky he was to be spending New Year with them. The night started off with some relaxed drinks, but Reza filmed things escalating as they partied in the swanky venue as the clock struck midnight.
