Putting on a brave face
Sam Thompson recently appeared on Love Island: Aftersun, marking his first TV appearance since the reported 'explosive' row with girlfriend Zara McDermott. Despite ongoing 'crisis talks' with Zara, Sam joined Maya Jama on the show to discuss the latest villa gossip.
Crisis Talks and Relationship Struggles
According to sources, Sam and Zara are navigating through their differences as work commitments have taken a toll on their relationship. Last week, reports surfaced of a heated argument leading to Zara temporarily leaving their shared home. The couple is said to be working towards reconciling and prioritizing their relationship amidst busy schedules.
Candid Commentary and Apologies
During his appearance on Love Island: Aftersun, Sam shared his candid views on the show's events, even joking about fellow contestant Joey Essex's actions in the villa. However, Sam later had to apologize for swearing on air, unaware that the show had passed the 9pm watershed.
Support from Friends
Following the reported row with Zara, Sam was seen seeking solace with close friend Pete Wicks at the Tric Awards in London. Sources revealed that the couple's busy work schedules have limited their quality time together, leading to tensions that they are now working to resolve.
