There’s been a spate of celeb break-ups during lockdown but perhaps the most surprising of all was Sam Thompson’s shock split from Zara McDermott amid allegations she cheated on him while appearing on The X Factor: Celebrity.
Despite both breaking their silence on social media in recent days, neither Sam nor Zara have directly addressed their relationship or the cheating rumours and we still have so many questions to be honest.
It sounds like all could be revealed very soon though as Sam and Zara’s split is set to play out in explosive scenes on the new series of Made in Chelsea, according to reports.
'The cameras have captured the whole fallout of Zara and Sam's dramatic split,' a source told The Sun. 'It means viewers will get to see the raw emotion caused by Zara's infidelity last year, as Sam tries to come to terms with what has happened. There's going to be a lot of tears and rows as Zara fights for her relationship.'
This all comes after it was claimed that the next series of E4 reality show will have a Big Brother style twist as the cast members all live together stately home due to the current restrictions surrounding COVID-19.
Could this be make or break for Sam and Zara’s relationship?
Last weekend, Sam spoke out for the first time since ending his relationship with Zara to thank Celebs Go Dating co-star Pete Wicks for being there for him to 'lean on' while he was feeling 'down'.
He shared a photo of him and Pete, in which he’d aged the Essex lothario’s face using an app, on Instagram and wrote, 'Thank you so much for putting up with me for the past week @p_wicks01 I’m incredibly lucky to have people I can lean on when I’m down. I know you’re not the soppy type, but you really are the brother I never had. I love you mate ❤️ #WEGOAGAIN💪🏻 good to see I haven’t aged you over the past 6 days 😂.'
It’s thought that Sam has been filming the celebrity special series of The Circle following his split from Zara but it’s been claimed the Love Island star has vowed to win back her boyfriend and is set for 'crisis talks' to save their relationship when he returns home.

9 Made In Chelsea Couples You Had Completely Forgotten Were Together
1 of 91. Jamie Laing and Louise Thompson
Remember when Jamie and Louise dated (much to Spencer's dismay) in 2012. Louise then left Jamie for Spencer, causing a very traumatic love triangle indeed. Poor Jamie.
2 of 92. Binky Felstead and Jamie Laing
Binks may be loving life with baby India, but remember when she dated Jamie Laing?!? Yes, we forgot too. After years of friendship, the two found it difficult to transition to an actual relationship, so decided to call it a day.
3 of 93. Lucy Watson and Jamie Laing
Jamie and Lucy were together for a bit and would even walk their dogs together. Not one for holding back, Lucy Watson has called the show 'incestuous' and she 'no longer wants to waste time with people like Jamie and Proudlock'. BURN.
4 of 94. Lucy Watson and Proudlock
Ah yes, Lucy and Proudlock. They were the most swoon-worthy couple in SW3... oh, until Lucy found out that Proudlock was dating other women.
5 of 95. Ollie Locke and Chloe Green
Topshop Heiress Chloe Green joined the MIC lot in 2011 to date Ollie Locke. Ollie had previously dated Gabby who he broke up with to explore his feelings for men, only to then end up with another woman. It did not go down well...
6 of 96. Rosie Fortescue and Hugo Taylor
When Hugo was dating Millie Mackintosh in the show, he hooked up with her best friend Rosie. Millie then raised her glass to a party full of guests and said 'cheers to friendship'.
7 of 97. Spencer Matthews and Lucy Watson
Spenny took Lucy to Paris in 2013 and we almost believed he had given up his womanising ways. We were wrong and he admitted to cheating on Lucy with several women. Sigh.
8 of 98. Spencer Matthews and Louise Thompson
Louise joined the show as Spencer's (very despairing) girlfriend. Spencer being Spencer, couldn't stay faithful and resulted in a fair few teary scenes between the pair.
9 of 99. Alex Mytton and Binky Felstead
Binky and Alex were love's young dream (kinda) for two years until his constant cheating became unforgivable. It all worked out well though as she now has the cutest little baby girl with JP.
