Zara McDermott’s Secret to Being a ‘Natural’ Mom Revealed
Over the May Bank Holiday weekend, Zara McDermott snuggled up to her friend’s child, taking delight in it after her former boyfriend, Sam Thompson, publicly announced his relationship with a new woman.
On Sunday, the former Love Island celebrity and documentary producer, aged 28, shared fresh photos on Instagram, exuding a cheerful demeanor.
It’s believed that the unidentified girl might be the daughter of her friend, since Zara mentioned in a 2022 interview with Hello! that her ‘friend was pregnant’ at that point.
Showing off with her goddaughter, people in the comments frequently remarked that she seemed incredibly ‘comfortable’ or ‘easy’ in this role, and that she looked ‘perfectly suited’ for motherhood.
It seemed like a wholesome day out for the girls, as they cosied up together for photos.

After starting a relationship with Louis Tomlinson, it appears that Zara has developed a close bond with his son Freddie, who is nine years old and shares this connection with his mother, Briana Jungwirth.
Following the reveal of his recent makeover by his former Made In Chelsea co-star, aged 32, it’s been disclosed that he now has a new romantic interest.
In December, Zara parted ways with Sam, but he’s since moved on with Love Island contestant Samie Elishi.
At Olivia Attwood’s lavish birthday gathering held at Bacchanalia in London’s fashionable Mayfair district, Samie decided to speak openly about her budding relationship with Sam for the first time. This was evident when they publicly displayed affection towards each other outside the venue, confirming their romantic involvement.
Samie opened up about the budding romance for the very first time during his visit on the podcast, Chloe Mediumship.
In this show, a psychic medium serves as the host. During the program, Samie shared her experiences of having uneasy intuitions in prior romantic encounters.
She shared: “I’ve had intuitive feelings about men in the past. I’ve been in a few relationships where I just knew they weren’t right. It felt like I could sense that they were going to end, and every day I would get a feeling that it was coming to an end, this wasn’t meant for us.
Initially, you choose to ignore a situation and then find the disorder escalating. It feels as though the cosmos is warning you with a subtle threat: “I might explode this whole setup if you don’t part ways soon.” Reflecting upon it, I wish I had heeded that first message I received months ago.








As the interview unfolded with this incredible talent before me, I couldn’t help but ask myself: ‘Isn’t it obvious? There’s something about them that just clicks. Do you think this collaboration is going to be amazing?’
Without revealing too much, the ex-Love Island participant responded: ‘At the moment, everything’s going well, so yes, I guess it could be said that things are all on a positive note. Still, it’s still the early stages.’
Sam initially crossed paths with Samie, who gained fame by participating in Love Island back in 2023 and reappeared in the All Stars season this year, during his hosting duties for the companion show, Aftersun.
After their split with Zara, they began a series of playful conversations via Instagram, eventually meeting up in real life where they hit it off.
According to our source, it appears that Sam and Samie have formed a strong connection. If initial indications hold true, their bond might develop into a lasting relationship. Though it’s still the beginning stages, there seems to be mutual affection between them.



Sam is presenting Samie to Chelsea along the King’s Road during the Easter weekend while showcasing her publicly. Given his popularity in the neighborhood, it was significant that he didn’t keep her secluded.
In January, Sam parted ways with his former girlfriend Zara, who soon began dating the famous One Direction member, Louis Tomlinson.
In an episode of the “Staying Relevant” podcast hosted by Pete Wicks, Sam shared that he had recently been on his first date following his separation from Zara. It’s said that he previously spent a romantic Easter getaway with someone named Samie.
Referencing his emotional struggles following the separation from Zara, he admitted that it had been a very challenging period for him. However, now, he feels at ease with himself once more.
