It hit headlines this week that Zara McDermott and Sam Thompson had gone their separate ways after five years together. And with Love Island All Stars just days away, many may be wondering what this means for ex-islander Zara.
However, her chances on the Maya Jama helmed spin-off have already been ruled out according to reports.
Zara McDermott snubbed from Love Island after Sam Thompson split
Despite Zara rising to fame on Love Island in 2018, it seems that the reality star isn’t heading back to her roots to gain even more popularity in the sun-soaked world of Love Island.
In fact, new reports claim that this is out of the question due to ITV’s loyalty to Aftersun host and I’m A Celeb winner Sam Thompson – Ouch!
A source told The Sun: “A gorgeous former Islander like Zara suddenly becoming single just before All Stars would have usually had bookers running straight to the phone. But that move was immediately ruled out because of Sam’s connections at ITV.
“After winning I’m A Celebrity in 2023 he’s become part of the presenting stable across This Morning and on the jungle spin-off show. So there’s just no chance the bosses would want to upset him by signing her, should Zara spilling any beans on their break-up. She’s very focussed on her documentary work with the BBC so would have been unlikely to say yes anyway, but certainly she will not be approached, full stop.”
