Sam Thompson 'back on celeb dating app' hours after split from Love Island star
Sam Thompson is reportedly looking for love again on swish celebrity dating site, Raya, after the Mirror revealed he and Love Island's Samie Elishi had cooled their romance
Made In Chelsea star Sam Thompson, is back on celebrity dating app, Raya, just hours after his split with Samie Elishi. The Mirror reported that Sam, 32, and Love Island star, Samie, 25, have called it quits despite being papped locking lips in the street a few weeks ago, with a source telling us: "They both have busy lives, it just didn't work out."
Since his split with Samie - and shock separation from ex-girlfriend, Zara McDermott, in December – Sam is now said to be looking for love after taking to 'Tinder for the illuminati', Raya, to connect with a whole host of famous faces, who have been granted access to the exclusive dating site.
Sharing screenshots of Sam, reportedly taken from Raya, in which the reality star can be seen larking around with best pal, Pete Wicks in photos which display his name, age and occupation - listed as: 'Presenter/podcaster' - the Mail reports his profile on the site is active.
Sam was said to have last been seen on the app, which has been described as 'Tinder for the illuminati' because of its celebrity clients, in March, in the wake of his split from Love Islander, Zara.
Meanwhile, Zara has now moved on with One Direction star, Louis Tomlinson, which is said to have left Sam, 'blindsided'.
However, after they split, he got back out there and started dating Samie, who he had met during an episode of Love Island's Aftersun.
Last month, the pair were spotted in an intimate embrace outside the birthday party of Olivia Attwood, held at Mayfair's Bacchanalia. Cupping Samie's face in his hands, Sam seemed oblivious to onlookers as his fans got quietly excited that a new romance was on the cards.
Samie seemed positive about the relationship as she discussed her exes on the Chloe Mediumship podcast. Revealing she had a "gut feeling" in the past about things that 'weren't mean to be', she said she was currently feeling good about her relationship, saying: "There's been no bad stuff at the minute so yeah I suppose it is all positive right now. It's early days."
Meanwhile, Sam discussed being single on his podcast with co-host Pete.
He said on Staying Relevant that he felt like he was "ready to get out there", explaining: "I feel like I'm at a stage now where I feel confident enough that I can start approaching females."
He added: "I feel good, things are really really nice at the moment. And I feel like I'm happy. There's no more brave faces', causing Pete to proudly declare: 'Sam's ready to date!'."
However, it looks like Sam is back on the market and will soon be swiping up a storm as he hops back on Raya, looking for love again.

Iconic band set to hit Glastonbury in surprise set dropped major hint weeks ago
Haim are set to perform a secret set at Glastonbury Festival later today, the Mirror can reveal - but the band dropped hints to fans weeks ago Haim are set to perform a secret set at Glastonbury Festival later today - but actually revealed the news fans weeks ago. The American rock band, made up of sisters Este, Danielle and Alana Haim, last performed at Glastonbury in 2022 on the Pyramid Stage. But the girls will be performing on The Park stage this evening at 7.30pm, under the TBA slot – their favourite stage. Speaking to BBC Radio presenter Jo Whiley two weeks ago, Haim teased their fans about the not so secret slot. "We love The Park Stage," Alana said. "The Park Stage is our favourite, 'cause that was like the first time we came to Glastonbury, we got to play The Park Stage. It felt like a movie." She went on to add: "It was like, 'What is going on? How did we get here?' And also just like… you never forget the first time you step onto the farm. And it's the most insane feeling, I think, that you'll ever have. But it was incredible, it's the best festival in the world." Royal songstress Lorde graced the Woodsies stage on Friday morning, with a secret set being played to a crowd which was so packed festival bosses had to close off the area. A source told the Mirror: "It's sweltering inside the tent given the amount of people crammed inside. Bosses are urging people to stand up off the floor to make room. Some people are leaving as it's so intense." However, as the crowd spilled outside the tent, the source added: "Bosses have now shut down Woodsies as crowds are so big with a festival-wide message saying: 'Woodies is now full'." Lewis Capaldi also made a surprise appearance at Glastonbury on Friday - two years after he last performed at the festival. Back then the 28-year-old struggled to finish his set. His voice faltered as he told the crowd: "Glastonbury, I'm really sorry. I'm a bit annoyed with myself." The crowd soon took over the vocals of his hit Someone You Loved. Announcing he was taking a break from music to focus on his health, Lewis - who suffers from Tourette's and anxiety - told fans: "I feel like I'll be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks. So you probably won't see much of me for the rest of the year, maybe even. But when I do come back and when I do see you, I hope you're still up for watching us." In an emotional comeback performance, Lewis cried as he began to sing his new song Survive, which he released yesterday. He said his one goal was to get back on stage at Glastonbury as he paid tribute to the fans. Other big acts who are rumoured to be performing at Glastonbury are 90s rock band Pulp, who have just completed the UK leg of their latest tour. Frontman Jarvis Cocker has already performed a sneaky DJ set from inside a tree in the Greenpeace Field. But there are rumours the whole band could make an appearance as the mystery act billed only as Patchwork, who are due to hit the stage Saturday at 6:15pm. A source shared an exclusive photograph of the boxes – one of which is labelled with the band name Pulp. The source told us: "I spotted the sound engineer box with Pulp's name on as they were setting up during the Kaiser Chiefs set." Robbie Williams has also been dropping hints he could play three decades after he first crashed the festival as a newly-solo star. At first, fans got excited when he changed his Facebook photo to a 1995 backstage snap, but with tour dates abroad, people assumed it was off the cards. Though he has since posted two photos on X captioned simply '30 years later…' One showed a plaque reading: 'Robbie Williams entered this area without accreditation, authorisation, or alignment with prevailing taste. His presence was uninvited, unofficial and ultimately inevitable.' The second was the iconic 'Welcome to Glastonbury' sign. Good Luck, Babe! singer Chappell Roan also sparked a frenzy of speculation she could be performing a secret set. Posting a snap clutching a patchwork quilt with the caption 'insane vibe" fans wondered if she was teasing she was the Patchwork act. Fans only have a few hours to wait until all is revealed - and if you weren't lucky enough to get a ticket to this year's Glastonbury Festival you can still tune into all the coverage on BBC iPlayer.

'I tried to watch Netflix on my fiance's iPad but what I found ruined my life'
A woman has been left devastated after uncovering a disgusting family secret. A young woman has been left disgusted after uncovering a life-changing family secret. The discovery has rocked her relationship with her partner, mum, and young brother. The 24 year old opened up about the devastating situation in a post on Reddit, where she shared that she and her fiancé had been together for several years. The couple knew each other from growing up in the same area and she told how her partner's good rapport with her mother was important, given her "real-life Rory and Lorelai from Gilmore Girls" bond with her mum, reports the Mirror. Posting on the social media forum, she wrote: "My fiancé and I have been together since we were 17 and 18 years old. Honestly, he was always kind, handsome, funny and everyone used to say I was so lucky to have the whole package. "I felt so lucky too. He always treated me with love and respect, so this makes everything just so shocking for me. I have always had a good relationship with my mum. "It has always been her and I against the world. My dad died in an accident when I was little. My mum dated guys on and off and they were usually cool but nothing really passed the early stages." However, the dynamic dramatically changed when, four years prior, her mum, then aged 42, announced an unexpected pregnancy. The daughter explained: "Although she was sort of dating someone recently (I didn't meet the guy but knew she went on dates) it still was a big shock. She never thought she could be pregnant at her age (she had me when she was super young - an oopsie) and I can tell she was stressed and worried. "I decided to support her since she has always supported me and tried to reassure her. She then had my brother who is now three years old. I have a close relationship with my brother, I have helped take care of him since he was born and I just love the little guy." She shared that her fiancé also stepped in to help entertain her young brother, taking him out for ice cream, to the playground, and to the swimming pool during the summer months. "Nothing was weird - he was just my then-boyfriend spending time with my brother and me," she added. However, her world was turned upside down when she borrowed her fiancé's iPad to watch Netflix after her laptop died. She said: "At some point during binge-watching a series on Netflix, my laptop died and I was too lazy to go get my charger, so I just took my fiancé's iPad. I know the password but honestly never used it before. "The iPad logged in and I got a bunch of messages pinging (I guess he hasn't used it in a while too?). Anyway, this got my attention and I went to check it out and I found everything. My mum's number wasn't under her name but I recognised the number and verified it with my phone. "She was telling him she felt guilty and that I should know. He said he also felt guilty but couldn't lose me and they f*cked it up. "She said that it was unfair for my brother to never not know his dad, and that if he could live having his son around not behaving like a dad but a brother-in-law. I broke down. What the actual F!" Digging deeper, she found several photos of her mum pregnant, her brother as a newborn, and other snapshots of his early life. She confessed: "I couldn't any more. I cried for what seemed ages and I waited for my boyfriend to come back home. I wish I was one of those women who can pretend and get things together before confronting the cheater but I can't. "He came back later that night (around 11.30pm) and I just handed him the iPad with the conversation opened and watched his face turn pale. I demanded an explanation, when? how? why? and he was reluctant at first, but knew he had to answer. Apparently, a few years ago while I was away with some friends (girls' trip), my fiancé and mum had dinner together. "This isn't strange since he has been part of the family for so long, sometimes my mum and fiancé would eat together at our place even if I was busy with sports or out - I did the same with his parents. Somehow (unclear how since he couldn't explain it well) one thing led to another and they ended up sleeping together. "They felt guilty but apparently not guilty enough because they slept together two or three more times, using the excuse of meeting up to discuss how to tell me. Apparently, when my mum got pregnant they stopped sleeping together and decided to not tell me, since my fiancé 'loved me and couldn't lose me' and my mum didn't want to lose her daughter."

Horrified, she ended the engagement and, at the time of posting, she had not yet discussed the ordeal with her mother. She moved in with a friend and is seeking therapy because she feels unable to cope with the situation by herself. In her confusion about what steps to take next, the woman has sought guidance from online communities. She confessed: "I feel bad for my brother since I really love him, but I can't be around him now, I just can't. "I feel like it would remind me of all those times we talked about having kids, I would be his baby mama, only baby mama, we talked about this future since we were 17 years old, so I want to puke every time I think how I was actually taking care of his child with someone else, while still having those dreams. I wanna puke." Reacting to her story, one social media user expressed: "Damn. Just damn. I'm so sorry you're going through this. Seems like hell on Earth. You've got everyone here's support and keep doing you! You're doing great already and just keep moving forward, wishing you the best!". Another advised: "The best thing to do is to get into counseling, you'll want to mentally prepare yourself for the inevitable. You said it yourself, they most likely will try to confront you at either work or when you're out and about and the last thing you want is to be caught off guard and not be ready to handle that confrontation on your own!". Another user empathised: "Omg you poor thing. Betrayed by the two people, you should be able to trust the most. They are both just so disgusting. "I can never understand when you read about mothers or sisters doing this. Your mother is absolutely vile. Lowest of the low. Your ex is just trash. "You are so much better than either one of them. My heart just hurts for you. You deserve a much better mother than the one you got. Please never speak to or forgive either one of them. Cut them both dead."

Zara McDermott gets the family seal of approval as she cuddles up with boyfriend Louis Tomlinson's sister Lottie at Glastonbury
has seemingly been given the family seal of approval as she was snapped cuddling up to boyfriend Louis Tomlinson 's sister Lottie at Glastonbury on Saturday. The former Love Island star, 28, and the One Direction hunk, 33, have been dating since March, just months after her split from Made In Chelsea 's Sam Thompson, 32. The pair's relationship has gone from strength to strength, with the couple having been travelling the world together, holidaying in Costa Rica and Los Angeles. But now it seems that their relationship has the added strength of the blessing of his make-up artist sister Lottie, 26, whom he has a close bond with. Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Lottie shared a plethora of snaps from her time at the festival at Worthy Farm, which she enjoyed with Louis, Zara and fiancé Lewis Burton. Proving she was accepting of her brother's new romance, Lottie snuggled in close to Zara, who wrapped an arm around her waist, as they posed in the field together. Fans were quick to take to the comments to share their excitement over the seemingly newfound friend between Zara and her boyfriend's sister. They penned: 'YOU AND ZARA OMG'; 'You and Zara are my favorite duo!' 'Nice when your siblings and partners get along so well' 'Don't even care about the Louis and lottie post (I do) But ZARA AND LOTTIE I WANTED IT OMG.' Meanwhile, Lottie also shared a plethora of snaps from her time at the festival, with the mother-of-two looking loved up with partner Lewis. Her cheeky big brother even photobombed a photo of the couple as they attempted a romantic snap. Elsewhere, Louis' bizarre Glastonbury festival set-up has been revealed. The performer, who regularly attends the music event, has reportedly got himself a tent solely for booze as he camps out with his mates instead of staying in a hotel. Lottie also shared a plethora of snaps from her time at the festival, with the mother-of-two looking loved up with partner Lewis A source told The Mirror: 'Louis is determined to make it a weekend to remember and has planned everything with military like precision - including making sure enough booze is available. He has his own tent - and one just for the drinks.' Though Zara has been enjoying the festivities with him, she's been staying off site and not setting up camp with Louis. The source added: 'Everyone is saying it's a nice break for him and Zara but it's a great way also for Zara to meet his mates. It will definitely be a boozy one and not a particularly romantic one.' MailOnline have contacted representatives of Louis for comment. It comes after Zara and Louis put on a loved up display as they strolled hand-in-hand through Worthy Farm as Glastonbury Festival kicked off on Thursday. The couple cut low key figures as they were spotted soaking up the Somerset sun at the iconic music event. Louis wore a graphic football shirt which he teamed with black cargo trousers and shielded his famous features beneath shades and a baseball cap. Meanwhile Zara, who also sported sunglasses, wore an black adidas top with dark trousers and tied back her long blonde locks in a ponytail. It comes just hours after Louis was spotted smoking with friends in what was believed to be a lad's only trip and weekend of partying. The pop star later supported Zara, who he was first linked to in March, as she spoke on a panel for charity Refuge, for a talk entitled How to Create Societal Change: Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls.
