ZARA McDermott has been begged to appear on a huge reality show to spill secrets about her Sam Thompson split, just weeks after their break up.
Zara, who shot to fame on Love Island, and Made In Chelsea star Sam Thompson recently ended their five-year-long relationship.
And it has now been revealed that the pair were trying to work things out, with their relationship on the rocks for months, before things proved to be too much for them and caused them to split.
And one show in particular has set their sights on single Zara, following the split.
A source told The Sun: “Celebs Go Dating bosses are really keen to sign Zara up for the 2025 series – she’s a huge fan favourite and they think she’d be perfect for the show and have men lining up to date her.
“It might be too soon after the split with Sam but they think she’d see the real meaning behind the show, which is about stars looking at themselves and their dating patterns.”
The popular E4 dating show sees a new batch of unlucky-in-love celebs join the agency each time.
The last series was a big hit with well-known names including Coronation Street‘s Helen Flanagan and MAFS star Ella Morgan.
The Sun has contacted E4 for comment.
Since news of their split broke, a source close to the couple told MailOnline: “Sam and Zara have ended their relationship.
“It’s been an incredibly difficult decision for them to part ways; they still care and have a lot of love for each other.
“But after a tough year of working hard at their romance, they have split and will be focusing on their individual careers going forward into 2025.
“There has been no scandal or fallout between them, it’s just the result of a difficult year, where they both had to spend a lot of time focused on their own projects.”
Fan speculation has been rife as to why the pair parted ways, with several theories coming to light.
Sam had always spoken about how he wanted to marry Zara.
Last year he said: We speak about marriage a lot, but there’s no pressure to put a ring on it.”
And in 2021 Zara was asked during an Instagram Q&A if she wanted to get married.
To which he replied: “Absolutely! I know it’s a very individual thing but I personally would love to.”
On Reddit, one fan has now speculated: “A shame but not surprising. I always found it odd how much they talked about wanting to get married one day but never got engaged.
“I always sensed Sam wasn’t sure.”
In the earlier days of their relationship, Zara confessed to having a fling with music exec Brahim Fourad while taking part in The X Factor: Celebrity in 2019.
And a source has since said: “Zara and Sam’s relationship just never had felt like it was heading for the long haul.
“They never really recovered from Zara’s cheating, most couples would have struggled lasting for as long as they did afterwards.”
