The couple may have been together for four years, but when Sam knew he was entering the jungle for this year's I'm A Celebrity he chose to take best mate Pete Wicks as his support over girlfriend Zara. Zara told Hits Radio Breakfast show host Fleur East: "When I left Strictly I was like, 'Shall I pack my case?' and he went, 'Oh no it’s already been arranged, Pete is coming!' When I suggested maybe Pete and I could both go, he said, 'No, just Pete!'" She then joked: "You know what? It’s fine, absolutely fine."

She added: "I’ve got all the time in the world to live with him and see him. He want’s Pete at the end of that bridge and I respect it.” And in a separate Instagram post she explained to fans: "Pete is going [to Australia ]. We've had a few laughs and jokes about this. But in all seriousness; Sam thought I was still going to be in Strictly (bless him, the optimism), so Pete cleared his whole diary for 2/3 weeks to be there."
