Sam Thompson has dispelled any speculations about relationship issues shortly after posting a mysterious message that caused concern among some fans. The 33-year-old TV personality has been romantically involved with DJ and model Talitha Balinska for a couple of months, but they made their relationship public just last month. Despite an Instagram photo in early January where Sam appeared alone with his cat, hinting at possible problems, he has now quashed those rumors with a new social media post.
On Friday, Sam shared a selfie with Talitha on his Instagram stories, both looking happy with a red heart emoji added to the image. After a period of courtship, Sam announced in early December that he and Talitha had officially become a couple. During a conversation with his close friend Pete Wicks on their podcast, Sam confirmed their relationship progress, expressing his feelings and asking Talitha to be his girlfriend.
The couple first met in 2023 at a photoshoot and reconnected earlier this year at one of Sam’s arena events. Sam returned from filming in Australia for I’m A Celeb’s spin-off show Unpacked in December, while Talitha settled into his £3 million Chelsea home during his absence. Sam introduced Talitha to his sister Louise, her partner Ryan, and their son Leo, marking a significant step in their relationship.
This new romance marks Sam’s first relationship since his split from Zara McDermott, who is now dating former One Direction member Louis Tomlinson. The couple spent last year’s festive season apart and later confirmed their breakup due to diverging career paths and life aspirations. Despite facing challenges like past infidelity, Sam and Zara decided to go their separate ways.
