SAM THOMPSON: Our Biggest MIC Fallout & Why Jamie Finally Said Sorry

Sam Thompson and I grew up together on Made in Chelsea. What started as a friendship on the show became something much deeper - he became like a brother to me. We spoke every day and he was there for me through some of the hardest moments in my life.

Then everything changed. We had our biggest fallout and it all played out on TV.

Since then, we’ve rebuilt our friendship. I’ve watched Sam turn one of the toughest years of his life into one of his best. This conversation looks back at what broke us and what brought us back together.

We cover:

- Growing up on Made In Chelsea

- Our biggest fallout and the phone call that brought us back together

- Sam’s first heartbreak and what it’s taught him

- Wanting to be a dad and Sam’s fear that time is running out

- Why 2025 ended up being Sam’s best year yet

This conversation is about how our hardest years can end up teaching us the most - and how it’s never too late to say sorry.
