Sam Thompson surprised many when he purchased a Cartier ring, but it wasn’t for his long-term girlfriend, Zara McDermott, even after being together for five years.
Well, Sam Thompson, 31, and Zara McDermott, 27, started dating in 2019 after she slid into his DMs. Despite a brief split, they’re now “stronger by a mile.”
The couple is often likened to Justin and Hailey Bieber, though marriage isn’t in their plans. Surprisingly, the Cartier ring Sam bought after I’m A Celebrity was for someone else special.
Pete Wicks, Sam’s best mate, played a significant role in supporting him. Sam wanted to express his gratitude, stating, “He came to Australia, and I wanted to give him a gift that shows my eternal love.”
Pete’s presence, for a couple of weeks, constant communication with Sam’s family, and support showcased their strong friendship.
Cartier offers a variety of rings, with the 1985 Wedding Band starting at £760 and the iconic Love Wedding Band priced at £1,200.
Sam Thompson, 31, expresses commitment to Zara McDermott but feels no rush for marriage. He says, “We speak about marriage a lot, but there’s no pressure to put a ring on it.” He was crowned “King of the Jungle” in 2023, and treasures friendship.
Also, Sam Thompson, from Made In Chelsea, eyes £2 million post-victory. He reveals post-ADHD diagnosis documentary success. He states, “I want to do a lot more stuff on ADHD and neurodiversity in general because I can’t believe how many people got in touch.”
