They've been regulars on the reality TV circuit for more than a decade and delivered hours of entertainment off and on screen.
But they've also clashed a number of times in the past.
It all kicked off in 2017 when Geordie Shore legend Vicky criticised Sam's sister, Louise Thompson, over her working out on holiday.
Made In Chelsea star Sam then hit back in a video of his own, saying only he was allowed to mock his sister.
The war of words quickly escalated and Vicky responded by blocking Sam on social media – a block that would last for five years.
But clearly putting that feud behind them, the pair now looked in great spirits as they posed for a photo together.
Vicky took to social media to share a carousel of images with people she's 'grateful' for.
The reality star penned to her millions of followers: 'There's been a lot to smile about recently... but mostly, it's the people in my life I feel grateful for you 🥹🩷
'Tag the people you're grateful for in my comments... and let them know what they mean to you.'

Vicky looked in great spirits as she posed with Strictly's Luba in the first photo, during a glam night out.
Then, in another shot, she could be seen standing with Sam, as he put his arm around her and gazed in her direction.
The telly stars looked delighted to be in each other's company.
Things got frosty between the pals in the past when Sam appeared on Celebrity Big Brother.
Viewers saw him get upset after he was warned in the Diary Room for flicking fellow housemate Jemma Lucy's nipple.
Vicky, appearing on Big Brother's Bit on the Side, pulled no punches.
Speaking about the incident to Rylan, she slammed his behaviour and said: 'I think there are two ways to look at this.
"One, he got upset because he knew it was a joke, Jemma knew it was a joke and he didn't mean any offence by it.
"Secondly, because he's an entitled little rat who is used to always getting what he wants.'
The 'rat' remark ensured the feud had well and truly taken root.
Despite having a mutual friend in Towie's Pete Wicks – who is Vicky's best mate and later became one of Sam's closest pals – the two reality stars stayed firmly out of each other's way.
Vicky only lifted the block on Sam in 2022 after they unexpectedly bumped into each other at a Harry Potter premiere.
But while both became close friends with Pete, they were rarely in the same room at the same time.

Chris Robshaw's stalker harasses celebs to share lies about Strictly rugby ace online despite being arrested
CHRIS Robshaw's female stalker has been harassing other celebrities, begging them to reveal false claims about the rugby ace on social media despite her arrest. Police have dismissed all allegations but there is nothing to stop them being spread online. 5 Chris Robshaw's stalker has been harassing celebs to share lies about him and wife Camilla Kerslake online Credit: Getty 5 Narinder Kaur, a panellist on Channel 5's Jeremy Vine, was one of the celebs approached Credit: Chris McAndrew For The Times 5 Chris' ordeal started last July when he attended the same event as the woman Credit: Getty The woman, who we are not naming, is understood to have left the country and is on the National Police Wanted List. But The Sun can reveal she has this week been messaging stars with outlandish claims about the ex-England skipper, 39, and his wife Camilla Kerslake as she is 'intent to ruin him'. One celebrity approached is broadcaster Narinder Kaur, who is a panellist on Channel 5's Jeremy Vine. She flagged the worrying messages to police and Robshaw's team. A source close to Chris said: 'Police were made aware of her claims, they spoke to the long list of people she had 'accused' and decided not to take further action. 'But she is intent on ruining Chris and a host of other people and is attempting to convince others that she is a victim, when actually she is on the National Wanted List. 'She has started calling companies Chris and Camilla were working with to tell them these lies and now is messaging celebrities with the farcical claims in the hope one of them will post about it.' Friends now hope that any celebrities approached will not pay the woman any attention and flag the notes to police. They say Chris' ordeal started last July when he attended the same event as the woman. Chris alerted police when her threats became physical and towards his two children, and learnt that the woman was already known for similar behaviour. Strictly Come Dancing 2025 lineup IN FULL - including Game of Thrones star & famous YouTuber The friend added: 'Poor Camilla has been pulled into this for no reason at all. 'She hasn't even met the woman. 'This all started after she fell out with a previous employer over formal warnings for unprofessional conduct. 'She is obsessed with trying to ruin lives. 'Time and again, she's made vile false claims about innocent people. 'She's a serial offender - that's why she's now a wanted person. 'Police are being inundated with evidence against the wanted individual." Chris, who retired from professional rugby union in 2022, alerted the BBC about the issues when he signed up to appear on Strictly Come Dancing. The Corporation has been supporting him but the lad is determined to make this about dancing, not drama. The pal added: 'Chris has said to friends that he completely understands if Strictly had withdrawn their offer - he even admitted he felt like a bit of a burden on those he's working with. 'DANCING NOT DRAMA' 'Chris doesn't want special treatment just because he's on TV. 'He feels strongly that what's happening to him happens to countless others without the same spotlight. 'Whilst he could sue this individual for defamation, it's obvious there are some mental health issues here, and therefore he doesn't want to drag her through the courts as he believes she won't get the help she needs. 'Chris is determined to make this about dancing, not drama.' The Sun understands the stalker was arrested in December and released with a caution. But those close to Chris said her harassment has continued and she has now left the country. The Sun approached his spokeswoman for comment. 5 Chris is part of this year's Strictly Come Dancing line-up Credit: ITV

Katie Taylor reflects on 'devastating lows and amazing highs' in touching post
Katie Taylor has paid tribute to those in her inner circle who have stood by her side through the good times and the bad. Fresh off defeating Amanda Serrano for a third consecutive time, Taylor has been taking to social media to show respect to those closest to her. Last week, she posted a heartfelt message for her father, Pete, who returned to her corner for the Serrano trilogy fight after many years staying away from her boxing career. This week, the 'Bray bomber' took to Instagram to thank her friends, family and coaches for being by her side through 'devastating lows and amazing highs.' "You never win alone. Only by the grace of God. A collective effort from those who believed in me. Those who walked this journey with me, the devastating lows and amazing highs. Unending encouragement. Unconditional love. Family. Coach. Friends. My team," wrote Taylor on Instagram as a caption on a picture of herself with her loved ones. In the photo, which was taken backstage following her win over Serrano, members of Taylor's family - such as her mother Bridget - can be seen, while the likes of promoter Eddie Hearn, manager Brian Peeters and trainer Ross Enamait can also be seen. That win marked the end of her rivalry with Serrano, who she has fought three times since 2022. What comes next for Taylor is anybody's guess. It had been rumoured that the third Serrano bout would be her final ever contest, but weeks on from that win, Taylor has yet to make a definitive statement on her future. While her fighting career is shrouded in mystery, dad Pete shed light on her personal life as he confirmed that Katie was married after the undisputed super-lightweight champion was spotted wearing a wedding ring in the weeks leading up to the Serrano trilogy fight.

Carms took to social media to show off her incredible new life, which is located on a farm. 3 Carm moved her family-of-four to the Scottish coast Credit: 3 Now they live off-grid in two caravans Credit: 3 She left the Blackpool council estate to give her kids a better life Credit: Alamy She revealed that she and her partner, Kieran and their youngest daughter live in one larger caravan while her eldest daughter lives in another right beside them. In the clip, she said: "We've come from a literal council estate in Blackpool to this gorgeousness because we had just had enough and were like f**k it. "We wanted a better life for the kids." She showed viewers around the land she and her husband now lived on while in her pyjamas, admitting it was Kieran's hard work putting it all together. The family has decided to live off-grid at the farm, using a generator for power and solar panels. They also have installed a large water tank for their supplies. The farm is in working order and Carms and Kieran have sheep, pigs and dogs on the land. Despite going from a bustling city to the middle of nowhere, she revealed they couldn't be happier. " That's how we live, off-grid," she added. "Out of the rat race and into a beautiful rural area where my kids can play and be safe. And I've got my animals. Woman left stunned as she makes shocking discovery worth thousands after lifting up 'cheap' flooring in her council flat "It's all just very beautiful. I mean it's hard work. But. We're f**king buzzing with it." The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @carmsmula88 with 11k views and many took to the comments to share their thoughts on their new way of life. Social Media Reacts One person wrote: "I would love to live out in a rural area all the best for you all." Another commented: "Totally don't blame you. I wish my partner was up for this. Wishing you the best." "I'm Scottish & you have picked well you're children will get an excellent education good luck," penned a third. Moving house hacks 1. Declutter Before You Pack Sort through your belongings and get rid of anything you no longer need. Donate, sell, or recycle items to lighten your load. 2. Create an Inventory Make a list of all your items. This helps keep track of everything and ensures nothing gets lost in the move. 3. Use Quality Packing Materials Invest in sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape. This will protect your belongings during the move. 4. Label Everything Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This makes unpacking much easier and more organized. 5. Pack a 'First Day' Box Include essentials like toiletries, a change of clothes, snacks, and important documents. This will keep you from rummaging through boxes on your first day. 6. Take Photos of Electronics Setup Before unplugging your electronics, take photos of the wiring setup. This will make it easier to reconnect everything at your new place. 7. Use Suitcases for Heavy Items Pack books and other heavy items in rolling suitcases. This makes them easier to transport and reduces the risk of injury. 8. Colour-Code Your Boxes Use different coloured stickers or markers for each room. This will help movers quickly identify where each box should go in your new home. Meanwhile, a fourth said: "I can't fault you and I completely understand. I can't big you up enough because you want a better life and what you are passionate about is your kids being SAFE." "This is a dream to me. Wouldn't have a clue where to start though,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: "Lovely little life."
