It comes just hours after the MailOnline revealed Sam and Samie Elishi have split after their two-month romance 'fizzled out'.
Elsewhere at the event on Wednesdau, Tasha Ghouri joined Jamie and Sophie in breaking Buckingham Palace rules as she shared photos from the King's Trust Awards.
Former Made In Chelsea stars Jamie and Sophie raised eyebrows when they cheekily filmed themselves on the Grand Staircase at the Palace, which has been traversed by Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses.
The married couple - who are expecting their first baby together - filmed themselves recreating Harry and Meghan's famous 'Baby Mama' dance in the heart of the royal residence.
The cheeky video came as a breach of Palace rules as guests were asked not to use their cameras inside Buckingham Palace during the star-studded King's Trust event.
And now, Love Island star Tasha, 26, has joined in with the apparent rule-breaking antics as she too took to Instagram to share photographs of herself on the historic staircase.
Leaning on the banister, Tasha beamed as she looked up at the historic artwork while posing for photos as she ascended the incredible staircase.
She penned: 'A lovely day yesterday with His Majesty, King Charles and had the honour of meeting the individuals who have achieved incredible things being a part of the @kingstrust programme! Today we celebrate you all!'
Guests were asked not to photograph on the Grand Staircase, which was built for Queen Victoria, and breaking the rule, Tasha leaned on the banister looking up at the historic artwork
Revealing the stars were bending the rules was Made In Chelsea favourites Jamie and pregnant wife Sophie as they cheekily filmed inside the palace breaking the rules too
On Wednesday, Jamie and Sophie had revealed they bent the rules by cheekily filming on the royal staircase - prompting a surprising response from officials.
The couple recreated Harry and Meghan's by now infamous 'Baby Mama' dance, but it is unclear whether it was a dig at the former royals.
Four years ago, they sparked huge debate after the Duchess of Sussex posted a video on Instagram of them doing the viral craze four years ago in the delivery suite shortly before she gave birth to their daughter, Princess Lilibet.
Seemingly channeling the couple with their own video, Jamie wrote: 'They said we couldn't film in Buckingham Palace.'
While the moment was most definitely a breach in protocol and could have sparked a royal meltdown, palace aides fortunately found the funny side.
Its official Instagram account 'theroyalfamily' replied to the post, saying: 'We see you' accompanied by a pair of eyes and a wink emojis.
The King's Trust entered the conversation in the spirit of the occasion, saying: 'All of our attendees are very well behaved' with the same look and a laughing emoji.
However, p resenter Fearne Cotton, who was also a guest, said: 'You also had your pap camera out with a flash. Think of what the flash has done to those priceless paintings.'
Proof that no offence was taken, a palace aide told the Mail: 'I'm sure it was done in a spirit of fun, and of course aligned to Jamie's wonderful support for The King's Trust Awards - even if it's not something we would greatly encourage every guest to attempt.'
Referring to 'theroyalfamily' account's official response, they added most definitely with tongue-in-cheek: 'Proof that from time to time the Royal Family account has a sense of humour too.
'As for Jamie, may we recommend a visit to the Tower of London. Hashtag Winkyfacelolz.'
The King's Trust was set up by King Charles when he was Prince of Wales in 1976 to help disadvantaged young people get back into education, work and training.
It has since gone on to help more than one million young people and is considered one of the biggest and most effective charities of its kind in the country.

She's just like us! Naomi Watts suffers awkward wardrobe malfunction as she steps out in New York City
Naomi Watts ensured all eyes were on her on Thursday when she stepped out in New York City. The Brides of Christ star, 56, cut a casual figure in a white dress adorned with strawberries that featured a corseted bodice and spaghetti straps. But all eyes were on the blonde beauty's choice of footwear; a pair of slippery red slingbacks that failed to do their job. As Naomi strutted into her event, one of her ankles slipped out of the hazardous footwear, throwing her picture-perfect look a curveball. Ever the professional, Naomi took the fashion blunder in her stride, proving she really is just like us. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She added to her look on the day with retro-framed sunglasses and a fire-engine red handbag. Naomi's outing comes after she attended an Armani Beauty event with her daughter, Kai Schreiber. The King Kong actress and her model daughter, 16, who she shares with actor Liev Schreiber, were among the stars at Twenty Three Grand in New York City earlier this month. Naomi looked effortlessly chic as she donned a navy sparkly smock dress, featuring a boat neckline and draping fabric with stilettos. She was joined by her daughter Kai, who had her modelling debut at Paris Fashion Week for Valentino earlier this year. For the occasion, Kai wore a black high-neck sweater covered in multicoloured polka dots with a matching skirt. Naomi was seen helping her daughter with her make-up in sweet snaps from the event. Kai, who is transgender, recently spoke in-depth about how she had struggled 'with gender identity from a young age' and 'always wanted to grow up and be a beautiful, glamorous, influential woman, like Marilyn ' Monroe. She told Interview Magazine she has studied how people in the transgender community navigated stormy waters in the past. The daughter of the Ray Donovan star, 57, and two-time Oscar nominee, 56, named figures she found inspirational 'as a young trans girl' navigating life through turbulent times for the community. 'I'm always going to look up to the older generation of transgender people, especially in fashion,' Kai told the magazine. 'People like Alex Consani, Hunter Schafer, Hari Nef, Dara, Richie Shazam, Colin Jones, and so many more,' Kai said. 'It's so great that there's a strong community of us in the fashion world; it's really a doll takeover.' The nepo baby said that she had a breakthrough earlier this year when working for the fashion house Valentino. 'That job made me realise, 'OK, this is what I want to do,' Kai said. ' I want to be a supermodel. Period.'

Phyllis Logan's puzzling whodunnit is like a spoof of Midsomer Murders, says RONALD WHITE
Murder Most Puzzling - Channel 5 About halfway through Murder Most Puzzling, actor Adam Best delivered what is surely the most whodunnit line ever: 'This is DI Hooper. A body has been found in the library.' Found? You'd have to be Chief Inspector Clouseau to have missed it. The bloodied corpse dropped from the balcony during amateur detective Cora Felton's birthday party — straight on top of the giant cake. But never mind the death, a bigger mystery was the party itself. Inspector Hooper's main job in this series is to look cross while telling Cora to mind her own business. Why would he organise her birthday party? And how do you slit a hard-bitten private investigator's throat and heave him over a balcony into a room full of police officers without anybody noticing? Murder Most Puzzling has been compared with the BBC 's hit Ludwig, mainly because Cora — like David Mitchell 's character — is a famous crossword compiler. But that's where the resemblance ends. Crosswords and logic are how Ludwig solves crimes, posing as his identical twin brother. There is also something darker lurking in the background, not to mention the suggestion that Ludwig fancies his sister-in-law. We only knew Phyllis Logan's Cora was a famous puzzler in this episode because everybody kept mentioning it. She could just as well be a celebrity chef. Her red specs were straight out of the Prue Leith eyewear range. This six-parter has none of the subtlety of Ludwig. Sometimes it was like watching a spoof episode of Midsomer Murders. There were some clever twists, but far too much seemed far too unlikely. It's a waste of Phyllis Logan, and at two hours, it's much too long (by contrast, the BBC's Death Valley is only 45 minutes). In last night's episode, Cora was hired to clear the name of a man in prison for killing his girlfriend. I don't want to give too much away, but the mayor of Bakerbury (Richard Croxford) could not have been a more obvious villain if he had a duelling scar, sported a twirly moustache, and stroked a white cat. Cora confronted him alone in his office, and it's a miracle she survived long enough to do this. Her preferred method of solving crimes seems to be meeting suspects in circumstances of obvious danger and asking if they've killed anybody recently. At least she had a gun when confronting one killer, who was caught in the act. Who knew crossword compilers were routinely armed? She also managed to force her way into the office of Mr Peacock, the rather limp governor of Bakerbury Prison and an early suspect, by bribing the guards with biscuits. Presumably, these guards were sacked following this outrageous security breach — and immediately recruited by RAF Brize Norton.
