Across the weekend, Samie was pictured kissing Sam on a night out, confirming rumours that they had secretly been seeing each other since his split from Zara McDermott.

But it seems like their new loved-up romance was on the cards – literally, thanks to a tarot reading.
In a new podcast episode, Samie appeared on We Talk To The Dead, speaking to medium Chloe Smith about what lay in her past, present and future.
Turning her 'now' cards, Chloe told Samie that the card drawn depicts 'falling in love and being swept off your feet', informing her that somebody good was entering your life.
However, she was warned 'you need to make sure not to let anybody else get involved'. 'This is your life in your future, and it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks,' she said.
'So it does feel that you are talking to somebody, but do the things that make your heart flutter, it doesn't matter what anybody else's opinion is.'
When later asked about whether she ever trusted her 'gut feeling' – which Chloe believes is a 'spirit connecting' – Samie admitted: 'I've had like, a couple of relationships, where I've known it was never 'it'.
"Like, I have something telling me every day this is gonna come to an end, like this isn't for you.
'I would know that, [but] put it to the back of your mind, and you start noticing the chaos increase,' Samie said.
'It's like the universe saying I'm gonna blow you both up if you just do not separate, and then I'm like, if only I listened, like when I got that first message.'
When Chloe asked her if that's how she feels about the new person she's seeing, or if she feels this person could be 'The One', Samie coyly responded: 'There's been no bad stuff, So, yeah.
Loved up Sam Thompson and Samie Elishi seen holding hands in cute moment as they dance at party together
'I suppose it is all positive right now. It's early days.'
Samie and Sam's romance has been heating up in recent days, with both seen looking cosy together as they partied at Olivia Attwood's birthday bash.
The couple posed for photos together and were seen holding hands inside the party.
"Things between Sam and Samie are really hotting up. Sam has introduced Samie to many of his friends now including some of the Made In Chelsea cast," an unnamed source told Daily Mail.

"The biggest test came on Saturday night at Olivia's birthday party when Samie met Sam's best friend Pete for the first time."
The source added: "But Pete absolutely loves Samie for Sam and thinks they really suit, which has only brought them closer together."
"Although she would hate to admit it, Samie is smitten and they really like each other."
Outside of the exclusive bash, the duo could barely keep their hands off each other, as they shared a kiss in the street.
They were later seen in great spirits as linking arms while walking down the same road.
This was after Sam and Zara called time on their relationship in December, with Zara now being seen getting close to Louis Tomlinson.

Pregnant Shaughna Phillips shares surprise over second baby's gender

Love Island star Shaughna Phillips, who only recently announced her pregnancy, teased her baby's gender in a recent social media post Love Island star Shaughna Phillips teased the gender of her baby in a social media post shared with fans during a Q&A session. The TV personality, who got pregnant with her second child with boyfriend Billy Webb while he was still serving prison time, announced her pregnancy last week. During a Q&A with her Instagram followers, one fan asked: "So pleased for you! Are you going to find out the gender?" Shaughna shared a screengrab of herself from a longer video where she was seen with her mouth wide open in shock. She wrote: "We do know the gender, this was my reaction." ‌ ‌ The star added she's due to give birth in November but will be undergoing a C-Section after having a 'rough' birth with daughter Lucia, who she also shared with convicted drug dealer Billy. Speaking about Lucia's birth, she said: "Induction, 2 days labour, pushed for an hour and she was not moving, She got really stressed and was rushed for forceps which FAILED because she turned around, and then she was rushed for an emergency C-Section and ended up with a postpartum haemorrhage." The star got pregnant during a brief home visit from her boyfriend Billy Webb – who's currently serving a nine-year sentence for Class A drug offences. Billy was sentenced to nine years in prison pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply 4.5 kilograms of cocaine worth at least £360,000. Shaughna said she planned the pregnancy, even tracking her ovulation to boost her chances of conceiving, but was stunned that her baby dream came true so quickly. ‌ 'It was the first time that my ovulation window coincided with Billy being home,' Shaughna said to The Mirror. 'I was like, 'You know what? Why not? Let's just see'. And literally, the next day, I said to Billy, 'I think I'm pregnant.'' Her gut feeling was confirmed ten days later, when multiple pregnancy tests showed up positive. 'I found out very, very early on,' she added. 'I was doing maybe five tests a day. I'm not even exaggerating.' Shaughna said Billy, who went to jail in 2023, is allowed out on home visits"a few days" every month. ‌ And while she has so far been forced to raise her daughter as a single parent, the star says Billy is due for early release and should be reunited with his family in time for their new arrival. 'I know the date that he's due to be home, but I'm not saying it just because anything could happen,' she added. 'But hopefully he will be fully home before my baby is due.'

'No-one believes my real age thanks to ageing things I never do'

'No-one believes my real age thanks to ageing things I never do' Nerys has listed all the 'older woman' things she avoids, from cutting her hair to eating junk food A woman says she regularly gets told she looks 20 years younger that her real age and has explained her anti-ageing tricks – including keeping her hair long and watching Love Island. Nerys Middleton, 52, says people often assume she's in her early 30s – and believes it's partly down to her long locks and youthful outlook on life. The mum-of-one says she doesn't believe in following old-school rules about what women should look like past a certain age. 'People tell me they think I'm in my 30s because of the way I am,' said the fashion influencer, from North Wales. ‌ 'I hang around with people in their 30s, so they talk about what 30‑year‑olds talk about, like Love Island. I say to my older friends, 'Have you watched Love Island?' and they're like, 'God no, I wouldn't watch that.' It's just little things like that. ‌ 'People also tell me I'm too old to have long hair, but when you look at people like Cindy Crawford, they all still have long hair, haven't they? As long as it's healthy and you look after it, there's no reason it can't be longer over 50. Nerys when she was 30 (Jam Press) 'Cutting it short is an old‑fashioned thing my mum did.' Article continues below Nerys says she spends about £400 a month on vitamins, skincare and beauty treatments – and sees it as part of maintaining her health and confidence. The mum ensures she uses retinol and vitamin C treatments alongside CO2 laser facials and hydrofacials every few months. She's also been getting Botox in her forehead since she was 29, wears SPF 50 every single day and doesn't drink or smoke. But Nerys says keeping a younger mindset is the most important part of maintaining her youthful looks. She said: 'Mostly it's my mindset. I think if you think old, you become old. If you start thinking, 'Oh God, my back's aching, my legs are aching,' you start dressing old, you start acting old. ‌ 'I think it helps if you have younger friends. Most of my friends I met through work are younger than me and we get on because I have a young mindset. My older friends are all married and settled – a bit fuddy-duddy. Nerys puts he looks down to avoiding certain things and having the right mindset (Jam Press) 'I spend a lot of time with young friends. We go on holidays, we go clubbing in Budapest. I wouldn't go away with people my own age; they don't like going out and partying. I think it's not just about looks, it's how you act. Because I've got younger friends, we talk about younger things and I spend a lot of time with them. ‌ 'My older friends talk about what they're crocheting.' Nerys says she also religiously stays out of the sun, doesn't drink alcohol and steers clear of junk food – all in order to feel and look her best. Style-wise, she avoids florals, ripped jeans or anything that feels like she's 'trying too hard'. Nerys says she regularly gets told she looks 20 years younger (Jam Press) Article continues below The mum said: 'It stems down to clothes and things like that. Try and keep make-up to a minimum and see what trends are out there; see what other women are wearing. But don't follow like a sheep – try and think of trends yourself. 'I stay away from anything floral unless you have a really young face. Stay away from ripped jeans and ethnic shorts because they make you look like you're trying too hard. It's the balance in between. You can either look frumpy or look trashy. 'I'm trying to tell people about this balance that's in the middle that can make you look classy, sophisticated and young. It annoys me when people say, 'You don't look 52' and I think, no, I shouldn't – I work hard to look the way I do. You have to.'

Love Island fans slam Ben's 'horrible' behaviour after explosive row with Yasmin

Love Island viewers hit out at Ben's 'immature' and 'horrible' behaviour after he had a explosive row with Yasmin Love Island fans have hit out at Ben's 'horrible' and 'immature' behaviour after he called Yasmin 'irrelevant' in an explosive row. The 23-year-old taxi driver was coupled up with Yasmin, 24, and they were seemingly getting close under the covers in bed before everything suddenly went south. On Thursday night, Ben told the boys he wasn't interested in Yasmin anymore before telling her: "I feel like we went from 0 to 100 real quick, and I'm going to be taking a step back." He later admitted to Shakira he never had proper feelings for Yasmin and claimed she initiated intimacy between them while in bed and was "all over him". ‌ Shakira went to tell Yasmin what Ben told her and Toni encouraged her to confront him for his behaviour. "Someone needs to give Ben a piece of their mind and you're the perfect one," Toni said. ‌ Yasmin went to speak to Ben but he kept putting her down and interrupted her to ask her: "Are you done ranting?" Yasmin remided him it "wasn't the Ben show" and the " world doesn't revolve around" him. "It's taking everything in me not to snap," she said. While walking away from the tense row, Ben shouted at her: "This is amazing content... You've just given Love Island three weeks of content," as she branded him immature.. He didn't stop yelling after her, telling her "no man wants you in here" before claiming: "Yasmin is the most irrelevant girl I've ever met." Fans were furious by how Ben was behaving and rushed to social media to slam the taxi driver, with one person writing on X: "Ben is genuinely disturbing, like his behaviour is horrible." ‌ "Ben resorting to insults. Immature. Bye Felicia," another said while one reminded him: "'Yasmin's the most irrelevant girl i've ever met' ben your only screen time has been whenever you disrespect one of the girls or when shakira dumped u." "Nah ben is actually a disgusting person. the way he just spoke about yas and treated her there was genuinely one of the most uncomfortable things i've sat through. he is a real nasty piece of work," one posted. Others praised Yasmin for how she handled the situation, with an impressed fan commenting: "'You're a fucking idiot' PERIOD YASMIN DRAG HIS ASS!! He really tried blaming Yasmin for everything what a loser he's just weird …" ‌ Another quoted her: "'you think it's the ben show and it's not' oh yasmin is eating him up."
