Zara McDermott shared a cryptic social media post hours after Pete Wicks and her ex Sam Thompson’s podcast was shared
Zara McDermott took to social media to reveal she has had an “emotional day”.
Her cryptic Instagram post on Wednesday showed a snap of an ocean sunset. It comes as she continues her trip in Thailand where she is filming her latest documentary. She shared on the upload: “Having an emotional day. This sunset made me feel better.”
Her words come just hours after former TOWIE star Pete Wicks teased his best pal – and Zara’s ex – Sam Thompson for “crying” over Zara. The duo were speaking on their Staying Relevant podcast when Pete made the dig.
They were discussing Zara and Sam’s last TV appearance together before their shock split in December. The former couple appeared on Michael McIntyre’s Big Show to take part in the Midnight Gameshow skit. The scenes were awkwardly aired just weeks after their split.
Speaking on the podcast, Pete said: “We’re going to talk through our staying relevant moments from the week. Sam’s has mostly consisted of crying but there has been other things that have happened.”
Sam was heard awkwardly laughing before speaking of his appearance on the comedy show. He said: “It’s been one hell of a week. It happened a while ago that we filmed this as you can probably tell by watching it.”
Sarcastically, Pete asked why before Sam said: “Just happened a while ago and there were two people in the bed and… f***. I’ve got a dry mouth, I’ve really panicked and I don’t know why.”
The scenes the duo were talking of showed Sam and Zara get surprised by comedian Michael at their Chelsea home. Michael and a film crew snuck in and woke them up in bed and challenged them to answer questions from three custard pie wielding Love Island stars.
Weeks later and the pair were no longer an item. A source told OK! last month that despite their best efforts to salvage their relationship, it just wasn’t meant to be. The insider said: “Although they have known it’s been over for a while, Sam and Zara are both devastated and heartbroken that they couldn’t make it work as they had so much love for each other.”
They added: “When they had problems in the summer they vowed to give it one more try and hoped that they could work through their issues, but it proved impossible as they were just at different stages in their lives.”
